Answer:

x = -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equation: -(x+4)-3x=x

Remember distributive property allows us to get rid of the parenthesis by bringing a multiplication from outside to inside a parenthesis.

-(x+4) = -x-4

= -x-4-3x=x

Now we combine like terms in this case we have (-x) and (-3x)

= -4x-4=x

Subtract x from both sides

= -4x-4=x

  -x      -x

----------------

 -5x-4=0

Add 4 to both sides

-5x-4=0

    +4 +4

---------------

-5x=4

Our final step is to divide both sides by -5

-5x=4

----  ----

-5    -5

x = -4/5

Hope this helps!!!

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

c = price of child ticket = $4.25

a = price of adult ticket = $4.25 + $1.00 = $5.25

Step-by-step explanation:

A child ticket costs c and an adult ticket costs a = c + 1.

21 children pay c dollars each for admission, and

3 teachers pay c + 1 dollars each for admission.

Thus,

21c + 3(c + 1) = $105, and

21c + 3c + 3 = $105, so that:

24c = $102

c = price of child ticket = $4.25

a = price of adult ticket = $4.25 + $1.00 = $5.25
