Answer:

  • 9 student tickets and 8 general admission tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of student tickets is s and general admission tickets - g.

<u>Set equations and solve:</u>

  • s + g = 17
  • 2s + 3g = 42

<u>Double the first equation and subtract from the second to eliminate s:</u>

  • 2s + 3g - 2s - 2g = 42 - 2*17
  • g = 8

<u>Find s:</u>

  • s = 17 - 8 = 9

Solve for d. -5d – 16d + -14d + 8d – -13d = -14
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
-5d – 16d + -14d + 8d – -13d = -14
-5d-16d-14d+8d+13d=-14
-21d-14d+8d+13d=-14
-35d+8d+13d=-14
-27d+13d=-14
-14d=-14
÷-14 both sides

Jen has 3 bags of pears. If Jen gives the same number of pears to 4 friends. How many pears will each friend get
NISA [10]

Answer:

Each friend will get<u> 3 </u>pears.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete and the complete question is:

Jen has 3 bags of pears. Each bag has 5 pears. If Jen gives the same number of pears to 4 friends, how many pears will each friend get?

Now, to find the number of pears each of the 4 friends get:

So, as given:

Number of bags of pears = 3.

Number of pears each bag has = 5.

Thus:

Total number of pears = 3\times 5=15.

Total number of friends =  4.

So, to get the number of pears each get we divide total number of pears by total number of friends:

15\div 4

=3.75.

<u><em>Thus, if Jen gives same number pears to 4 friends 3 pears each will get.</em></u>

Therefore, each friend will get 3 pears.
