Answer:
Adults $ 17
Students: $8
Step-by-step explanation:
Adults: x
Students: y
a) 25x + 31y = 673
b) 27x +31y = 707
Elimination:
a) -1(25x + 31y = 673) = -25 -31y = -673
a + b
= (-25 -31y = -673) + (27x + 31y = 707)
= 2x = 34
x = 34/2
x = 17
Substitution a or b:
a) 25(17) + 31y = 673
425 + 31y = 673
31y = 673 - 425
31y = 248
y = 248/31
y = 8

Answer:
X1 = 2 Y1 = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
math simple slope
x is your starting running time. 1/10 of a minute is 6 seconds, so you can do x - 6(6). 6 times 6 = 36, so your answer is x - 36 seconds. 36 seconds.
2x+4-3x>-1
-x+4>-1
-x>-1-4
-x>-5
X<-5/-1
Hence x<5
