Answer:
Jim carried 4 grocery bags.
Step-by-step explanation:
16 is the total, and if you divide that up by 4, you get 4 (you divide by 4 because it is in fourths). Because Byron carried 3/4's, you multiply four by three to get twelve. There is only one more fourth to complete the whole to get to 16, so Jim is carrying four bags.
To check this, we can take Byron's 12 bags (3/4), and subtract that from 16 (4/4):
16-12=4 (1/4), so our answer is correct
1. x = cost of one adult ticket
y= cost of one child ticket
2x+3y=31.60
x+2y=18.60 l multiply by -2
2x+3y=31.60
-2x-6y=-37.2
-3y=-5.6
y=1.87
2x+3(1.87)=31.60
2x+5.6=31.60
2x=31.60-5.6
2x=26
x=26/2
x=13
Answer: The adult ticket is $13 and the child ticket is $1.87
New York is man-made because of the buildings and the statues. None of it was already there before the settlers came. With its big shops and known for a party city, none of this came there with the world.
