Answer:

A. 1.2x = 78

B. x = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Just informally, first:

x is the number that we don't know. 120% of that number is a number BIGGER than that number. 120% of x is 78. So 78 is BIGGER than the number that we don't know.

120% of x = 78

Change 120% to a decimal by moving the decimal two places to the left. Multiply.

1.2x = 78

To solve, divide both sides by 1.2

x = 78/1.2

x = 65

The ratio of tickets sold to see the incredible musical wicked to tickets sold to see Cats is 11 to 7 if there were 2700 total t
tia_tia [17]
Use algebra to set up 2 equations.

Assign c as number of tickets for CATS and w for number of tickets of WICKED

c + w = 2700

c / w = 7 / 11

Then solve for one of them in the first equation

c = 2700 - w

Then put this value for c into the 2nd equation

(2700 - w) / w = 7 / 11

Now cross multiply the numerator by denominator of both numerator and denominator pairs

7w = 11 x (2700 - w)
7w = 29700 - 11w

Now solve for w

7w = 26700 - 11w

Add +11w to both sides

18w = 29700

Now divide by 18 on both sides

w = 1650

Then c is the remainder of that ... 2700 - 1650 = 1050

You can also check because 7 / 11 = 1050 / 1650

Twice a number, increased by 3 is the same as five less than four times a number.what is the number?
zzz [600]

Answer:

x = 4, hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3 = 4x - 5

-2x -2x

3 = 2x -5

+5 +5

8 = 2x

divide by 2 on both sides

4 = x

switch where the x and 4 is, because teachers seem to like that

x = 4
