Step-by-step explanation:

let

adult ticket = x

youth ticket = y

1). 2x+3y = 134

2). 3x+2y = 146

*then multiply line 1). by the first number of line 2).

*then multiply line 2). by the first number of line 1).

1). (2x+3y = 134 ) x 3 = (6x + 9y = 402)

2). (3x+2y = 146) x 2 = (6x + 4y = 292)

*subtract new line 2). from new line 1).

5y = 110

y = 110/5 = $22

This is the value for youth ticket.

If another question asks for adult you do as follows:

*put this value for y in either original equation, I'll chose line 1).

2x+3y = 134

2x + (3x22) = 134

2x + 66 = 134

2x = 68

X = 68/2 = $34.

Hope the explanation helps, let me know if you need any further explanation

Answer:

Let x be the price of an adult ticket and y be the price of a youth ticket.

One family spends $134 on 2 adult tickets and 3 youth tickets so we can write: 2x+3y=134

Another family spends $146 on 3 adult tickets and 2 youth tickets so we can write: 3x+2y=146

We need to find y so we eliminate x. Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 2 to obtain (3) and (4): 6x+9y=402

6x+4y=292

Subtract (3) and (4) and solve for y: 5y=110

y=22→$22

Solve for x<br> And show work
klemol [59]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Because the line the angles x + 96 and 100 + x are on is straight, it's a straight angle that results in 180°.

2. Given the above information, that means x + 96 + 100 + x = 180.

3. (Solving for equation above)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

  • (x+x) + (96+100)=180
  • 2x + 196 = 180

Step 2: Subtract 196 from both sides.

  • 2x + 196 - 196 = 180 - 196
  • 2x = -16

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

  • \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{-16}{2}
  • x = -8

Step 4: Check if solution is correct.

  • -8 + 96 + 100 - 8 = 180
  • 88 + 100 - 8 = 180
  • 188-8=180
  • 180=180

Therefore, x = -8.

What the same as 1.4
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

\frac{7}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make 1.4 as a fraction, and it will be the same but in a different form.

So, to make a decimal by a fraction, you make 1.4 into a whole number. 1.4 will be 14.

Now, the denominator will be 10.

So, when you simplify \frac{14}{10}, which is \frac{7}{5}

Somebody pls!! “Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-<br> intercept form.”
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

y = 3/5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope (rise / run of the line) and b is y-intercept (y value of where the line intersects with the y-axis.

The line is rising up 3 and run to the right 5 and so it's slope is 3/5. The line intersects with the y-axis at a y value of 5 and so it's y-intercept is 5.

Therefore, your answer in slope-intercept form is y = 3/5x + 5.

A school bought pens, each costing $1, and pencils, each costing $0.5. The cost of the whole purchase was $220. How many pens an
Aleks [24]

Answer:

<u>The number of pens = 120 and the number of pencils = 200</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pens x, and the number of pencils is y

the cost of one pen $1, and the cost of one pencil $0.5

The cost of the whole purchase was $220

1 * x + 0.5 * y = 220

x + 0.5 y = 220 ⇒ eq.(1)

there were 80 more pencils than pens

y - x = 80 ⇒ eq.(2)

from eq.(2) x = y - 80

By substitution with x from the last equation at eq.(1)

∴ (y - 80) + 0.5 y = 220

1.5y = 220 + 80 = 300

y = 300/1.5 = 200

x = y - 80 = 200 - 80 = 120

<u>So, the number of pens = 120 and the number of pencils = 200</u>
