Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.
Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.
Using the substitution method:
x + y = 300 ⇒ y = 300 - x ⇒ Equation (3)
12x + 8y = 3280 ⇒ 12x + 8(300-x) = 3280 ⇒ x = 220
y = 300 - x ⇒ y = 300-220 ⇒ 80
Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.
Answer:
x/100 x 8 = 6
8x/100 = 6
x100 x100
8x = 600
Divide by 8 on both sides:
X = 75
Consider a percent out of 100. 'Of' meaning multiplication. 'is' meaning equal to that number.
(unknown number/percent)x/100 x 8(of 8) = 6(is 6)
Answer:
0.95
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
45x + 180 = - 720
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required number be x.
Therefore, product of 45 and x = 45x
180 added to 45x = 45x + 180
Since, 180 Added to the product of 45 and a number totals negative 720.
So, 45x + 180 = - 720
