At the zoo, the Spencer family bought 3 adult tickets and 2 children's tickets for $23.50. The Yang family bought 2 adult tickets and 4 children's tickets for $25. How much would the Diaz family spend if they bought 3 adults tickets and 1 children's ticket?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Diaz family spend $ 20 if they bought 3 adults tickets and 1 children's ticket

Solution:

Let "a" be the cost of each adult ticket

Let "c" be the cost of each student ticket

The Spencer family bought 3 adult tickets and 2 children's tickets for $23.50

Therefore, we frame a equation as:

3 * a + 2 * c = 23.50

3a + 2c = 23.50 --------- eqn 1

The Yang family bought 2 adult tickets and 4 children's tickets for $25

Therefore, we frame a equation as:

2 * a + 4 * c = 25

2a + 4c = 25 ----------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 by 2

6a + 4c = 47 ---------- eqn 3

Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3

6a + 4c = 47

2a + 4c = 25

( - ) --------------

4a = 47 - 25

4a = 22

Divide both sides of equation by 4

a = 5.5

Substitute a = 5.5 in eqn 1

3(5.5) + 2c = 23.50

16.5 + 2c = 23.50

2c = 23.50 - 16.5

2c = 7

Divide both sides of equation by 2

c = 3.5

Thus, cost of each adult ticket = $ 5.5

Cost of each student ticket = $ 3.5

How much would the Diaz family spend if they bought 3 adults tickets and 1 children's ticket?

Total cost = 3a + 1c

Total cost = 3(5.5) + 1(3.5) = 16.5 + 3.5

Total cost = 20

Thus Diaz family spend $ 20

A 100-pound person on Earth would weigh about 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 pounds on Jupiter. Evaluate the expression to determine how much a 100-pound person would weigh on Jupiter.

Answers

Answer:

\text{Weight on Jupiter} = (25)/(64)* (\text{Weight on earth})

Step-by-step explanation:

A 100 pound person on earth weigh 4×4×4×4 pounds on Jupiter.

4×4×4×4 pounds weight = 256 pounds

Therefore ratio of the weights on earth and Jupiter = 100 : 256

= 25 : 64

Let a person weigh x pounds on Earth therefore the expression which represents the weight of the person on Jupiter will be

\frac{\text{Weight on Jupiter}}{\text{Weight on Earth}}=(25)/(64)

\text{Weight on Jupiter} = (25)/(64)* (\text{Weight on earth})

he would weigh 25,600 pounds on Jupiter

An office supply store sells report covers at 3 for $0.96. If the rate remains the same, how much will 10 covers cost? Please show your work. Explain.

Answers

We can use a proportion to figure this out.If we get 3 for 0.96 (3/0.96) how many can we get for 10 (10/x)?So far it should look like this 3/0.96= 10/xNow we cross multiply. 0.96 times 10 is 9.6 and 3 times x is 3x. To get rid of the 3 we divide by it to get x alone. So 9.6 divided by 3 equals 3.2. I hope that this helps you. Try writing out the proportion of you don't understand! :)

5.x=1/4


x=1/20


answer is B
to find the answer you need to set up the equation 5x = 1/4 then divide each side if the equal sign by 5 so can single out x. it would be 5x dived by 5 and 1/4 divided by 5 which is x = 1/20
