If two adults and three children go to the movies, it costs $31.50. If one adult and five children go to the movies, it costs $35.00. What is the cost of one adult movie ticket? $5.50 $6.50 $7.50

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The adult ticket would cost $7.50
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

The kids is 5.50 adult is 7..50

Step-by-step explanation:

we create an equation

2x + 3y =31.50

and

1x + 5y=35.00

1x is just x so we subtract 5y from both sides

x= 35.00-5y

fill x with 35.00-5y

2(35.00 - 5y) + 3y = 31.50

70.00 - 10y +3y = 31.50

-10y + 3y = -38.50

-7y=-38.50

-7y/-7= -38.50/-7

y=5.50

In a video game,a guppy that escapes a net turns into three goldfish.Each goldfish can turn into two betta fish.Each betta fish can turn into two angelfish.Write and evaluate an expression for the number if angelfish that can be formed from one guppy.

Answers

If g=guppy, go=goldfish, b=bettafish and a=angelfish we can set up expressions for each set of fish.
1g=3go
1go=2b
1b=2a

By working backwards and substituting we can finally work out 1 guppy to be equal to 12 angelfish.

a book store bought 160 copies of a book from the publisher for $4,000. If the store gives away 2 books, how much money will it lose?

Answers

4000 divide by 160 to get the cost of each book 
4000 / 160 = 25
So that's £25 per book, multiply that by two because they gave two away which is £50 so they lost £50
