Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. The combined cost of one advance ticket and one same-day ticket is $35
. For one performance,
40
advance tickets and
30
same-day tickets were sold. The total amount paid for the tickets was
$1250
. What was the price of each kind of ticket?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Advance=x

Same.day=y

x+y=35 so x=35-y

40x+30y=1250

40(35-y)+30y=1250

-10y=-150

y=15

x+15=35

x=20

Cost for Advance ticket: $20
Cost for Same-day ticket: $15



Answer 2
Answer: Let's set up variables and equations for things that we know from the question, with a standing for advance tickets, and s standing for same day tickets. 

40a + 30s = 1250 
a + s = 35

Let's solve it through substitution. Isolate either variable, a or s. I'll choose to isolate a. Subtract s from both sides.

a = -s + 35

Plug the new knowledge into the first equation, since we now know the value of a

40(-s +35) + 30s = 1250.

Distribute the 40 to the -s and 35

-40s + 1400 + 30s = 1250

Combine the negative and positive s

-10s + 1400 = 1250

Subtract 1400 from both sides.

-10s = -150

Divide both sides by -10

s = 15

The total price of an advanced ticket and same-day ticket is 35, and we know the value of a same-day ticket, so the price of an advance ticket must be 20. 

The final answers are:
advanced ticket = 20
same day ticket = 15

Answers

y=mx+b
m=slope

perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

the line we have is y=-4/7x+5
therefor
if the slope we are looking for is m
(-4/7)m=-1
times -7/4 both sides
m=7/4
we are looking for
y=7/4x+b

How many yards of a carpeting that is 26 inches wide will be needed to cover a floor that

12ft = 144in
13ft = 156in

144in 
× 156in= 22464in²
(12ft) 
× (13ft) = (156ft²)

22464in² ÷ 26in = 864in needed

Answer:

For me i think its 16.67 well im not fully sure

Step-by-step explanation:

SO we have to figure out what gives us 10 and that will be represented as "x"

(60)/(100)  × x = 10

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 60,

we have x = 10 × (100)/(60)  so, x = 16.67

(that's what i believe but i don't know)
