To figure this out, we need to use fractional proportions.
Currently, we have $120, the amount earned, and 2 days, the current rate.
Our fraction for this is: 120 / 2 = x / 6, x being the amount earned in 6 days.
Let's use a little technique to help us answer faster.
With our current money earned, 120, and our current days, 2, we can divide 120 by 2 to find out how many we earned in 1 day.
120 / 2 = 60.
We earned $60 per day.
With this formula, 60d, d being the amount of days, we can solve quicker.
We are solving for 6 days, so multiply $60 by 6 days.
60 x 6 = 360
Your proportion is :
120/2 : 360/6

(40-10)/7
The maximum amount of money she wants to spend is $40
Her adult ticket costs $10
She will pay for the children’s tickets with the remaining money
Each child’s ticket costs $7
To find the number of children she can take we need to use this expression (40-10)/7
Mrs Herñàndez can take 4 children
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = change of x over change of y
6 over 2
3
line goes down so slope is negative
-3
