4x - 2y = 22
Start by adding 2y to both sides to cancel out the -2y
4x = 22 + 2y
Now you can divide by 4
x = 22/4 + 2y/4
Reduce all the fractions to get your answer, which is
let us repersent the number of student tickets, then 's + 20' is repersenting the number of adult tickets.
The equation for the total tickets can be experssed as the following:
4.00 * s + 8.00 * ( s + 20 ) = 880.00
solving for 's=60', there were 60 student tickets.
60 + 20 = 80
there were 80 adult tickets.

Answer:
Therefore the Expression will be.
...As minus - minus sign becomes plus.
Step-by-step explanation:
What is six minus negative two x?
Solution:
It is the Algebraic Expression in Statement form.
Algebraic Expression is given in the form numbers and variables with the operands such as
- ' + ' Plus Sign
- ' - ' Minus Sign
- ' × ' Multiplication Sign
- ' ÷ ' Division Sign, etc.
Hence Our Statement is " six minus negative two x "
i.e. Number 6 minus sign then again a minus sign of 2x.
Therefore the Expression will be.
Also equals
...As minus - minus sign becomes plus.
Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
Marked down 15% means the new price would be 85% of the original price ( 100%-15% - 85%)
Multiply the original price by 85%:
5250 x 0.85 = 4462.50
The new price is $4,462.50
