For this case we have the following system of equations:
We solve by the substitution method:
We substitute the first equation in the second equation:
We apply distributive property considering that
We subtract 69 from both sides of the equation:
We divide by 8 on both sides of the equation:
We look for the value of the variable y:
Thus, the solution of the system is
Answer:
Answer:
all work is shown and pictured
Your answer is- (x being tickets sold and y being the amount of money) y=55x.
This means that for every ticket bought, it costs 55 dollars.
First you need to multiply 36 *$30.22=$1087.92
This gives you the total amount paid
Then subtract 1087.92-900=187.92
This gives you the amount of money you paid in finance charges.
Any improper fraction would work for this case since they are all greater than 1. For instance 3/2 * 2 would be equal to 3 which is greater than 2.
