Algebra.Com's Answer #478226 by josgarithmetic(39626) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! x, y, z, count of child tickets, adult tickets, senior tickets.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=3+y, and y-1=z. \n" ); document.write( "Accounting for cost, 10x+15y+13z=131.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You could solve the two first equations for y, and equate those expressions, and use one of them to substitute for y in the cost equation. You then have any two equations in x and z. \r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Tell if you need further help than this. \n" ); document.write( " |
