Algebra.Com's Answer #844791 by Theo(13342) You can put this solution on YOUR website! i think a row of 5 squares would be sufficient. \n" ); document.write( "this includes a header column and a header row. \n" ); document.write( "it would look like this: \n" ); document.write( " \r\n" ); document.write( "tickets sold A C S T\r\n" ); document.write( " 99 66 22 187\r\n" ); document.write( "\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you don't include the headers, then a row of 4 squares would be sufficient.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the calculations would be as follows:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you are given that: \n" ); document.write( "A/C = 3/2 \n" ); document.write( "A/S = 9/2\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "from this you can derive the following: \n" ); document.write( "C/A = 2/3 \n" ); document.write( "S/A = 2/9\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you solve for C, you get C = 2A/3 \n" ); document.write( "if you solve for S, you get S = 2A/9 \n" ); document.write( "by default, A = A/1.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you are given that A + C + S = 187 \n" ); document.write( "by substitution, this becomes A + 2A/3 + 2A/9 = 187 \n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides of this equation by 9 to get 9A + 6A + 2A = 1683 \n" ); document.write( "combine like terms to get 17A = 1683. \n" ); document.write( "solve for A to get A = 99.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "you get: \n" ); document.write( "A = 99 \n" ); document.write( "C = 2A/3 = 66 \n" ); document.write( "S = 2A/9 = 22\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "that's your solution.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "from your selections, your solution will be:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The number of adults tickets sold was 99. \n" ); document.write( "The number of senior tickets sold was 22. \n" ); document.write( "The number of child tickets sold was 66.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
