100 tickets were sold.
The total amount of the tickets sold is = 5 * 100 = $500. 
First prize given = $100
Second prize worth = $20 * 5 = $100
Total worth of prize + $100 + $100 = $200.
Net amount of tickets sold = $500 - $200 = $300
Expected price of each ticket sold = $300/100 = 3.
Therefore, the real price of each ticket sold is $3.

One way to solve the system is to _____________ a variable.
Ivahew [28]

One way to solve the system is to <u>substitute</u> a variable.

<u>Explanation:</u>

One approach to solve an equation is by substitution of one variable. Right now, a condition for one factor, at that point substitute that arrangement in the other condition, and explain. All value(s) of the variable(s) that fulfills a condition, disparity, arrangement of conditions, or arrangement of imbalances.

The technique for tackling "by substitution" works by settling one of the conditions (you pick which one) for one of the factors (you pick which one), and afterward stopping this go into the other condition, "subbing" for the picked variable and fathoming for the other. At that point you back-explain for the principal variable.

Ethan Makes $6 per hour mowing lawns and $7.50 per hour bagging groceries. last week, he made a total of $129. the difference be
zlopas [31]
Let x be the number of hours of nagging groceries spent by Ethan. With this representation, the number of hours for moving lawns will be x + 10. The equation that would let us solve this item is,

                6x + 7.50(x + 10) = 129

The value of x from the equation is 4. Thus, the number of hours spent for moving lawns is 14 hours.

Write a real world problem that can be represented by the equation 3/4c=21
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: Real world problem is "A student have c toffee he distribute \frac{3}{4}th part of those toffees to his friends. He gave total 21 toffees to his friend".

Explanation:

Let a student have c number of toffees in his bag.

It is given that he distribute \frac{3}{4}th part of those toffees to his friends.

The \frac{3}{4}th part of c toffees is,

\frac{3c}{4}

The total number of distributed toffees is 21.

\frac{3c}{4}=21

It is the same as given equation.

If we change the equation in words it means the \frac{3}{4}th part of a number c is 21.
