A flock of pigeons flew to a tall tree. Some of them perched on the branches, others landed under the tree. The pigeons sitting on the branches called to those under the tree, “if one of you joins us, there will be twice as many of us than you.” Then, those under the tree answered, “It’s true, but if one of you joins us, there will be as many of us as of you. Please help.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 7 on the tree, and 5 below

Step-by-step explanation:

If one left the bottom, there would be 8 on top and 4 below. Therefore, twice as many. If one left the top it would be both 6 and 6.

Answer 2

Answer:

7 pigeons sitting on the branches,  5 pigeons under the tree

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pigeons on the branches = bNumber of pigeons under the tree = t

We got equations below:

b + 1 = 2(t - 1) ⇒ b = 2t - 3b - 1 = t + 1 ⇒ b = t + 2

Eliminate b and solve for t:

2t - 3 = t + 22t - t = 2 + 3t = 5

Then find b:

b = t + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7

Subtract 3 to bath sides: 2x=5-3 —> 2x=2
Then divide both sides by 2 to isolate the x: x=1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3 = 5

Subtract 3 on both sides to get the different values (variables, and numbers without variables) seperated.

2x + 3 - 3 = 5 - 3

2x = 2

Divide by 2 on both sides to isolate the variable

2x/2 = 2/2

x = 1

Check

Now that you have what "x" is (1) you can substitute that into the equation

2x + 3 = 5

2(1) + 3 = 5

2 + 3 = 5

5 = 5 CORRECT

Elena and Tomas rented a room in a restaurant for their wedding reception. They had to pay a rental rate of $160 plus $15 for the dinner of each guest who attended. They could not afford to pay more than $520 for the reception. Which inequality can be used to find how many guests (

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of guests be represented by x.

The information given can then be used to generate an inequality that goes thus:

160 + 15x ≤ 520

15x ≤ 520 - 160

15x ≤ 360

x ≤ 360/15

x ≤ 24

The number of guests should be at most 24

The Celluloid Cinema sold 290 tickets to a movie. Some of these are child tickets and the rest were adult tickets. A child ticket cost $8 and an adult ticket costs $8.5. If the cinema sold 2407.5 worth of tickets, determine how many child tickets and how many adult tickets were sold?

will give brainliest !

Answers

Answer:

child tickets: 115

adult tickets: 175

Step-by-step explanation:

number of child tickets = x

number of adult tickets = y

(value of child ticket [8] * number of child tickets [x]) + (value of adult ticket [8.5] * number of adult ticket [y]) = total value (2407.50)

8x + 8.5y= 2407.50

290 (total number of tickets) = x (number of child tickets) + y (number of adult tickets)

290 = x+y

system of equations: 8x + 8.5y= 2407.50

290 = x + y

solve equation:

x = 115

y = 175
