A carnival game charges different prices for adults and children to play. Kids tickets are two dollars and adult tickets are five dollars. The carnival sold 36 tickets to this game and collected $135. Set up a system of equations that can be used to solve for the number of adult and children tickets sold for this game

kids= 15

adults= 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

let the number of kids be x

and  adults be y

Kids tickets are two dollars and adult tickets are five dollars

The carnival sold 36 tickets to this game and collected $135

so the system of the equation is

2x+5y=1351

x+y=362

from 2 x= 36-y

put x= 36-y in 1

2( 36-y)+5y=135

72-2y+5y=135

collect like terms

3y=135-72

3y=63

divide both sides by 3

y= 63/3

y=21

put y= 21 in 2

x+21= 36

x=36-21

x=15

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

step-by-step explanation:

given a united states citizen returning to the states declares the following items at the customs office: 3 shirts at $8.50 each 2 dresses at $27.50 each 1 pair of gold cuff links at $17.50 per pair. we have to find how much he pay

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is  

cost of 1 pair of gold cuff at $17.50

so, total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is   $25.5+$55+$17.50=$98
