Sydney is going to a carnival that has games and rides. Each game costs $1.25 and each ride costs $2.25. Sydney spent $24.25 altogether at the carnival and the number of rides she went on is 3 more than the number of games she played. Determine the number of games Sydney played and the number of rides Sydney went on. Sydney played___games and went onrides rides.

number of games played is 5

number of rides road 8

Step-by-step explanation:

8 x 2.25=18

5 x 1.25=6..25

18 + 6.25=24.25

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
