1. An adult tick for a hypnotist's show cost $15. A children's ticket for the hypnotist show cost $9. The amount of adult tickets sold is 5 times the number of children's tickets sold. A total of $1512 is taken in for ticket sales. 2. The difference between two whole numbers is 9. Twice the smaller number is 6 more than the larger number. What is the smaller number?

try this. the error is that sariah was combining a constant (4.5) with a variable with a coefficient, thus getting an inaccurate answer.

this is also assuming that you meant to put an equal sign before the 4.5 + x 35 x

to solve this problem, the strategy used is just to solve it yourself and find the correct answer by combining like terms.

hope this !

to find perimiter, add all the sides.

60 5/6 + 54 1/3 + 59 1/3 + 56 1/6.

goup like terms:

(60 5/6 + 56 1/6) + ( 54 1/3 + 59 1/3) = 117 + 113 2/3

56 + 60 =   116. 5/6 + 1/6 = 6/6 = 1/ 116 + 1 = 117

54 + 59 = 13. 1/3 + 1/3 =2/3. 13 + /3 = 113 2/3    

117 + 113 2/3 = 230 2/3

answer: 230 2/3
