Which equation represents this problem?
the time it takes tomás to bike to the community center is 2 minutes less than half the time it takes him to bike to the city park. it takes tomás 18 minutes to bike to the community center.
let p = the time it takes tomás to bike to the park.

a.
2p+1/2=18

b.
1/2p+2=18

c.
2p–1/2=18

d.1/2p–2=18

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130
