Write an equation to determine how much Elise will pay for a student ticket. A)two thirdsx + 21 = 10 B)two thirdsx − 21 = 10 C)two thirdsx + 10 = 21 D)two thirdsx − 10 = 21

Answer :

absor201

Answer:

C. two thirds x + 10 = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of adult ticket = $21.00

Let x be the price of student ticket

Then

two third of the student ticket will be:

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x[/tex]

The statement $10.00 more than two third of student ticket:

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x+10[/tex]

As we are given in the question that the adult ticket price is $21.00 and the second explanation is th equation formed by the given statement

So, both will be equivalent

[tex]\frac{2}{3} x+10 = 21[/tex]

Solving this equation for x will give us the price for the student ticket.

Hence,

C. two thirdsx + 10 = 21 is the correct answer ..
