Find the number of adult tickets and children tickets she sold Solve the problem by composing a system of linear equations.) 4. At her Hair Salon, i takes Jessica 20 minutes to wash and blow hair and 80 minutes to color hair. On Saturday, she made a total of 9 hair jobs in 6 hours. Find the nurnber of wash and blow hair and number of of hair colors she did. Solve the problem by composing a system of linear equations.)

Explanation / Answer

Let the number of children tickets sold be x

Adult tickets sold = 60+x

hence

10*(60+x)+6(x) = 1000

x= 25

Number of children tickets sold = 25

Number of adult tickets sold = 25+60=85

4.

let the number of wash and blow jobs be x

therefore, number of color hair jobs is 9-x

20x+80*(9-x) = 360(6 hours in mins)

x= 6

number of wash and blow jobs is 6

therefore, number of color hair jobs is 9-6=3
