Spartan Stadium at San Jose State University in California has a seating capacity of about 30,000. A newspaper article states that the Spartans get four times as many tickets as the visiting team. Suppose S represents the number of tickets for the Spartans and V represents the number of tickets for the visiting team’s fans.

Write and solve a system of equations to find how many tickets each team gets.

Number of tickets for the Spartans = 24000

Number of tickets for the visiting team’s fans = 6000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of tickets for the visiting team’s fans be x.

so,according to the question

no. of tickets for the Spartans = 4x

total seating capacity of Spartan Stadium = 30000

now, we see that,

4x+x = 30000

5x = 30000

x = 30000/5

x = 6000

Number of tickets for the visiting team’s fans = x = 600

Number of tickets for the Spartans = 4x = 4(6000) = 24000

$3720

step-by-step explanation:

taxable income = $31000

as per the 2018-2019 us tax bracket, the tax rate is 12% for an individual whose taxable income is between $9,526 to $38,700.

so, the tax to be paid by him = 12% of 31000

= 0.12 * 31000     [12% converted to decimal as 0.12]

= $3720
