Alright this is gonna be a long one

Lets called child tickets x and adult tickets y 

so x + y should be equal to 159 since they said that the total sum of the tickets is 159 
so thats your first equation : x + y = 159

next form an equation using the prices, 
5.40x + 8.70y = 1079.70

now that you have your two equations, just substitute the first into the second (you could either substitute for x or y by saying x = 159-y or that y=159-x)

Hope this helps.

What conclusions can you draw about the roots of the equation x^3+x^2-2x+12=0​
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

If x=-3, then

x³+x²-2x+12=-27+9+6+12=-27+27=0

If this is true, then x+3 is a factor. So:

x³+x²-2x+12/x+3=x²-2x+4

So the factors of x³+x²-2x+12 are:

(x+3)(x²-2x+4)

((x²-2x+4) has no real roots)........

An angle measure 20 more than the measure of its supplementary angle.What is the measure of each angle?
SOVA2 [1]

Based on the definition of supplementary angles, the measure of both angles are: 80° and 100°.

<h3>What are Supplementary Angles?</h3>

The sum of angles that are supplementary to each other equals 180 degrees.

Let the measure of the supplementary angle be x.

The other angle will be: x + 20.

(x + 20) + x = 180

x + 20 + x = 180

2x + 20 = 180

2x = 180 - 20

2x = 160

x = 160/2

x = 80°

The other angle will be x + 20 = 80 + 20 = 100°.

The measure of the angles are: 80° and 100°.
