Answer:

350 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up some values:

x = adult tickets

x + 50 = student tickets, since there were 50 more student tickets than adult tickets.

Now, let's set up our equation. If these two values add up to 750 tickets, then we can conclude the following:

(x) + (x + 50) = 750

2x + 50 = 750

2x = 700

x = 350 adult tickets. This means there were 400 student tickets sold.

Very easy:

Common denominator:
-5/10w - 3/5 = 2/10w

- 3/5 = 7/10w

-30 = 35w

-30/35 = w

-6/7 = w


That's how you do it mate ;)

M,H, and G have written more than a combined total of 22 articles. H has written 1/4 as many as M. G has written 3/2 as M. Write
Natalka [10]

Missing part of the question:

Write an inequality to determine the number of articles, M could have written for the school newspaper.

Answer:

The inequality: 11M > 88

The solution: M > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

From the question, we have the following parameters:

M + H + G > 22

H = \frac{1}{4}M

G = \frac{3}{2}M

Required

Determine the inequality to solve for M

Substitute the values for H and G in the inequality:

M + H + G > 22

M + \frac{1}{4}M + \frac{3}{2}M > 22

Multiply through by 4

4(M + \frac{1}{4}M + \frac{3}{2}M) > 22*4

4M + M + 6M > 88

11M > 88

Divide both sides by 11

M > 8

Write the equation for the area (A) in terms of length (l) of a playground if the width (w) is one half as long as the length (l
Dvinal [7]
Let, the length = l
Width = l/2

Area = l * w = l * l/2 = l²/2

So, Your Final Answer would be  A = l²/2

Hope this helps!

the scale on a map is stated as 1 : 250000 2 villages are 9 m apart on the map how far from each other are the two villages in k
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

2,250,000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question our scale is given as:

1 m : 250000km

We are trying to find the distance between two villages which is 9m apart in kilometers

Hence

1 m : 250000km

= 1 m = 250000km

9m = x km

Cross Multiply

x km = 9 × 250,000km

x km = 2,250,000 km
