The number of presale tickets sold is 271
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "p" be the number of presale tickets sold
Let "g" be the number of tickets sold at gate
<em><u>Given that, total of 800 Pre-sale tickets and tickets at the gate were sold</u></em>
Therefore,
Presale tickets + tickets sold at gate = 800
p + g = 800 ------ eqn 1
<em><u>Given that, number of tickets sold at the gate was thirteen less than twice the number of pre-sale tickets</u></em>
Therefore,
Number of tickets sold at gate = twice the number of pre-sale tickets - 13
g = 2p - 13 ------- eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>
Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1
p + 2p - 13 = 800
3p -13 = 800
3p = 800 + 13
3p = 813
p = 271
Thus 271 presale tickets were sold
We have a triangle whose perimeter is 32 feet. Some information regarding the sides of the triangle is given:
GiveN:
- One side is 3 times the second side.
- Third side is 12 feet longer than the second side.
As we can see that, two sides of the triangle are defined the second sides. It means First and third side can be expressed in the form of second side.
- So let the second side be x
Then,
- First side = 3x
- And, third side = x + 12
We know that, perimeters is the sum of the lengths of all sides of the triangle, So it can be written as:

Solving it further,

Subtracting 12 from both sides,


Dividing 5 from both sides,


Then,
- First side = 3x = 12 feet
- Second side = 4 feet
- Third side = x + 12 = 16 feet
And we are done with the answer !!

The population of Virginia is 7,980,000 people.
- Let the population of Virginia be V.
- Let the population of Georgia be G.
<u>Given the following data:</u>
- Population of Georgia = 10.5 million
To find the population of Virginia:
Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;
24% percent less:
× 
× 
24% of G = 2,520,000
Now, we can find the population of Virginia:


<em>V = 7,980,000 people.</em>
Therefore, the population of Virginia is 7,980,000 people.
