Answer:

237

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations.

The theater sold 364 adult and child tickets, so a + c = 364

They made a total of $1930. Each adult ticket was $6 & child tickets were $4. The second equation is 6a + 4c = 1930.

Let's line them up

a + c = 364

6a + 4c = 1930

Since we need to solve for the number of adult tickets, we want to get rid of the c variable. I'm going to multiply the entire first equation by -4 to do this. The second equation stays the same. Now, I have:

-4a - 4c = -1456

6a + 4c = 1930 Add them together

----------------------

2a = 474 Divide by 2 to solve for a

a = 237

There were 237 adult tickets sold

#2) The Ramy family went

suter [353]

If there were only sandwiches bought, there would be 15, if there were only salads bought there would be 20. There’s probably more than one possibility, but that’s the best I can do, considering how long it’s been since I’ve done this type of problem. I’m all the way to learning determinants, so I really have to think to remember these. Sorry in advance if this doesn’t help at all, I’m not the best at this, but I can still try.

3a+3b,for a=2 and b=4

il63 [147K]

3a + 3b, for a=2 and b=4 ... The first thing you'd do would be to plug the numbers in -

3 x 2 + 3 x 4

Then multiply them -

6 + 12

Then add -

18.

So your answer should be 18.

Use the distrubutive property to simply 2(-5-7j)

prisoha [69]

<u>Answer:</u>

2(-5 - 7j) = -10 - 14j

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Using the distributive property means that we have to multiply both -5 and -7j by 2:

2(-5 - 7j)

⇒ 2 × -5 + 2 × -7j

⇒ -10 - 14j
