Let the number of Matinee tickets be x 
Let the number of evening tickets be y
Number of sold tickets = 63, this means that: x+y = 63 ......> equation I
Price of matinee ticket = 10 and price of evening tickets = 14
Total money collected = 742, this means that 10x + 14y = 742 .....> equation II

From equation I: x = 63 - y .........> equation III

Substitute by equation III in equation II:
10(63-y) + 14y = 742
630 - 10y + 14y = 742
4y = 742 - 630 = 112
y = 112/4 = 28
Substitute by the value of y is equation III:
x = 63-28 = 35

Based on the above calculations:
number of matinee tickets = x = 35 tickets
number of evening tickets = y = 28 tickets

Four multiplied by the sum of 8 and a number is the same as 59 more than the number. find the number.
Daniel [21]
The sum of 8 and a number is 8 + x.  Now multiply that by 4 to get 4(8 + x).  The word "is the same as" means "equals" 59 more than the number, which means we add 59 to the unknown we have called x.  So our equation now looks something like this (exactly like this, actually): 4(8 + x) = x + 59.  Simplifying a bit gives us 32 + 4x = x + 59.  3x = 27 and x = 9.  The number is 9!

Can someone please help for 3/4
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

3. 2kg/m                                    4. 1.524 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

3.  20g/cm to kg/m.

(20g÷1000g)kg ÷ (1cm÷100cm)m

1/50kg ÷ 1/100m

1/50 x 100/1=2kg/m

4.  1nch=2.54cm.

1foot=12inches

5feet= 5x12

       =60inches

1inch=2.54cm

60nches=60×2.54

          =152.4cm

100cm=1m

152.4cm=152.4÷100

        =1.524m

thus 5 feet=1.524meers
