Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.

Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.

Using the substitution method:

x + y = 300   ⇒   y = 300 - x   ⇒   Equation (3)

12x + 8y = 3280   ⇒   12x + 8(300-x) = 3280   ⇒   x = 220

y = 300 - x   ⇒   y = 300-220 ⇒ 80

Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.

If C(5,-5) and D(7,3), then what is the length of CD?​
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

≈ 6.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance (d) using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = C(5, - 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D(7, 3)

d = √ (7 - 5)² + (3 + 5)²

  = √ 2² + 8² = √ 4 + 64 = √68 ≈ 6.16 ( to 2 dec. places )
