Let a = Adult tickets, s = Student tickets; we are going to set up a system of equations. 

8a + 4s = 880
a - s = 20

We are going to multiply the second equation by so that we can cancel out one of the variables and solve for the other. This gives you:

8a + 4s = 880
4a - 4s = 20

Notice the s-variables will cancel:

12a = 900
a = 75

Now we plug in the amount of adult tickets to solve for the student ones.

75 - s = 20
- s = - 55

Divide both sides by - 1
s = 55.

There were 55 student tickets sold and 75 adult tickets.

If the measure of xyz is 73 what is the measure of xy <br> a.146<br> b.73<br> c.36.5<br> d.107
icang [17]
146. They are asking for the angle XY, the blue line.

For instance, imagine it is 90 deg, instead of 73, it would cut the circle in two, and XY would be 180 deg. Imagine it would be 45 degrees, it would leave a quadrant, and that's 90 deg.

So the angle * 2 (they are different angles)

I think 'TheBestBrain' thought they were asking for the supplementary angle, but I think it is the arc length angle (blue line)

The classes at the middle school want to raise money.
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

This is a multiple step question. Before you can answer it you must find what it is asking, which is the highest rate for making money, or the greatest rate of change. To compare the rate of change between each grade, you must first have them in common units, which can be done by finding how much money was made by each grade in one hour. To find this, divide the number of dollars made by the number of hours it was made in to get how much was made in one hour. Doing this shows that the sixth grade made 34 dollars an hour (170 divided by 5), seventh made 28 dollars an hour (112/4), and the eighth grade made 32 dollars an hour (192/6). Then compare the numbers to see that the greatest amount earned in one hour was 34 dollars, by the sixth grade, which then becomes your answer: The sixth grade had the highest rate for raising money.
