Answer:

Adult tickets =125

Child tickets = 128

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult and children tickets sold be x and y respectively

So that

x+y= 253--------1

Since total sales/receipt is $2,771

And given that tickets for a dance recital cost $15 for adults and $7 for children hence

15x+7y= 2771-------2

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously we have

x+y= 253---------------1

15x+7y= 2771----------2

Let us multiply equation 1 by 15 to get equation 3 to eliminate x and subtract equation 2 from 3

15x+15y=3795---------3

-{15x+7y= 2771----------2

0+8y=1024

8y= 1024

y= 1024/8

y= 128 tickets

So solve for x let us put y= 128 in equation 1

x+ 128=253

x=253-128

x= 125 tickets

Please help! Greatly appreciated sorry for really bad quality
Degger [83]
The first answer.

Point P is at (50,-40) the distance from Q to P is 80 units which you can find by subtracting the x of Q (-30) from the x of P (50).
50-(-30)=80
It then tells you point R is vertically above point Q so you know your x value for R will be the same as Q.
Add your distance from Q to P of 80 units to the y value of Q because you are traveling up.
-40+80=40
R will have a point of (-30,40) and a distance of 80 units

When juggling a ball travels in a complete circle every 10 seconds how many circle does it make in a minute.Please Help and expl
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

It make 6 circles in a minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

a ball travels in a complete circle every 10 seconds

i.e

one complete circle = time taken 10 seconds.

Two complete circle = time taken 20 seconds.

Three complete circle = time taken 30 seconds.

Four complete circle = time taken 40 seconds.

Five complete circle = time taken 50 seconds.

Six complete circle = time taken 60 seconds.

60 seconds =  one minute.

∴ Six complete circle  in one minute.

What is the median of this set of data: 593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375
Anna [14]
C. 427

The median is the middle number of all the data

Since there is an even number of data points the median is in between the middle two data points (434 and 420)

To find this: 434-420=14
14/2=7
434-7=427
420+7=427
