Answer:

461 adults and 864 students

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set-up a system of equations to find the number of adults. We know students and adults attended. We will let s be the number of students and a be the number of adults. Since 1,325 tickets were purchased, then s+a=1325.

We also know that a total of $3,169 was collected and adult tickets cost $5 each and students cost $1 each. We can write 1s+5a=3169.

We will solve by substituting one equation into the other. We first solve the first equation for s which is s=1325-a. Substitute s=1325-a into 1s+5a=3169. Simplify and isolate the variable a.

1(1325-a)+5a=3169

1325-a+5a=3169

1325+4a=3169

1325-1325+4a=3169-1325

4a=1844

a=461

This means that 461 adults attended and 864 students attended since 864+461=1325.

If p = -2 and q = 5, is the value of p/q equivalent to 2/5?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subsutute p/q with the numbers given, p = -2 and q = 5.

-2 / 5.

2. Divide 2/5 and -2/5 and compare.

2 / 5 = 0.40

-2 / 5 = -0.40

-0.40 < 0.40

If they are not =, then they are <u>NOT</u> equivalent.

Which means, they are Not equivalent.

Find the exact value of T Image below
Elanso [62]

Answer:

a) 1/800 or 0.00125

b) i) 0.0013

ii) 0.001

c) 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

T = [tan(2×30)+1][2cos(30)-1] ÷ (y²-x²)

T = (tan60 + 1)(2cos30 - 1) ÷ (41² - 9²)

T = (sqrt(3) + 1)(sqrt(3) - 1) ÷ 1600

T = (3-1)/1600

T = 2/1600

T = 1/800

T = 0.00125

Error: 0.002 - 0.00125

0.00075

%error

0.00075/0.00125 × 100

60%
