To find the answer,we can solve this by settin up an equation.

Let x be the number of adult tickets sold.

The number of students ticket sold would be:
x-74

We can then sum them up to set an equation:

x+x-74 = 676
2x = 676 + 74
x = 375

Therefore the adult tickets sold were 375.

Hope it helps!

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The a paper will be
eimsori [14]

Given :

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business.

The paper will be shipped in small boxes and large boxes.

Each small box of paper weighs 50 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. A total of 19 boxes of paper were shipped weighing 1280 pounds altogether.

Find :

Determine the number of small boxes shipped and the number of large boxes shipped.

Calculations :

Let "S" be small boxes and "L" be large boxes.

Small box + Large box = 19

50S + 80L = 1280

→ 5S + 8L = 128

→ 5 (19 - L) + 8L = 128

→ 3L = 128 - 95

→ L = 33/3

→ L = 11ㅤㅤ

Finding the small box:

→ S = 19 - L

→ S = 19 - 11

→ S = 8

Therefore ,

Large boxes = 11.

Small boxes = 8.

orrrrrr

The number of small boxes is 8 and that of the large boxes is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each small box of paper weighs 50 pounds and each large box of paper

weighs 80 pounds. A total of 19 boxes of paper were shipped weighing 1280 pounds altogether.

Let there are x small boxes and y large boxes.

Then,

x + y = 19 ............ (1) and

50x + 80y = 1280

⇒ 5x + 8y = 128 ............... (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,

5( 19 - y) + 8y = 128

⇒ 3y = 128 - 95 = 33

⇒ y = 11

Now, from equation (1) we get, x = 19 - y = 19 - 11 = 8

Therefore, the number of small boxes is 8 and that of the large boxes is 11. (Answer)

Marcos purchased a sail boat for $56,900. He anticipates each year the boat will decrease in value by 8.1% from the previous yea
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: 56,900\left( 0.919\right)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Marcos purchased a sailboat for \$56,900

Each year the boat will decrease in value by 8.1\%

After 1 year it is

\Rightarrow 56,900-56,900\times 0.081\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\\

after another year it becomes

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)-56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\times 0.081\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)\cdot \left( 1-0.081\right)\\\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)^2

After x years it is

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 1-0.081\right)^x

\Rightarrow 56,900\left( 0.919\right)^x
