Answer: Cost of tickets for adults = $22

Cost of tickets for children = $15

Total number of tickets sold = 732

Total receipts = $12,912

Let x be number of adult ticket's sold and y be the number of child ticket's sold.

Therefore, we have:

x+y=732       --------------- equation 1

x=732-y

Also, we have:

22 x+15y=12,912

Now, let's substitute the value of x:

22 (732-y)+15y=12912

16104-22y+15y=12912

16104-7y=12912

7y=16104-12912

7y=3192

y=\frac{3192}{7} =456

Now, let's substitute the value of y=456 in equation 1, we have:

x+456=732

x=732-456

x=276

Therefore, the number of child ticket's sold is 456 and number of adult ticket's sold is 276

<h3>Answer:  176.6</h3>

Work Shown:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*\cos(B)\\\\b^2 = 150^2 + 30^2 - 2*150*30*\cos(150)\\\\b^2 \approx 31194.22863406\\\\b \approx \sqrt{31194.22863406}\\\\b \approx 176.618879608211\\\\b \approx 176.6\\\\

Help finding the x &amp; y intercept
nasty-shy [4]
The x-intercept will be the value of x when y=0.  The solutions to (x+1)(x+2)=0 are -1 and -2 since we can substitute them in to have one of the values in parentheses equal to zero, so our x-intercepts are (-1, 0) and (-2, 0).  The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0, or (0+1)(0+2)=2.  Therefore, the y-intercept is (0, 2).

In certain county, the number of charter schools is 4 less than twice the numbervof alternative schools. We know that there are
Vitek1552 [10]
1. Let's call the number of carter school: "x" and "y" the number of alternative school.  Then, you have that:

 - T<span>he number of charter schools is 4 less than twice the number of alternative schools.
</span> - T<span>here are 48 charter schools in the country.

 2. So, you have:

 x=2y-4  (i)

 x=48  (ii)

 3. Then, when you substitute x=48 into the equation (i), you obtain:
</span>
 x=2y-4
<span> 48=2y-4

 4. Now, you must clear "y, as below:

 48+4=2y
 2y=52
 y=52/2
 y=26
 </span><span>
 How many alternative schools are in the county?
</span><span>
 The answer is: There are 26 alternative schools.</span>
