Let: A = adult tickets; S = student tickets

a. 498 = 5A + 3S
    118 = A + S

b. S = 118 - A
    498 = 5A + 3(118 - A)
    498 = 5A + 354 - 3A
    498 - 354 = 2A
    144 = 2A
     A = 72
     
    118 = S + A
    118 = 72 + S
    118 - 72 = S
    S = 46

c. Therefore, there were 72 adult tickets and 46 student tickets sold.

Becky needs to make cookies for a school bake sale. The cookies need to be distributed evenly on 2 or more plates. If each plate
Lelu [443]

Answer:

We can take 2 plates , 3 plates or 6 plates.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dozen = 12 numbers

Total number of cookies = 42

Each plate has to get atleast 7 cookies ,all the plates should have the same number of cookies and also the number of plates must be greater than or equal to 2.

  • If we take 2 plates , there can be 21 cookies in each.
  • If we take 3 plates , there can be 14 cookies in each.
  • If we take 6 plates , there can be 7 cookies in each.

These are the 3 possible cases.

Since there cannot be broken pieces, no other combination is possible.

Help find the perimeter and area please
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

P= 20.2 and A= 15.675

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 base*height. Therefore, the equation for the area of the triangle is 1/2*5.7*5.5. 1/2*5.7=2.85. 2.85*5.5=15.675(area). To find perimeter you're simply adding the numbers. When you add up the numbers of the triangle, you get 20.2.
