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.

Find the surface area of a rectangular prism that has the following dimensions.length: 2 ft width: 14 in. height: 11 in.
Komok [63]
To find the surface area of the rectangular prism the area of all the sides must be found and added together.

The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism can be expressed as: 2lw + 2lh + 2hw where 
l = length
h = height
w = width

Before plugging in the values in the equation the length of the prism must be converted to inches 
1 ft. = 12 in.
Therefore 2 ft. = 24 in.

By plugging in the values of length, width, and height into the equation 
2(24)(14) + 2(24)(11) + 2(14)(11) = 1508 in.²
