Answer: 76 child tickets were sold that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to set up a system of equations.

Let be "c" the number of child tickets sold that Wednesday and "a" the number of adult tickets sold that Wednesday.

Then:

\left \{ {{a+c=173} \atop {9.40a+5.70c=1345.0}} \right.

Using the Method of Elimination, you can multiply the first equation by -9.40, then add both equations and finally solve for "c":

\left \{ {{-9.40a-9.40c=-1626.2} \atop {9.40a+5.70=1345.0}} \right.\\..................................\\-3.7c=-281.2\\\\c=\frac{-281.2}{-3.7}\\\\c=76

Equation M: y = x + 4
sladkih [1.3K]
Solve the system

<span>y = x + 4
y = 3x + 6

Note that both equations have been solved for y.  Thus, you can set y = y, or

x+4=3x+6.  Simplifying, -2 = 2x, or x = -1.

Another way to look at this would be    x + 4 = 3x + 6.</span>

For what value of k are the lines 2x + 3y = 4k and x - 2ky = 7 parallel?
natulia [17]

Answer:

k = -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines will be parallel if their slopes are equal.  To find the slope of each line, write its equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).  In other words, solve each equation for y and look at the coefficient of x.

2x + 3y = 4k

3y = -2x + 4k

y = (-2/3)x + 4k/3

The slope of the first line is -2/3.

x - 2ky = 7

-2ky = -x + 7

y = [1/(2k)]x - 7/(2k)

The slope of the second line is 1/(2k).

If the slopes are equal, then

1/(2k) = -2/3

Multiply by 2k.

1 = (-2/3)(2k) = (-4/3)k

1 = (-4/3)k

k = -3/4

A wheel with radius 1 foot makes 1 revolution in 4 seconds. What is the linear velocity, in feet per second, of a point on the e
Alona [7]

In one revolution of the wheel, a point on the edge travels a distance equal to the circumference of the wheel.

The wheel has radius 1 ft, so its circumference is 2π (1 ft) = 2π ft.

Then the point has a linear speed of

(1/4 rev/s) * (2π ft/rev) = 2π/4 ft/s = π/2 ft/s
