Answer:

There were 7 adults and 28 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adults who saw a movie that day be 'a'

Let the number of children who saw a movie that day be 'c'

A matinee ticket costs $6 per adult and $1 per child. On a certain day total money collected was $70. We can represent this as :

6a+1c=70    ...... (1)

On a certain day, the total number of adults and children who saw a movie was 35. This can be represented as :

a+c=35   .......(2)

These two equations can be used to solve this question.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you want to solve this, we can substitute c=35-a in (1)

6a+1(35-a)=70

=> 6a-a=70-35

=> 5a=35

a = 7

And c = 35-7=28

So, there were 7 adults and 28 children.

The table shows the number of minutes Garrett practiced his trombone each week in one month. Week Number of Minutes Practiced 1
vredina [299]

Answer:

\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

The reason is because we assume that each week have the same weight and replacing we got:

\bar X= \frac{190+163+327+205}{4}= 221.25

And the best option would be:

D. 221.25

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data given

Week       1       2         3       4

Minutes  190   163   327   205

For this case we can find the mean with the following formula:

\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

The reason is because we assume that each week have the same weight and replacing we got:

\bar X= \frac{190+163+327+205}{4}= 221.25

And the best option would be:

D. 221.25

In each of the following equations, what is
timama [110]

The graph will cross at the coordinates (-2, 9)

<h3>How to solve equations?</h3>

y = 3x + 15

y = 3 - 3x

y = 3x + 15

Hence,

when x = 2

y = 3(2) + 15 = 21

when x = 0

y = 3(0) + 15 = 15

y = 3 - 3x

when x = 2

y = 3 - 3(2)

y = 3 - 6

y = -3

when x = 0

y = 3 - 3(0)

y = 3

Therefore, let's check if the equation will cross.

y = 3x + 15

y = 3 - 3x

using substitution,

3 - 3x = 3x + 15

3  - 15 = 3x + 3x

- 12 = 6x

x = -12 / 6

x = -2

y = 3 - 3(-2)

y = 3 + 6

y = 9

Therefore, the graph will cross at the coordinates (-2, 9)

Manny used 8 tenth-size parts to model 8/10. Ana used fewer parts to model an equivalent fraction. How does the size of a part i
viktelen [127]
Alrighty, let's think of it like this: You are trying to fill a box with a bunch of sports balls. You have tiny little golf balls, and you have giant bowling balls. You need to fill this same box all the way up.

If you fill it with the tiny golf balls, you are going to need a <em>whole lot of them!</em>

If you are putting in bowling balls, only a few of them will fit, because they are so much bigger.

When it comes to your fraction, the box is the the number 8/10. That number will not change because we are not changing the size of the box.

We are just changing what we are filling it with. Manny, can fit 8 parts, or in this case balls, into the box.

It says Ana uses fewer parts, so she cannot fit as many in as Manny.

This means that Manny would have the golf balls, since he can fit more in than Ana, who must have the bowling balls.

So which is bigger? A bowling ball or a golf ball?

A bowling ball, which is what Ana has. So <u><em>Ana's part will be bigger</em></u> in size.

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: 14 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cat's age when it died = x.

Therefore, the child's age is 2 + x because he/she got the cat when he/she was 2 years old.

We can set up an equation.

x + (2+x) = 30

2x + 2 = 30

2x = 28

Therefore, x = 14

  • [Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

We are given a right triangle. We can use PT to solve for the missing length.

<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>

Leg <em>a</em> = 6

Leg <em>b</em> = <em>x</em>

Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = √89

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Set up equation:                    6² + x² = (√89)²
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                        x² = (√89)² - 6²
  3. Exponents:                             x² = 89 - 36
  4. Subtract:                                 x² = 53
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                                 x = √53
