To find the answer, set up a system of equations.

Let x=adult tickets and y=senior citizen tickets.

x+y=556
22x+12y=8492

Change the first equation to make it easy to combine with the second equation.

y=556-x

Now substitute (556-x) for y in the second equation.

22x+12(556-x)=8492

Simplify and combine like terms.

22x+6672-12x=8492
10x=1820
x=182

182 adult tickets were sold, so to solve for the number of senior citizen tickets sold, subtract 182 from 556.

556-182=374

374 senior citizen tickets were sold.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

e) cos(90° - x)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two angles are complementary, the cofunction identities state that the sine of one equals the cosine of the other and vice versa

The complementary angle of angle x is equal to (90-x) degrees

therefore

sin(x^o)=cos(90-x)^o

Sonja [21]

Answer:

P = 1039.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The initial amount deposited, Po = 500

- The interest rate applied, I = 5% compounded annually

Find:-

- The amount on her bank statement after 15 years?

Solution:-

- We see that the principal amount increases every year and no transactions have been made in the course of 15 years.

The total amount left in her savings account would be given by the following formula:

                         P = Po * ( 1 + I/100 )^n

- Where, n = number of years passed since deposit. (15 years)

                        P = 500 * ( 1 + 5/100 )^15

                        P = 500 * (1.05)^15

                        P = 1039.5
