The number of student tickets sold is half the total plus half the difference:
  student tickets = (603 +53)/2 = 656/2 = 328

The number of adult tickets is 53 fewer, 275.

Answer: 275 tickets

Explanation: 
Let S = the number of student tickets and A = the number of adult tickets.
Since only adult and student tickets exist, then you know that all of the 603 tickets have to be those. This means that A + S = 603.
Since you know that 53 more of S was sold than A, A + 53 = S.
You substitute (A + 53) for S in the equation A + S = 603 and get the equation A + A + 53 = 603.
This means 2A = 550.
A = 275.
Plus A back into the equation where A + 53 = S to find that S = 328.

Find the area of the triangle given below.
Nimfa-mama [501]

<u>Given:</u>

A triangle with a base length of 22 ft and a height of 20 ft.

<u>To find:</u>

The area of the given triangle.

<u>Solution:</u>

The area of a triangle is obtained by multiplying \frac{1}{2} with its base length and its height.

The area of a triangle = \frac{1}{2} (b)(h).

The height is the distance from the base to the highest point on the triangle and the length of the base is the base length.

The given triangle has a base length of 22 ft and a height of 20 ft.

The area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2} (b)(h) = \frac{1}{2} (22)(20).

\frac{1}{2} (22)(20) = \frac{1}{2} (440) = 220 ft².

The given triangle has an area of 220 ft².

hal says that the greatest product of a 3-digit number and a 1-digit number is 8,891. Is he correct? Expland
spin [16.1K]
No it would be 8991 because the highest 3 digit number (999) multiplied by the greatest 1 digit number (9) would be 8991 so Hal is wrong.
