X= # adult tickets  y=# child tickets

4y=x
5.20y+8.50x=1332.80
Substitute
5.20y+8.50(4y)=1332.80
Solve for y
5.20y+34y=1332.80
39.2y=1332.8
y=34

Plug y into original equation
4(34)=x
136=x

34 children's tickets and 136 adult tickets were sold

vovikov84 [41]
You need to find opposite terms when using the elimination method to solve a system of equations so that way you can find out the y or the x after you have crossed out the fraternal twins. You have to get rid of either the y or x in order to work it out and find the y or x value.

REY [17]

Answer:

Answer is first line

Step-by-step explanation:

-7(x+9) >= 37+3x

Going to solve for x:

-7x - 63 >= 37 + 3x

-7x - 3x >= 37 + 63

-10x  >= 100

x <= 100/-10       (notice the change in equality because we divided by negative)

x <= -10

Find g(a-2)+3g(2a) if g(x)=x²-5x+8
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

13a² - 39a + 46

Step-by-step explanation:

To find g(a-2)+3g(2a), find each part using the function g(x)=x²-5x+8.

g(a-2) = (a-2)²-5(a-2)+8 = a² - 4a + 4-5a + 10+8 = a² - 9a + 22

3g(2a) = 3{(2a)²-5(2a)+8} = 3{ 4a² - 10a + 8} = 12a² - 30a + 24

Combine the values to find g(a-2)+3g(2a).

g(a-2)+3g(2a) = (a² - 9a + 22) + (12a² - 30a + 24) = 13a² - 39a + 46
