You would need 3 pails of plaster, specifically about 2 pails and a fifth of another but you cant buy a fraction of a pail, so 3 pails are needed.

Find two positive numbers so that twice their sum equals their product and one number is 10 times the other number. Enter the sm
Softa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll call the 2 numbers x and y. Starting with the last part of that first sentence "one number is 10 times the other number" can be written, in algebraic form:

y = 10x

Now on to the first statement about the numbers: "twice their sum" is 2(x + y) and "equals their product" is = xy. Putting that all together:

2(x + y) = xy and we know that y = 10x so

2(x + 10x) = x(10x) and

2(11x)=10x^2 and

10x^2-22x=0 and

x(10x - 22) = 0 so

x = 0 or 10x - 22 = 0 which makes

x equal to \frac{22}{10}=2.2

So x = 2.2 and y = 22.

Se vendieron un total de 430 boletos para la obra de teatro escolar. Los boletos eran o de adulto o de estudiante. Se vendieron
BartSMP [9]

Resolviendo un sistema de ecuaciones, veremos que se vendieron 250 boletos de adulto.

<h3>¿Cuántos boletos de adulto fueron vendidos?</h3>

Definamos las variables:

  • x = boletos de adulto vendidos.
  • y = boletos de estudiantes vendidos.

Se vendieron un total de 430 boletos, entonces:

x + y = 430

Y se vendieron 70 boletos de estudiante menos que boletos de adulto:

y = x - 70

Tenemos el sistema de ecuaciones:

x + y = 430

y = x - 70

Para resolverlo, podemos reemplazar la segunda ecuación en la primera:

x + y = 430

x + (x - 70) = 430

2x = 430 + 70 = 500

x = 500/2 = 250

Se vendieron 250 boletos de adulto.
