Answer: There were 40 adult tickets and 28 children's tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets sold.

Let y represent the number of children's tickets sold.

An event sold $608 worth of tickets adult tickets cost $11 while children's tickets cost $6. It means that

11x + 6y = 608 - - - - - - 1

If 68 tickets were sold, it means that

x + y = 68

Substituting x = 68 - y into equation 1, it becomes

11(68 - y) + 6y = 608

748 - 11y + 6y = 608

- 11y + 6y = 608 - 748

- 5y = 140

y = 140/5 = 28

x = 68 - y = 68 - 28

x = 40

Dan invests £1200 into his bank account. He receives 5% per year compound interest. How much will dan have after5 years?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Dan will have $1,531.53 after 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, you can use the following formula to calculate the future value:

F= P(1 + r)^t

F= Future value

P= Present value= 1200

r= rate of interest= 5%

t= time= 5

F=1200(1+0.05)^5

A=1200(1.05)^5

A=1531.53

According to this, the answer is that Dan will have $1,531.53 after 5 years.
