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

In 1980, the number of high school dropouts in a country was 5217 thousand. By 2008, this number had decreased to 3120 thousand.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

74893 students per year

Step-by-step explanation:

The Average rate of change is calculated as

= Difference in number of students / Difference in years

= 3120 thousand - 5217 thousands/ 2008 - 1980

= (3120000 - 5217000)/(2008 - 1980)

= -2097000/28

= -74892.857143 per year

Therefore, the average rate of change

per year in the number of high school dropouts is approximately 74893 students per year
