Set x as adult tickets.
Set y as children's tickets.
x + y = 15
30x + 20y = 270
Solve for x in the first equation.
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
Plug this into the second equation.
30x + 20y = 270
30(15 - y) + 20y = 270
450 - 30y + 20y = 270
450 - 10y = 270
-10y = -180
y = 18
If there is 18 childrens tickets, there should be -3 adult tickets.
This is impossible, and this impossible answer occured because the question is written wrong.
There are a total of 15 tickets
The smallest costing ticket is the childrens ticket, which costs 20$.
If he only bought children tickets, this would be 20x15 which is 300$.
300$ is over 270$, which makes the question impossible.

What is the measure of angle 1?
svp [43]

Answer:

88°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 parallel lines, first we use the Corresponding Angles Postulate.

Since angle 2 is corresponding to the 92° angle,

angle 2 = 92°

Now we know that angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary.

This means:

angle 1 + angle 2 = 180°

<em>(substitute known values)</em>

angle 1 + 92 = 180

<em>(subtract 92 on both sides)</em>

<h2>angle 1 = 88°</h2><h2></h2>

Hope this helps, please say thanks if it does!

Triangle A B C is shown. Angle B C A is a right angle. The length of hypotenuse A B is 26, the length of A C is 10, and the leng
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

<h2>The right option is twelve-fifths</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a right angle triangle ABC as shown in the diagram. If ∠BCA = 90°, the hypotenuse AB = 26, AC = 10 and BC = 24.

Using the SOH, CAH, TOA trigonometry identity, SInce we are to find tanA, we will use TOA. According to TOA;

Tan (A) = opp/adj

Taken BC as opposite side since it is facing angle A directly and AC as the adjacent;

tan(A) = BC/AC

tan(A) = 24/10

tan(A) = 12/5

The right option is therefore twelve-fifths

A survey of
Zina [86]

Answer:

0.0208<p<0.0592

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given the sample size is 400 and the desired proportion is 16.

-The confidence interval can be determined as follows:

CI=\hat p\pm z\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p}{n}}\\\\\hat p=x/n=16/400=0.04

#We the use this proportion to find the CI at 95%:

CI=0.04\pm 1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.04(1-0.04)}{400}}\\\\=0.04\pm 0.0192\\\\=[0.0208,0.0592]

Hence, the 95% confidence interval is 0.0208<p<0.0592
