Answer: number of tickets sold to adult = 566

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of tickets sold by DCHS to students.

Let y = number of tickets sold DCHS to adults.

Tickets to Dundee crowns mr.dchs are $3 for students and $5 for adults.

This means cost of total tickets sold to students and adults is $3x and $5y respectively.

If DCHS collected $3943 for the tickets, then we have

3x + 5y = 3943 - - - - - -1

The number of adult tickets sold was 195 more than the number of student tickets. This means

y = x +195.

Put y = x +195 in equation 1

3x + 5(x+195) = 3943

3x + 5x + 975= 3943

8x +975=3943

8x = 3943-975= 2968

x = 2968/8 = 371

y = 371 + 195= 566

Y/a −b= y/b −a, if a≠b<br><br> solve for y
Kamila [148]

Answer:

y= ab    if a≠b

Step-by-step explanation:

y/a −b= y/b −a

multiply each side by ab to clear the fractions

ab(y/a −b) = ab( y/b −a)

distribute

ab * y/a - ab*b = ab * y/b - ab *a

b*y - ab^2 = ay -a^2 b

subtract ay on each side

by -ay -ab^2 = ay-ay -a^2b

by -ay -ab^2 =-a^2b

add ab^2 to each side

by-ay -ab^2 +ab^2 = ab^2 - a^2b

by-ay = ab^2 - a^2b

factor out the y on the left, factor out an ab on the right

y (b-a) = ab(b-a)

divide by (b-a)

y (b-a) /(b-a)= ab(b-a)/(b-a)    b-a ≠0   or b≠a

y = ab

The area of a square ice rink is 400 yd.². What is the perimeter of the rink in yards
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

80 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the formula for squares is s^2, we can use this to set up an equation, which is

s^2=400

If we square root this, we get

s=20

The perimeter formula for a square is 4s, so if we plug in, we end up with 80 yd^2

Maya and Mabel are inspecting an 80:1 scale floor plan of their new house. The dimensions of the living room on the scaled floor
AveGali [126]

Answer:

208 ⅓ ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1⅞ = 15/8 inches ÷ 12

= 5/32 feet on map

Actual = 5/32 × 80

= 25/2 feet

2½ = 5/2 inches ÷ 12

= 5/24 feet on map

Actual = 5/24 × 80 = 50/3

Actual area:

25/2 × 50/3

= 625/3 ft²

= 208 ⅓ ft²

Jamal is making two paintings using canvases that are similar rectangles. The length of the smaller canvas is 3 ft and the width
Alex787 [66]
Let's start with what we know:

Smaller canvas:
Length (L_{1}) = 3ft
Width (W_{1}) = 5ft

Larger canvas:
Length (L_{2}) = ?
Width (W_{2}) = 10ft

Since these are similar rectangles, we can cross-multiply to calculate the missing length. Here's that formula:

\frac{ L_{1} }{ L_{2} } =  \frac{ W_{1} }{ W_{2} }
So let's plug it all in from above:

\frac{ 3 }{ L_{2} } = \frac{ 5 }{ 10 }
Now we cross multiply by multiplying the top-left by the bottom-right and vice versa:

(3)(10) = (5)(L_{2})
30 = 5L_{2}
Now divide each side by 5 to isolate L_{2}

\frac{30}{5} =  \frac{ 5L_{2}}{5}
The 5s on the right cancel out, leaving us with:

6 =  L_{2}

So the length of the larger canvas is 6 ft
