On Sunday, 370 people bought tickets to the county fair. Tickets cost $7 for adults and $3 for children. The total revenue from

ticket sales on Sunday was $1750. The system of equations below represents the number of people and total sales for the county fair on Sunday, where x represents the number of child tickets and y represents the number of adult tickets.

Number of child tickets: x
Number of adult tickets: y

1) x+y=370
2) 3x+7y=1750

Using the method of substitution
a) Isolating y in the first equation:
1) x+y=370→x+y-x=370-x→y=370-x

b) Replacing y=370-x in the second equation:
2) 3x+7y=1750→3x+7(370-x)=1750

c) Solving for x: Distributive property:
3x+7(370)-7x=1750
3x+2590-7x=1750

Adding similar terms:
-4x+2590=1750

-4x+2590-2590=1750-2590
-4x=-840

Dividing both sides of the equation by -4:
-4x/(-4)=-840/(-4)
x=210

Replacing x=210 in the first equation:
1) y=370-x→y=370-210→y=160

Answer:
The number of child tickets was 210 and
the number of adult tickets was 160

A 18 foot ladder is leaning against a wall as shown
Inga [223]
I'm guessing the diagram shows a ladder leaning against a wall, making a right angle triangle with respect to the ground and the wall.

So, the wall's height is going to be the 'h', which will also be the 'opposite side' from the angle <span>ϴ which is made from the ladder and the ground.
</span>The ladder's length (18 foot) is going to be the 'hypotenuse' side and the other remaining side will be the 'adjacent'.

Now, once you've sorted out which side is which, we have to find the h (opp), and according to  SOH CAH TOA, we will choose Sin<span>ϴ = opp/hyp.
</span>so Sinϴ = h/18....now we gotta find h, so 'cross multiply' the equation to get  h = 18 x sin<span>ϴ.
</span>
To find angle ϴ, simply take the inverse of Sinϴ= h/18... and you'll get ϴ =  sin-1 (sin inverse) h/18

Hope this helps

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

5x2+6x-6=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is ax2+bx+c=0

We add 6x to both sides and we get:

WILL MARK BRAINIEST!!1 PLZ HELP!25 points!!! The coordinate grid shows points A through K. What point is a solution to the syste
marishachu [46]

Answer:

A, C, D and K

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities:

y ≤ −2x + 10  and  y >1/2x-2

<u>Finding zeros for the first inequality:</u>

  • x=0 ⇒ y= 10, point (0, 10)
  • y=0 ⇒ x= 5, point (5, 0)
  • Locating these 2 points and connecting to get the first line.

Space to the left of this line (as y≤ ) is the solution for this inequality, any points on this line are inclusive.

<u>Finding zeros for the second inequality:</u>

  • x=0 ⇒ y= -2, point (0, -2)
  • y= 0 ⇒ x= 4, point (4, 0)
  • Locating these points and connecting to get the second line.

Space above this line (as y > sign) is the solution for this inequality, any points on this line are not inclusive.

Now we have the space of intersection of the above inequalities.

So the points in same section are the solution.

They are:

  • Points A, C, D and K

See attached for explanation
