X= number of adult tickets
y=number of child tickets.
we can suggest this system of equations: 
x+y=118                 ⇒x=118-y
7.5x+3y=696

we can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
7.5(118-y)+3y=696
885-7.5y+3y=696
-4.5y=-189
y=-189/-4.5
y=42

x=118-y
x=118-42
x=76

Answer: the number of adult tickets sold was 76.

What is 25% of 24?<br> What is 15% of 60?<br> 9 is what percent of 72
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

6

9

6.48

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the easiest way to solve for percentage:

\frac{part}{whole} =\frac{part}{whole}  Where all the percents (except 100) would go in part

and the whole number would go in whole

\frac{25}{100} =\frac{?}{24}  Then multiply 24 × 25 ÷ 100 = 6

\frac{15}{100} =\frac{?}{60}  Multiply 60 by 25 then divided by 100 = 9

Then for the last one 9 is what percent of 72

all we have to do is multiply 9 and then convert 72 into a decimal (0.72)

Then 9 × 0.72 = 6.48

Write the following function in standard form. Show your work. y=(x-5)(x+5)(2x-1)
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

\boxed{y=4x^3-x^2-50x+25}


Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is


y=(x-5)(x+5)(2x-1)


Observe that, the first two factors are from difference of two squares.


\Rightarrow y=(x^2-5^2)(2x-1)


\Rightarrow y=(x^2-25)(2x-1)

We expand the brackets using the distributive property to obtain;

\Rightarrow y=2x^2(2x-1)-25(2x-1)


\Rightarrow y=4x^3-x^2-50x+25


The above function is now in standard form, since the terms are arranged in descending powers of x.
