Answer:

995 general admission tickets and 260 reserved seat tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by using Simultaneous equations.

General admission is $4.00 and each Reserved seat is $4.50.

Let g represent the number of General admission tickets and r represent the number of Reserved seat tickets.

The total amount paid for 1255 tickets is $5150.00.

This means two things:

1. The total number of tickets is 1255, which means if we add the general admission tickets and the number of reserved seat tickets, we will get 1255:

g + r = 1255 ________________ (1)

2. The total price of all tickets is $5150.00, which means if we multiply the number of general admission tickets by the price of general admission tickets and we multiply the number of reserved seat tickets by the price of reserved seat tickets and add them up, we will get $5150:

(4.00*g) + (4.50*r) = 5150 _________(2)

=> g + r = 1255 __________________(1)

   (4.00*g) + (4.50*r) = 5150  _________(2)

From (1):

g = 1255 - r _______ (3)

Putting (3) in (2):

{4.00*(1255 - r)} + (4.50*r) = 5150

5020 - 4.00r + 4.50r = 5150

5020 + 0.50r = 5150

=> 0.50r = 5150 - 5020

0.50r = 130

r = 130 / 0.50 = 260

Putting the value of r in (3):

g = 1255 - 260 = 995

Hence, 995 general admission tickets and 260 reserved seat tickets were sold.

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

k=4

Step-by-step explanation:

5-7k=-4(k+1)-3

Distribute

5-7k=-4k-4-3

Combine like terms

5-7k=-4k-7

Add 7k to each side

5-7k +7k = -4k+7k-7

5 = 3k-7

Add 7 to each side

5+7 = 3k-7+7

12 = 3k

Divide by 3

12/3 = 3k/3

4=k

PLS HELP ASAP THANKS ILL GIVE BRAINLKEST PLS THANKS PLS ASAP PLS PLS HELP ASAP THANKS
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

I believe the answer is B. 15/5 = n/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Once again same method as I've explained before. However, this one tricked me a little bit and still is because of the appearance of the smaller triangle. However, If I don't focus on that I believe this answer is correct. This is because in order to find the missing side we need to find the factor of which the triangle was expanded. So we must divide a given side of the bigger triangle by the same similar side of the little triangle, like 15/5. Then we must divide n by its similar side which the appearance made me think 13 which is not an option so I believe it is 12 and it was just trying to throw me off. So n/12. Therefore that is why I believe B is correct.
