Answer:

454

Step-by-step explanation:

set up a system of equation

let y be the number of students

let x be the number of adults

because there are twice the amount of students attended as adults, we can use y=2x as one equation

the other equation will be 6.5y+9x=4972 because this represents the total amount of money

plug 2x for y : 6.5(2x)+9x=4972 : x=226

plug 226 in for the first equation : y=2(226) : y=452

Stephanie's school is selling tickets to a play. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 4 adult tickets and 10 student
klemol [59]

Answer:

The price of

1 adult ticket = $15

1 student ticket = $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The price of adult tickets be represented by a

The price of student tickets be represented by s

Therefore:

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 4 adult tickets and 10 student tickets for a total of $150.

4a + 10s = $150.... Equation 1

The school took in $105 on the second day by selling 1 adult ticket and 10 student tickets.

a + 10s = $105.... Equation 2

a = $105 - 10s

Therefore, we substitute : $105 - 10s = a in Equation 1

4a + 10s = $150.... Equation 1

4($105 - 10s) + 10s = $150

$420 - 40s + 10s = $150

Collect like terms

- 40s + 10s = $150 - $420

-30s = -$270

Divide both sides by -30

-30s/-30 = -$270/-30

s = $9

We find a

a = $105 - 10s

a = $105 - 10($9)

a = $105 - $90

a = $15

Therefore, the price of

1 adult ticket = $15

1 student ticket = $9

Wes and Tom are buying rare coins for $9,500 and investing money in the ratio of 3 to 2. How much will each man invest?
inna [77]

Answer:

one spent $3,800 and the other spent $5,700

Step-by-step explanation:

first add the 3 and 2 so you get 5 then divide 9,500 into 5 which is 1900 then multiply that by 2  which is 3800 now we know one man spent $3800 then we do the same thing with 3 so we take 1900 and multiply it by three which is $5700

your answer is that one man spent $3,800 and the other spent $5,700

What is the solution of 2/3 a + 6 > 0? *
Sloan [31]

Answer:

a > - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{2}{3} a + 6 > 0 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

\frac{2}{3} a > - 6

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

2a > - 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a > - 9
