Let x be the unknown amount of child tickets 
Let 450 - x be the unknown amount of adult tickets (This is because the total amount subtracted from the child tickets can only be the adult tickets since there are no other tickets)

2x+5(450-x)=1800

(2x because each child ticket cost $2 and same for the adult tickets. Each adult ticket cost $5. So, the sum must be 1800.)

Simplify the equation.


2x+5(450-x)=1800   *Distribute*

2x+2250-5x=1800   *Combine like terms. (2-5=-3)*

-3x + 2250 = 1800    *Move constants and variables to opposite sides*
       -2250      -2250
---------------------------
-3x=-450                     *Divide by 3 to isolate the variable*
----  ------
-3     -3

x=150

So, there are 150 child tickets. To find adult tickets, just subtract children tickets from the amount of tickets bought (450-150) to get 300 adult tickets sold.

Answer:

top left

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at both equations they both have 2x in them. This makes it easier to eliminate x. To eliminate x we must subtract the second equation from the first (because 2x - 2x = 0).

Can anybody help me with this problem?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

According to the Unit Circle, sin π\6 is ½, so we plug this into the cosine function to get this:

cos π\6 - π\6 → cos 0 >> 1

If you are ever in need of assistance, do not hesitate to let me know by subscribing to my You-Tube channel [USERNAME: MATHEMATICS WIZARD], and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.

** I do not have Unit Circle video uploaded yet, but if I need to, just notify me in the comments or on of course, You-Tube.

*** Plus, we need to make sure that the x-value falls in between 0 and π\2, which it did, so no need to worry.
