Answer:

adult tickets = 17, children tickets = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children and y the number of adults

Then given that 26 tickets are sold, we can write

x + y = 26 → (1)

Given that ticket cost was $194 we can write

5.5x + 8.5y = 194 → (2)

Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x by subtracting x from both sides

y = 26 - x → (3)

Substitute y = 26 - x into (2)

5.5x + 8.5(26 - x) = 194 ← distribute and simplify left side

5.5x + 221 - 8.5x = 194

- 3x + 221 = 194 ( subtract 221 from both sides )

- 3x = - 27 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 9

Substitute x = 9 into (3) for corresponding value of y

y = 26 - 9 = 17

Hence number of adult tickets sold = 17

number of children tickets sold = 9

A mole of 1 gallon cans of paint could cover every square inch of the surface of how many planets the size of the earth?
Nady [450]

Answer:

The answer is 4.4*10^1^0 planets

Step-by-step explanation:

We ll have to find more information first to solve this question.

1. One mole = 6.022 x 10^23

Assuming one gallon of paint covers the 400 sq ft of area.

Thus total area which can be covered by 1 mole of gallon is

=6.022*10^2^3 * 400\\=2.40*10^2^6

2. Now we will find the surface area of earth

Area = 4\pi R^2

The radius of earth is 2.1 x 10^7 Feet

substituting values

Area = 4*3.14*(2.1*10^7)^2\\Area = 5.5*10^1^5ft^2

3. Now we will find out the number of planets of earth size which can be covered by mole of gallon of paint

= Total area one mole of gallon can cover / area of earth

= 2.40 * 10^2^6/5.5*10^1^5\\=4.4*10^1^0 planets
