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

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ BAD = 90° and

∠ DAC + ∠ CAB = ∠ BAD, that is

x + 2x - 30 = 90

3x - 30 = 90 ( add 30 to both sides )

3x = 120 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 40 → b

Explain how the number line can
DochEvi [55]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  points closest to zero will give the least change; those farthest away will give the greatest change. Listing the points in order by distance from 0 will put them in order by amount of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of change is the absolute value of the number on the number line. That value is the (positive) distance from 0. The numbers will most easily be compared if they are all put on one side of zero. For example, -1.75 and 1.75 are the same distance from zero, as are -3.25 and 3.25.

Listing the points in order by distance from 0 will put them in order by amount of change. In order, least change to greatest change, the numbers are ...

  -1.75, 2.50, -3.25, -3.50, 4.75

2.5 ( y + ⅖ ) = -13<br> im really bad at math someone pls help
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

-5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

first distribute the 2.5

also convert the 2/5 to decimal (0.4) because it's hard to work with both decimal and fraction

2.5y + 2.5*0.4 = -13

2.5y +1 = -13

y = -14/2.5 = -5.6
