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

1. Proportion equation
350/1200 = 5/x

2. Cross multiply 
1200*5=250*x
x=(1200*5)/250 = (24*50*5)/(5*50) = 24

Help please I don’t understand it show work

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you solve for length width and height, which multiplied equal volume. The only constant you have is that the width of the prism is 1/3 of its length.

WIDTH: 3 centimeters

LENGTH: Since the width is 1/3 of the length, 3 is 1/3 of something. So divide 3 by 1/3 to get 9. You can also just multiply 3 by 3.

HEIGHT: The height is half of the width, which is 3. Therefore 3 divided by 2 is 1.5.

Now multiply the values. 3 multiplied by 9 multiplied by 1.5

The answer is 40.5
