Answer:the number of adult tickets that were sold is 160

the number of students tickets that were sold is $125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of students tickets that were sold.

A total of 285 tickets are sold. This means that

x + y = 285

Adult tickets are $4 and student tickets are $1. A total of 285 tickets are sold for $765. This mean that

4x + y = 765 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 285 - y into equation 1, it becomes

4(285 - y) + y = 765

1140 - 4y + y = 765

- 4y + y = 765 - 1140

- 3y = - 375

y = - 375/-3 = 125

Substituting y = 125 into x = 285 - y, it becomes

x =285 - 125 = 160 tickets

Factor completely 3X^2 -25​
Dominik [7]

In order to factor a polynomial, you have to find its roots

x_1,\ x_2,\ldots,x_n

So that you can factor it as

p(x)=(x-x_1)(x-x_2)\cdots(x-x_n)

So, in this case, we're looking for the solutions of

3x^2-25=0 \iff 3x^2=25 \iff x^2 = \dfrac{25}{3} \iff x=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{25}{3}}=\pm\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{3}}

So, the polynomial can be written as

3x^2-25 = \left(x-\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{3}}\right)\left(x+\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{3}}\right)

HELPPPPP MEEEEE!!! #7

Angle 6 and Angle 7 are each 90° since they’re on a straight line and are both equal.
180-90= 90
*you subtract from 180 because that’s how many degrees are in a straight line*
Angle 7 and Angle 1 are alternate exterior angles so that makes them congruent by definition.

Determine whether each statement is true or false. if true, explain your reasoning . If false provide a counter example.
Goshia [24]

Answer:

1. False

2. False

3. True

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The diagonals of a rectangle always form four congruent triangles, which is a false statement.

The counter-statement will be, the diagonals of a square always form four congruent triangles.

2. A quadrilateral has perpendicular diagonals. Is this enough to determine what type of quadrilateral it is?

The answer is no.

The counter-statement will be, a quadrilateral has perpendicular diagonals, then it may be a rhombus or a square.

3. Explain why drawing a diagonal on any parallelogram will always result in two congruent triangles and it is true that the two triangles will be congruent as the opposite sides of the parallelogram are equal and there is a common side which is the diagonal itself.

Therefore, using SSS criteria the triangles are congruent. (Answer)
