Answer:
- s + a = 250
- 3s + 5a = 1050
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s and a represent the numbers of student and adult tickets sold. The system of equations that can be written from the given information is ...
s + a = 250 . . . . . . total of tickets sold
3s +5a = 1050 . . . dollar value of tickets sold
_____
The solution is (s, a) = (100, 150). 100 student tickets and 150 adult tickets were sold.
This is the number of combinations of 2 from 23
23C2 = 23! / 2! 21!
A quick way to do this is 23*22 / 2 = 253
The half of a cake has volume which can be divided by 3
5x + 8y = -29
7x - 2y = -67 ..... multiply both sides by 4
5x + 8y = -29
28x - 8y = -268
33x + 0y = -297
x = -9
(-9, 2)
