Create formulas!

x=number of adult tickets

y=number of student tickets

x+y=644  <em>total sold</em>

56+y=x    <em>student was 56 less than adult</em>

Perform substitution

(56+y)+y=644

56+2y=644

2y=588

y=294

Substitute y into the formula we created

x+294=644

x=350

350 adult tickets were sold.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adult tickets.

Number of student tickets = 56 fewer than adult tickets

                                            = x - 56

Total tickets  = 644

x + (x - 56) = 644

x + x - 56 = 644

2x - 56 = 644

Add 56 to both sides

2x - 56 + 56 = 644 + 56

2x = 700

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 700/2

x = 350

350 adult tickets were sold

If the circumference of the circle is 37.68 units, what is the area? (Use 3.14 for pi .)
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Area of the circle = 113.04\;units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 37.68\;units

Circumference of the circle = 2\times \pi  \times r

As,

    \pi =\dfrac{22}{7}=3.14

                        37.68=2\times \pi  \times r\\\\37.68=2\times 3.14 \times r\\\\37.68=6.28\times r\\\\r=\dfrac{37.68}{6.28} \\\\r=6\;units

Area of a circle = \pi \times r^2

                       =3.14\times (6\times 6)\\\\=3.14\times 36\\\\=113.04\;units^2
