Answer:

  646 child tickets are sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of child tickets sold. Then (c-186) is the number of student tickets sold, and (c+234) is the number of adult tickets sold. The total number sold is ...

  (c -186) + c + (c+234) = 1986

  3c +48 = 1986 . . . simplify

  c + 16 = 662 . . . . divide by 3

  c = 646 . . . . . . . . . subtract 16

The number of child tickets sold is 646.

What is 20 5/81 in simplest form
Marizza181 [45]
20 5/81 in its simplest form is 20 5/81.

20 5/81 originally looks like this ⇒ 1625/81

((20 * 81)+5)/81 = (1620+5)/81 = 1625/81   * this is an improper fraction because the numerator is greater than the denominator. Improper fractions must be converted to proper fractions. It will then become a mixed fraction.
 
     <u>  0020  5/81</u>        
81 | 1625
       <u>162      </u>      * 81 x 2

Complete the square and write in function form f(x)=x^2+5x+3
Over [174]
F(x) = x^2 +5x + 3

     = (x + 2.5)^2 - 6.25 + 3

     = (x + 2.5)^2 - 3.25

That is vertex form. I am not sure what you mean by function form

Estimate each the quotient 78÷4 is about _____÷4
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick is to pick something that should be very easy to get an answer to. If you use a calculator, you are not estimating.  80 divide by 4 is like 8 divide by 4 which gives you 2. Then just add a zero. Here's another one you can try. Put your calculator away to do it. 12 chicken noodle  soup cans cost 14 dollars. About how much does 1 can cost

no cheating. No calculator. Is the cost of 1 can more or less than a dollar? If you said more, you've estimated correctly.

Try it the other way. Suppose one can of the soup costs 0.95 cents. How many will 12 cans cost? More or less than 12 dollars.

If you said less, you are estimating correctly. The most useful gift you can take away from any math class is estimation.

On Monday, a localamburger shop said a combined total of 225 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of cheeseburgers sold was
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

h = hamburgers sold

2h - 72 = 578

2h = 650

2       2

h = 325

There were 72 fewer cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers. That means cheeseburgers = 325 - 72

325 - 72 =  253

253 = cheeseburgers

325 = hamburgers

253 + 325 = 578

Hamburgers = 325

Hope this helps :)
