Answer:

23 child tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given, we can set up an equation to solve for the number of child tickets sold.  Since there were three times as many adult tickets as child tickets sold, we can assign the variable 'x' to represent the number of child tickets and '3x' to represent the number of adult tickets.  Since we know the cost of each ticket, as well as the total sales, we can set up the following equation:

5.20x + 9.70(3x) = 788.90

Simplify 5.20x + 29.1x = 788.90

Combine like terms:  34.3x = 788.90

Divide both sides by 34.3:  x = 23 child tickets

pickupchik [31]

Answer: There is 40% of team's win that Ryan score a goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

                              Team Won   Team lost

Ryan scored               6                   4

Did not score             9                   11

(by Ryan)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total                          15                    15

Percentage of team's win that Ryan score a goal is given by

\dfrac{6}{15}\times 100\\\\=40\%

Hence, there is 40% of team's win that Ryan score a goal.

Mathematicians use "..." to mean that a pattern continues: it
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that A is the sum of all odd numbers that are less than 100

So A= 1+3+5+...+99

We can calculate this sum without adding all this numbers one by one

A = the number of terms *( first term + last one ) over 2

To get the number of terms we substract the first term from the last term then we add one

We khow that odd numbers are wiritten this way : 2*n +1 where n is an integer

So 99= 2*49+1

1= 2*0+1

So the number of terms is : 49-0+1 =50

So A= 50*(1+99)/2 = 2500

Foloowing the same method we get :

B= (49-1+1)*(2+98)/2= 2450

A>B

Solve for P:<br><br> 9(p−4)=−18<br><br> Please Explain
vekshin1

Answer:

<em>p</em> = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Happy to help.

When we have numbers in parenthesis, we generally want to deal with those first. However, we can hit a rough patch when a variable is in there. Consider this:

2(3 + 4) = 2(7), or 14.

But, the two can also be distributed into both numbers in the parenthesis, like this:

2(3 + 4) = 2*3 + 2*4

That leaves us with the same answer—14! We can apply this to a variable, and that will help us figure out 9(<em>p</em> - 4), or the left side of your equation you presented.

9(<em>p</em> - 4) = -18

9*<em>p</em> - 9*4 = -18

9<em>p</em> - 36 = -18

Add 36 on both sides to isolate the variable (in this case, <em>p)</em>

9<em>p</em> = -18 + 36

You can also write it like this; 9<em>p</em> = 36 - 18

9<em>p</em> = 18

Divide 9 to isolate <em>p</em>

<em>p</em> = 2

So, we would get (<em>p</em> = 2). Make sure to practice a few more questions like these to really get the hang of it—you'll be using this a lot in the future!

Good luck!
