Assign x to adult tickets and y to student tickets, then set up the system
5x+y=2465 and
x+y=1077
You can subtract the second equation from the first to get
4x=1388
=> x=347
Then to find y do 1077-347 to find
y=730

Final answer:
347 adult tickets and 730 student tickets were sold.
Hope I helped :)

Let, the number of student tickets = x
Number of Adult's ticket = y

Equations = x + 5y = 2465
x + y = 1077

Subtract the equations, 
4y = 1388
y = 1388/4
y = 347

Substitute it in 2nd equation, 
x + 347 = 1077
x = 1077 - 347 = 730

In short, Student tickets = 730; Adult tickets = 347

Hope this helps!

6x+3(4x-2)=5(2x-8) the answer is -17/4 but can someone explain how to get that answer? plz help lol​
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

<h2>x =  -  \frac{17}{4}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 3(4x - 2) = 5(2x - 8)

Expand the terms in the bracket and simplify

That's

6x + 12x  - 6 = 10x - 40 \\ 18x - 6 = 10x - 40

Using the subtraction property subtract 10x from both sides of the equation

18x - 10x - 6 = 10x - 10x - 40 \\ 8x - 6 =  - 40

<u>Add 6 to both sides of the equation</u>

8x + 6 - 6 =  - 40 + 6 \\ 8x =  - 34

<u>Divide both sides by 8</u>

\frac{8x}{8}  =  -  \frac{34}{8}

<u>Reduce the fraction with 2</u>

We have the final answer as

x =  -  \frac{17}{4}

Hope this helps you

The length of each side of a rhombus is 10 and the measure of an angle of the rhombus is 60. Find the length of the longer diago
Svetllana [295]
The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other, and are also angle bisectors. The 4 congruent right triangles the rhombus is cut into by the two diagonals are 30-60-90 degree triangles, the longer leg is √3/2 of the hypotenuse, √3/2 of 10=5√3. so the longer diagonal is twice of 5√3=10√3
