Answer: 12 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use system of equations to find how many child tickets were sold. Let's say x is adult and y is child.

Equation 1

5.25x+3.05y=498.6

This equation comes from the cost of tickets.

Equation 2

x+y=100

This equation comes from the number of tickets.

We can use elimination method to solve for y.

5.25x+3.05y=498.6

5.25x+5.25y=525

Now, we can subtract the equations for x to cancel out and to solve for y.

-2.2y=-26.4

y=12

4 red marbles
6 blue marbles
8 green marbles

Add:

4 + 6 = 10
10 + 8 = 18
18 total marbles 

Green marbles/total marbles 
 
8/18

Simplify:

8 ÷ 2 = 4
18 ÷ 2 = 9
Simplest form = 4/9 

8/18 = 4/9

Need help on this please help

Answer:

The measure of ∠A is 127°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180°. Since you can fix <em>three</em> triangles into a pentagon, the sum of its interior of angles is 540° You could also look at how many angles there are (5), multiply that number by 180°, then subtract 360° from the product.

540° - (113° + 80° + 130° + 90°) = ∠A

540° - 413° = 127°

∠A = 127°

<em>Hope this helps,</em>

You need 1 1/4 cups of sugar to make 20 cookies. To make 12 cookies you will need ____ cups of sugar?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

0.75 or 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

We need 1 1/4, or 1.25 cups of sugar for 20 cookies, and we need x cups of sugar for 12 cookies

1.25/20=x/12

To solve, we need to get the variable,x, by itself. It is being divided by 12. To reverse this, multiply both sides by 12.

12(1.25/20)=(x/12)12

The 12s on the right will cancel, and we are left with

0.75=x

0.75 is equivalent to 3/4

So, 0.75 or 3/4 cups of sugar is needed to make 12 cookies
