Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a+s=14
a=14-s
a+8s=56, using a from above in this equation gives
14-s+8s=56
14+7s=56
7s=42
s=6
a=14-s
a=14-6=8
So student tickets cost $6 and adult tickets cost $8.
4/5 divided by 1/10 is 8 the answer is 8
4,752 will be your answer
Answer:
237
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a system of equations.
The theater sold 364 adult and child tickets, so a + c = 364
They made a total of $1930. Each adult ticket was $6 & child tickets were $4. The second equation is 6a + 4c = 1930.
Let's line them up
a + c = 364
6a + 4c = 1930
Since we need to solve for the number of adult tickets, we want to get rid of the c variable. I'm going to multiply the entire first equation by -4 to do this. The second equation stays the same. Now, I have:
-4a - 4c = -1456
6a + 4c = 1930 Add them together
----------------------
2a = 474 Divide by 2 to solve for a
a = 237
There were 237 adult tickets sold
