------------------------------------------
Define adult and student tickets
------------------------------------------
Let the number of adult tickets be x
Adult tickets = x
Student tickets = x + 69


------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------
x + x + 69 = 569         
2x + 69 = 569              ← Combine like terms
2x = 569 - 69               ← Subtract 69 from both sides
2x = 500
x = 250                         ← Divide by 2 to find x

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of adult tickets and student tickets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adult tickets = x = 250
Student tickets = x + 69 = 319

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Adult tickets = 250 ; Student tickets = 319
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Find 24% of $240.”<br><br> I keep trying and getting a different answer each time, please help
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$57.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you want to do is convert 24% to a decimal. To do this you just need to take the current decimal place and move it 2 places to the left. Since this percentage is a whole number the decimal is just after the 4.

(0.24)

Multiply that decimal by the number you want to find the percentage of

$240 * .24 = $57.60

A savings account earns 15% interest annually. What is the balance after 8 years in the savings account when the initial deposit
natita [175]

The balance after 8 years is $22,942.67

<h3>What is the balance after 8 years?</h3>

We know that the savings account earns 15% annually, and the initial deposit is $7500, then the balance as a function of time in years is:

B = $7500*(1 + 15%/100%)^t

B = $7500*(1.15)^t

The balance after 8 years is what we get when we evaluate the above function in t = 8, so we get:

B = $7500*(1.15)^8 = $22,942.67

So the correct option is the last one.
