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

If the area around the vegetable garden is of uniform width (labeled with x) and the dimensions of the vegetable garden is 45 fe
Nady [450]
Area of Rectangle = Width × Length

Vegetable Garden
Width = 20
Length = 45
Area of Vegetable Garden = 20×45=900 Sq ft

Area of Entire Garden = Width × Length
Width = 20 + 2x
Length = 45 + 2x
Area = (20 + 2x)(45 + 2x)
(2x + 20)(2x + 45)
4x^2 + 90x + 45x + 900
Area of Entire Garden = 4x^2 + 135x + 900

Area of Flower Garden = Area of Entire Garden - Area of Vegetable Garden

(4x^2 + 135x + 900) - (20 × 45)
4x^2 + 135x + 900 - 900
Area of Flower Garden = 4x^2 + 135x

HELP ME PLEASE I REALLY NEED THE HELP​
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Answer = 126 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Square area formula is Area = s^2    (replace the s with the side length)

Square area -->  Area = 4^2       Area = 16in

Parallelogram area formula is Area = h * b (replace h with height length and replace b with base length)

Parallelogram area --> Area = 3.5 * 10     Area = 35

Rectangle area formula is Area = w * h    (replace width and height)

Rectangle area --> Area = 12.5 * 6    Area = 75

Then add them all up  75 + 35 + 16 = 126 square inches
