Answer:

An adult ticket is 17

A childs ticket costs 12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = adult price

c = child price

3a + 4c = 99

2a + 3c = 70

Multiply the first equation by 2

2(3a + 4c) = 99*2

6a + 8c = 198

Multiply the second equation by -3

-3 (2a + 3c) = 70*-3

-6a -9c = -210

Add these new equations together

6a + 8c = 198

-6a -9c = -210

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

     -c = -12

Multiply by -1

        c = 12

A childs ticket costs 12 dollars

Now we need to find the price of an adult ticket

2a + 3c = 70

2a + 3(12) = 70

2a +36 = 70

Subtract 36 from each side

2a +36-36 =70-36

2a = 34

Divide by 2

2a/2 = 34/2

a = 17

An adult ticket is 17

Which of the following is equivalent to the radical expression below?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

For this case we must indicate an expression equivalent to:

\sqrt {10x ^ 7}

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have that:

\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}

Then, we can rewrite the expression as:

10 ^ {\frac {1} {2}} * x ^ {\frac {7} {2}}

Answer:

OPTION A
