10 meters by 12 meters.

10 x 12 = 120

cut it in half 10 meters by 6 meters or 5 meters by 12 meters

both equaling out to 60 square meters after being cut in half.

You and your friend are selling tickets to a charity event. You sell 11 adult tickets and 8 student tickets for $158. Your frien
svetlana [45]
So what we have to do to solve this problem is to write down those values in 2 equations (one that represents what you sold and the other what your friend sold) compare them and find how much each ticket is worth.
First equation : 11x + 8y = 158
Where x = how much each adult ticket is
and y = how much each student ticket is

The second equation is : 5x + 17y = 152

Using the method of substitution , we can compare each equation side by side:
11x + 8y = 158
5x + 17y = 152
Now we need to set one of the variables of both equations so they are equal:
11(5)x + 8(5) = 158(5)
5(11)x + 17(11)x = 152(11)

55x + 40y = 790
55x + 187y = 1672

Then we subtract the second equation by the first one

55x-55x + 187y - 40y = 1672 - 790
147y = 882
y = 6
The we apply y to one of the equations to discover x :
11x + 8y = 158
11x + 8(6) = 158
11x + 48 = 158
11x = 110
x = 10

So the awnser is :
Each adult ticket (x) is $10
And each student ticket (y) is $8

PLZ HELP ASAP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST

Answer:

72\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a rhombus is calculated as

A = \frac{1}{2} × d₁ × d₂ (d₁ and d₂ are the diagonals )

The diagonals bisect each other at right angles

d₁ = 2 × 6 = 12

Use the tangent ration in the upper left right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = \sqrt{3}

tan60° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{opp}{6} = \sqrt{3} ( multiply both sides by 6 )

opp = 6\sqrt{3} , then

d₂ = 2 × 6\sqrt{3} = 12\sqrt{3}

Thus

A = \frac{1}{2} × 12 × 12\sqrt{3} = 6 × 12\sqrt{3} = 72\sqrt{3}

Question 8 of 10
Sliva [168]

Answer:

y = (-3/7)x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

all you need to do is plug the values into the equation! :)

since your slope is (-3/7), plug that in for m.

y = mx + b ⇒ y = (-3/7)x + b

and since your y-intercept is 2, plug that in for b.

y = (-3/7)x + b ⇒ y = (-3/7)x + 2

therefore, the line's equation in slope-intercept form is y = (-3/7)x + 2.

<em>don't worry about the parentheses, i only put them in there to separate the 7 in -3/7 from x. i'm not good at putting equations in here on brainly lol i just wanted to make sure you didn't think that it was -3 over 7x.</em>

<em />

i hope this helps! have a lovely day <3
