133 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total tickets sold for school play = 399

Let,

x represent the number of children tickets sold.

y represent the number of adult tickets sold.

According to given statement;

x+y=399      Eqn 1

x = 2y           Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

2y+y=399\\3y=399

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{399}{3}\\y=133

133 adult tickets were sold.

What number is exponent?
qwelly [4]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The base B represents the number you multiply and the exponent "x" tells you how many times you multiply the base, and you write it as "B^ x." For example, 8^3 is 8X8X8=512 where "8" is the base, "3" is the exponent and the whole expression is the power.
