Answer:

Adult tickets = 18

Children tickets = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write 2 equations and solve:

let number of adult tickets be a and number of children tickets be c

Adult ticket cost is 8 and children cost is 5 and total money is 269, thus:

1. 8a + 5c = 269

Also, he sells seven more children's tickets than adult tickets, thus:

2. c - 7 = a

Now substituting 2 into 1, we can solve for c:

8a + 5c = 269

8(c-7) + 5c = 269

8c - 56 + 5c = 269

13c = 325

c = 325/13 = 25

Now using equation 2, we can solve for a:

c - 7 = a

25 - 7 = a

a = 18

So, 18 adult tickets and 25 children's ticket

A standard number cube is tossed. Find the following probability. ​P(greater than 4 or odd​)
lorasvet [3.4K]
A standard cube has 6 possible outcomes. But since we want to find P(4+ or odd), the outcomes become more narrow.
So:
6 outcomes -> 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

But we want to find 4+
So:
4+ = 4, 5, 6

We also want to find all odd possibilities.
So:
odd = 1, 3, 5

As you can see, there is a 5 in both the 4+ and the odd numbers so 5 will only be counted once.
P(4+ or odd) = 1, 3, 4, 5, 6

So the probability of having an outcome that is P(4+ or odd) is:
5/6 or 0.8333 or 83.33%

Hope I helped!

Find the slope of the line passing through these points: (5,2) and (-10,12)
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is found by

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (12-2)/(-10 -5)

   = 10/-15

    = -2/3
