Answer:

  • 124 children
  • 200 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

It usually works well to let a variable represent quantity of the highest-value contributor. Here, that is the quantity of adult tickets.

Let "a" represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then (324-a) is the number of admission fees for children. The total revenue is ...

  5.40a +2.50(324 -a) = 1390

  2.90a +810 = 1390 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  2.90a = 580 . . . . . . . . . subtract 810

  a = 200 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 2.90

The number of children admitted was 124; the number of adults admitted was 200.

Answer: number of children equals 124

number of adults equals 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children that were admitted.

Let y represent the number of adults that were admitted.

On a certain day, 324 people entered the park. It means that

x + y = 324- - - - - - - - - - - 1

The admission fee at an amusement park is $2.50 for children and $5.40 for adults. The admission fees collected totaled $1390. It means that

2.5x + 5.4y = 1390- - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 324 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2.5(324 - y) + 5.4y = 1390

810 - 2.5y + 5.4y = 1390

- 2.5y + 5.4y = 1390 - 810

2.9x = 580

x = 580/2.9

x = 200

x = 324 - y = 324 - 200

x = 124

Please I need help and I need more practice one this please

You need to figure what increment each dash line represents. Since given -6 and -14 is 2 dash lines away, you find the difference
-14-(-6) = 8
Since it was 2 dashes away, 8/2 = 4
So, each increment is by 4. 
Since this is the negative direction and the blue dot is 4 increments away, 
-14-4-4-4-4= -30

Answer:

Thus last month Calvin made $414.90 from all the paintings sold at the art shows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first analyse the given information in the question:

→ Small paints (lets call them s) sell for $25.80 Per Painting, thus:

  25.80s gives as the profit for s number paints sold.

→ Large paints (lets call them l) sell for $56.25 Per Painting, thus:

  56.25l gives as the profit for l number paints sold.

We also know last month he sold six large paintings and three small paintings thus from our variables above we can say:

s=3\\l=6         Eqn(1).

Thus the total profit of all paintings sold would be:

PROFIT= 25.80s+56.25l       which by pluggin in Eqn(1) values gives

PROFIT=25.80*3+56.25*6\\PROFIT=414.90

Thus last month Calvin made $414.90 from all the paintings sold at the art shows.
