Answer:

21 child tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of adult tickets and y represent number of child tickets.  

We have been given that on Thursday, three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold. We can represent this information in an equation as:

x=3y...(1)

We have been given that at a the movie theater, child admission is $6.10 and adult admission is $9.20.The all tickets were sold for a total of $707.70. We can represent this information in an equation as:

9.20x+6.10y=707.70...(2)  

Upon substituting equation (1) in equation (2), we will get:

9.20(3y)+6.10y=707.70  

27.6y+6.10y=707.70

33.7y=707.70

\frac{33.7y}{33.7}=\frac{707.70}{33.7}

y=21

Therefore, 21 child tickets were sold on Thursday.

Where in the bible is there an indication of the value of pi what was the approximate value?
Morgarella [4.7K]
The Bible, a book that is considered the perfect word of a perfect god tells us what the value of Pi is. Let's see verse 1 Kings 7:23
 He also melted a sea of ​​ten cubits from one side to the other, perfectly round; Its height was five cubits, and a cord of thirty cubits encircled it.

 These are a list of specifications for the great temple of King Solomon, built about 950 BCE, and his interest here is that it gives a value of π = 3. If we divide 30 cubits between 10 cubits (which are the measures mentioned in written radical) gives us exactly 3.

 We know that the length of the circumference is calculated l = 2 · π · r; Since 2 · r is the diameter, it can also be said that

 circumference = diameter × π

 If we go back to what the Bible says, the diameter is 5 meters and the circumference of 15:

 circumference = diameter × π -> 15 = 5 × π

 with which the value of π is 3.

 This calculation of Pi is a bad approximation to the real value. The figure of 3 in the Bible compared with the real one which is 3.1416 ... indicates an error of about 6%.

Rachel jogged along a trail that was 1/4 of a mile long. She jogged along the trail 8 times. How many miles did Rachel jog?
ki77a [65]
I am thinking as wisely as I can. I believe that Rachel would have jogged 2 miles, if you think about it. If 1/4 of the trail is jogged each time, and she does that 8 times, 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4= 8/4 or 2. I hope this helped!
