30 tickets

Step by step:
When you multiply 30x8 you get 240. You multiply by 8 because that is how much one adult ticket costs. And they tell you that they sold a total of 70 tickets, which means to find the number of children tickets that were sold would be 70-30=40. Then to prove that for sure, multiply...

40x5=200. You multiply by 5 because that is how much one children ticket costs.

Then when you add the totals of the adult tickets sold and the children tickets sold, you get $440, which means that 30 adult tickets were sold!!

You can use this same process for problems like these or to verify the answer!

Please give me brainliest!
Hope this helped!

If 60 is 75% of s value, what is that value

ohaa [14]

Let's write it down:
"60 is 75% of s" means:

60=75%*s

75% is $\frac{75}{100}= \frac{3}{4}$ , (percent just means "out of 100" so we just divide it by 100) so we can also write:

60= $\frac{3}{4}$ s

now, let's multiply both sides by 4:

240=3s

and divide by 3:
80=s

So we have the result that the original value, s, is 80!

The length of each side of a regular pentagon is increased by 8 inches, so the perimeter is now 65 inches. What is the original

evablogger [386]

Here as the Pentagon is regular so it's all sides will be of equal length . And if we assume It's each side be s , then it's perimeter is going to be (s+s+s+s+s) = 5s.And as here , each side is increased by 8 inches and then it's perimeter is 65 inches , so we got that it's side after increament is (s+8) inches and original length is s inches . And if it's each side is (s+8) inches , so it's perimeter will be 5(s+8) and as it's equal to 65 inches . So , 5(s+8) = 65

${:\implies \quad \sf 5(s+8)=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s+5\times 8=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s+40=65}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s=65-40}$

${:\implies \quad \sf 5s=25}$

${:\implies \quad \sf s=\dfrac{25}{5}=5}$

${:\implies \quad \bf \therefore \quad \underline{\underline{s=5\:\: Inches}}}$

As we assumed the original side to be s .

Hence, the original side's length 5 inches

A basketball game a team made 52 successful shots they were a combination of 1- and 2- point shots the team scored 86 points in

jasenka [17]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

x = one point shots

y = two point shots

1) Setup your equations.

x + y = 52

x + 2y = 89

2) Isolate a variable.

x = 52-y

3) Plug in.

(52-y) + 2y = 89

52 +y =89

y=37

4) Solve for x.

x = 52 -37

x=15

5) Check your answer.

15 + 2(37) = 89

15+74=89

89=89

37+15 = 52

52=52

x = one point shots

y = two point shots

1) Setup your equations.

x + y = 52

x + 2y = 89

2) Isolate a variable.

x = 52-y

3) Plug in.

(52-y) + 2y = 89

52 +y =89

y=37

4) Solve for x.

x = 52 -37

x=15

5) Check your answer.

15 + 2(37) = 89

15+74=89

89=89

37+15 = 52

52=52
