Answer:

If 48 adults and 26 children attended the matinee on Sunday, the theater raised $ 514 from ticket sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of linear equations is a set of linear equations that have more than one unknown, which are related through the equations.

In this case, being:

  • A: adult ticket price
  • C: child ticket price.

The system of equations is:

\left \{ {{83*A+42*C=874} \atop {102*A+67*C=1151}} \right.

The substitution method consists of isolating one of the two unknowns in one equation to replace it in the other equation. In this case you isolate C from the first equation:

83*A + 42*C= 874

42*C= 874 - 83*A

C=\frac{874 - 83*A}{42}

Substituting this expression in the second equation:

102*A + 67*\frac{874 - 83*A}{42}= 1151

and solving:

102*A + \frac{67}{42} *(874 - 83*A)= 1151

Multiply through by 42

42*102*A + 42*\frac{67}{42} *(874 - 83*A)= 42*1151

4,284*A + 67*(874-83*A)= 48,342

4,284*A + 58,558 - 5,561*A= 48,342

4,284*A - 5,561*A= 48,342 - 58,558

-1,277*A= -10,216

A=\frac{-10,216}{-1,277}

A= 8

Knowing that: C=\frac{874 - 83*A}{42} then:

C=\frac{874 - 83*8}{42}

C=\frac{874 - 664}{42}

C=\frac{210}{42}

C= 5

The price of an adult ticket is $8 and a child is $5. If 48 adults and 26 children attended the matinee on Sunday, then:

$8*48 adults + $5* 26 childen= $514

<u><em> If 48 adults and 26 children attended the matinee on Sunday, the theater raised $ 514 from ticket sales.</em></u>

I don't understand how to solve this pls help
Charra [1.4K]

the sine function is a many-to-one function and therefore has no inverse function.

However if the domain is restricted to -90° ≤ x ≤ 90°

Then the function is one-to-one for this domain

Thus, sin^{-1} x is defined as the angle such that - π/2 ≤ x ≤ π/2

5π/6 is therefore outwith the domain

Why can you multiply or divide both terms of a ratio by the same number without changing the value of the ratio
o-na [289]
The ratio is rational and by multiplying or dividing the numbers included in the ratio by the same number, it's just like taking a fraction and taking it out of simplest form, it doesn't change the value of the ratio or the fraction in simplest form, it just changes the numbers

X2: -1

Y1: 3

Y2: -1

2. Subtract X1 from X2 and Y1 from Y2

Y: -1-3=-4

X: -1-1=-2

3. Divide the X value by the Y value
