Answer:

-6.20x-6.20y=-948.6

add this to equation 2

6.20x-6.20x +9.30y-6.20y=1125.30-948.60

3.10y= 176.70

/3.10

y=176.70/3.10

y = 57 number of adult tickets

153-57=96 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

child admission is $6.20 : x numbers

adult admission is $9.30 : y numbers

153 tickets were sold  

sales of $1125.30 .  

x+y = 153.........................1

6.20x+9.30y= 1125.30..............2

Helga [31]
Yes, there are many possible answers. An equation that can model your situation is:
4a+4b=75, with a being the amount of adult tickets sold, and b being the amount of children’s tickets sold.
Because both tickets cost 4 dollars, you would multiply the amount of tickets sold, by the price (in dollars) of the ticket.
So, you can find possible answers by substituting the amount of adult tickets sold. Say, 4 adults bought tickets. You could then substitute a for 4. So the equation would look like this.
4(4)+4b=75
16 + 4b = 75
4b = 75 - 16
4b = 59
Divide each side by four
B = 14.75

The reason you got a decimal number is because 75 cannot be divided by 4 evenly. So, in this context, you could say that 15 children bought tickets. One child had an issue, and Lisa gave them a 25% discount. This would explain why there are only 75 dollars worth in tickets. I hope I helped, this is my first question I have ever answered so I’m not entirely sure if this was helpful or not. Hope you figure this out!

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

a = 9.849

b = 20.25

c = 491.03

Step-by-step explanation:

By using Pythagoras theorem in the right triangle BDC,

(Hypotenuse)² = (Leg 1)² + (Leg 2)²

BC² = BD² + DC²

a² = 9² + 4²

a = \sqrt{(81+16)}

a = \sqrt{97}

a = 9.8489

a ≈ 9.849 units

By mean proportional theorem,

\frac{\text{DC}}{\text{BD}}=\frac{\text{BD}}{\text{AD}}

AD × DC = BD²

b × 4 = 9²

b = \frac{81}{4}

b = 20.25 units

BY Pythagoras theorem in ΔADB,

AB² = AD² + BD²

c² = b² + 9²

c² = (20.25)² + 9²

c² = 410.0625 + 81

c = 491.0625

c = 491. 063 units
