325 adult tickets were sold

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "a" be the number of adult tickets sold

Let "s" be the number of student tickets sold

<em><u>Given that total 706 tickets were sold for the school play</u></em>

Therefore,

number of adult tickets sold + number of student tickets sold = 706

a + s = 706 --------- eqn 1

<em><u>There were 56 more student tickets sold than adult tickets</u></em>

Number of student tickets sold = 56 + number of adult tickets sold

s = 56 + a ------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>

a + 56 + a = 706

2a + 56 = 706

2a = 706 - 56

2a = 650

a = 325

Thus 325 adult tickets were sold

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Option C. Yes; y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form k=\frac{y}{x} or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

so

In this problem

For x=0, y=0

That means ----> the line passes through the origin

<em>Find the value of k</em>

For x=2, y=4

k=\frac{y}{x} ----> k=\frac{4}{2}=2

For x=4, y=8

k=\frac{y}{x} ----> k=\frac{8}{4}=2

The values of k are equal

therefore

The table represent a direct variation

The equation is equal to

y=2x

If two cards are drawn out of a deck WITH replacement, what's the probability that you draw a red card and then an Ace? ** Remem
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of drawing a red card is 1/2, since half of the cards in a deck are red. The probability of drawing an ace from a deck is 1/13, since there is an equal chance to pick any of the 13 numbers.

P(red card and ace)= P(red card)*P(ace)=1/2 * 1/13=1/26
