Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of one adult ticket.

Let y represent the price of one student ticket.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 24 adult tickets and 3 student tickets for a total of $223.00. This means that

24x + 3y = 223 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The school took in $152 on the second day by selling 7 adult tickets and 6 student tickets. This means that

7x + 6y = 152 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

144x + 18y = 1338

21x + 18y = 456

Subtracting, it becomes

123x = 882

x = 882/123

x = 7.17

Substituting x = 7.17 into equation 2, it becomes

7 × 7.17 + 6y = 152

50.19 + 6y = 152

6y = 152 - 50.19 = 101.81

y = 101.81/6 = 16.97

A bird flies from the bottom of a canyon that is 71 4/5 feet below sea level to a nest that is 875 7/10 feet above sea level. Wh
Rainbow [258]

The difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest is 947 1/2 feet

<h3>What is the difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Nest = 71 4/5 feet above the seal level

Bottom of canyon = 875 7/10 below sea level

Below sea level means negative

So, we have:

Nest = 71 4/5 feet

Bottom of canyon = -875 7/10

The difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest is calculated as

Difference = |Nest - Bottom of canyon|

This gives

Difference = |71 4/5 - (-875 7/10)|

Evaluate the difference

Difference = |947 1/2|

Remove the absolute bracket

Difference = 947 1/2

Hence, the difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest is 947 1/2 feet
