<h3>Answer:</h3>

equations

  • 20a +10c = 15000
  • c = 3a

solution

  • 300 adult
  • 900 children's
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let "a" and "c" represent the numbers of adult and children's tickets sold, respectively. The problem statement tells us two relationships between these values:

... 20a +10c = 15000 . . . . . . total revenue from ticket sales

... c = 3a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . relationship between numbers of tickets sold

Using the expression for c, we can substitute into the first equation to get ...

... 20a +10(3a) = 15000

... 50a = 15000

... a = 15000/50 = 300 . . . . . adult tickets sold

... c = 3·300 = 900 . . . . . children's tickets sold

the ratio of the length of an airplane wing to its width is 7 to 1. find the length of wing is 26.7 meters, how wide must it be?
maw [93]
If the ratio is 7 to 1, the width of the wing must be 1/7 of the length. So, we just divide 26.7 by 7 to get 3.81 meters.

L=U²A divided by (A+B)² make A the subject of formular​
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

A =  [- 2Bl + U^2 +/- √((2BL - U^2)^2 - 4B^2L^2) ] / 2L

Step-by-step explanation:

L = U^2A  / (A + B)^2

U^2 A = L(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)

U^2 A = LA^2 + 2ABL + B^2L

LA^2 + 2ABL - U^2A + B^2 L = 0

LA^2 + (2BL - U^2)A + B^2L = 0

Using the quadratic formula

A =  [- (2BL - U^2) +/- √[(2BL - U^2)^2 - 4*L*B^2L] / 2L

A =  [- 2BL + U^2 +/- √[(2BL - U^2)^2 - 4B^2L^2) ] / 2L
