Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. Advance tickets cost $35 and same-day tickets $30 c

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The number of same-day tickets sold is 15

The number of advance ticket sold is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost of each Advance ticket = $35

The cost of each same-day ticket = $30

The total cost of the tickets sold = $1150

The total number of tickets sold = 35

Let The number of advance ticket sold = a

And The number of same-day ticket sold = s

Now, According to question

The total number of tickets sold =The number of advance ticket sold + The number of same-day ticket sold

I.e a + s = 35 .....A

The total number of tickets sold = The cost of each Advance ticket × The number of advance ticket sold + The cost of each same-day ticket × The number of same-day ticket sold

I.e $35 a + $30 s = $1150

or, 35 a + 30 s = 1150 .......B

Now, solving eq A and B

35 × ( a + s) - ( 35 a + 30 s ) = 35 × 35 - 1150

or, ( 35 a - 35 a ) + ( 35 s - 30 s ) = 1225 - 1150

or, 0 + 5 s = 75

∴ s = $\frac{75}{5}$

I.e s = 15

So, The number of same-day tickets sold = s = 15

Put the value of s in Eq A

So, a + 15 = 35

∴ a = 35 - 15

I.e a = 20

So, The number of advance ticket sold = a = 20

Hence The number of same-day tickets sold is 15

And The number of advance ticket sold is 20 Answer

The expression sin 57° is equal to

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

$cos(33^{\circ})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$sin(57^{\circ})$

Required

Determine an equivalent expression

In trigonometry:

$sin(\theta)= cos(90^{\circ} - \theta)$

In $sin(57^{\circ})$

$\theta=57^{\circ}$

Substitute $57^{\circ}$ for $\theta$

in $sin(\theta)= cos(90^{\circ} - \theta)$

$sin(57^{\circ})= cos(90^{\circ} - 57^{\circ})$

$sin(57^{\circ})= cos(33^{\circ})$

Hence, the equivalent expression is: $cos(33^{\circ})$

If the measure of a tangent-chord angle is 74, then what is the measure of the intercepted arc inside the angle

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The measure of the intercepted arc is twice the measure of the tangent-chord angle:
2×74° = 148°

The measure of the intercepted arc is 148°.

When you subtract one negative integer from another, will your answer be greater than or less than the integer you started with?

SVEN [57.7K]

So say for example u have -7 - (-5), think of subtracting integers as adding the opposite, so ur adding the opposite of -5, the opposite of -5 is 5, so ur adding -7 and 5= -2
another one: -15 - (-18)
again, adding the opposite. -15 plus positive 18= 3
