Answer:

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Children = $2

Students = $3

Adults = $4

Total sales = $522

Total people who attended = 177

Adults =a

Students = s= 2a

Children = c

c+s+a = 177 (1)

2c+3s+4a=522 (2)

Substitute s=2a into the equations

c + 2a + a = 177

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 3(2a) + 4a = 522

2c + 6a + 4a = 522

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

Multiply (3) by 2

2c + 6a = 354 (3b)

2c + 10a = 522

Subtract (3b) from (4)

10a - 6a = 522 - 354

4a = 168

Divide both sides by 4

a= 168/4

= 42

a= 42

s= 2a

= 2(42)

= 84

s= 84

Substitute the value of s and a into (1)

c+s+a = 177 (1)

c + 84 + 42 = 177

c + 126 = 177

c = 177 - 126

= 51

c=51

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

Point A is located at (-4,\ 9)(−4, 9) on the coordinate plane. Point B is located at (-4,\ -7)(−4, −7). ​What is the distance be
galben [10]

Answer:

AB = 16 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinate (-4, 9) and (-4, -7)

Using the formula for calculating the distance between two points

AB = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

AB =√(-7-9)²+(-4+4)²

AB = √(-16)²+0²

AB = √16²

AB = 16 units

Hence the distance between Point A and Point B is 16 units

2. Starting at a fixed time, each car entering an intersection is observed to see whether it turns left (L), right (R), or goes
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Natural numbers (integers greater than zero)

X = 3,  5,  4,  4,  3

Step-by-step explanation:

The least number of cars that can be observed in this experiment is 1, if the first car turns left. On the other hand, the experiment could go on forever if no car ever turns left, thus the highest number of cars approaches infinite.

The possible values of X are integers greater than zero, which are known as the Natural numbers.

If X = number of cars observed, simply count the number of letters in each outcome for the value of X:

Outcome = RRL, AARRL, AARL, RRAL, ARL

            X = 3,  5,  4,  4,  3

Ali will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of 70 and costs an additi
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: Ali would need to drive 350 miles for the two plans to cost the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by creating two equations using the information supplied in the question and then solving these simultaneously.

Let the cost be C.

Let the number of miles be M.

Let the initial payment be i.

Let the rate per mile driven be R.

Plan 1:

C = i+R×M

C = 70+0.60M ... equation 1

Plan 2:

C = i+R×M

C = 0+0.80M

C = 0.80M ...equation 2

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1:

0.80M = 70+0.60M

0.80-0.60M = 70

0.20M = 70

M = 70/0.20

M = 350 miles

The exponential function f<br> takes the value 10 when x=1 and 30 when x=2
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation: f(x) = x + 8

f(x) = 10

10 = x + 8

minus 8 from the both sides

10 - 8 = x

2 = x

x = 2
