An amusement park sells children and adult tickets at a ratio of 8 to 1. On Saturday they sold 147 more child tickets then adult
tickets. How many tickets did the amusement park sell on Saturday?
1 answer:
let the number of adult tickets be x and the number of children tickets be y
x:y = 8:1
On Saturday, x = 147 + y
(147+y):y = 8:1

[tex] \frac{147}{y} + [tex] \frac{y}{y} = 8 + 1
[tex] \frac{147}{y} = 8
147 = 8y
∴y = 88
x = 147 + 88
∴ x = 235
so the no of tickets sold on saturday = 235 + 88 = 323

The value of y would be 5.
11% = 11/100
2/9 + 11/100 + 1/10 = 389/900
389/900 x 350 = 151.3
350 - 151.3 = 198.7
Volume = wlh=x^3
surface area= 6x^2
x^3=6x^2
Divide by ^2 on both sides
x=6
Answer:
