A is aldult tickets
b is child tickets

b = 2/3 a

7a + 12b = 90
7a + 12 x 2/3 a = 90
7a + 8a = 90
15a = 90
a = 6; b = 4

3<br>Find the value of a <br>in the equation,(3+4√3)(2-a√3)=-18+2√3

ankoles [38]

Given:

The equation is:

$\left(3+4\sqrt{3}\right)\left(2-a\sqrt{3}\right)=-18+2\sqrt{3}$

To find:

The value of a.

Solution:

We have,

$\left(3+4\sqrt{3}\right)\left(2-a\sqrt{3}\right)=-18+2\sqrt{3}$

On simplification, we get

$(3)(2)+(4\sqrt{3})(2)+(3)(-a\sqrt{3})+(4\sqrt{3})(-a\sqrt{3})=-18+2\sqrt{3}$

$6+8\sqrt{3}-3a\sqrt{3}-4a(3)=-18+2\sqrt{3}$

$6+8\sqrt{3}-3a\sqrt{3}-12a=-18+2\sqrt{3}$

$(6-12a)+(8-3a)\sqrt{3}=-18+2\sqrt{3}$

On comparing both sides, we get

$6-12a=-18$

$-12a=-18-6$

$a=\dfrac{-24}{-12}$

$a=2$

And,

$8-3a=2$

$-3a=2-8$

$a=\dfrac{-6}{-3}$

$a=2$

Therefore, the value of a is 2.
