Answer:

52 adults and 42 children attended the concert

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total attendees=94 people

Adults tickets=$2.5

Children tickets=$1.75

Total receipts=$203.5

Let adults=a

Children=c

a+c=94 (1)

2.5a + 1.75c=203.5 (2)

From (1)

a+c=94

a=94-c

Substitute a=94-c into (2)

2.5a + 1.75c=203.5

2.5(94-c) + 1.75c=203.5

235-2.5c+1.75c=203.5

-0.75c=203.5-235

-0.75c=-31.5

Divide both sides by -0.75

-0.75c/-0.75=-31.5/-0.75

c=42

Substitute c=42 into (1)

a+c=94

a+42=94

a=94-42

=52

a=52

Therefore,

52 adults and 42 children attended the concert

Which of the following expressions is NOT equivalent to (x − 6)(x − 3)?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

B. x(x) + (−6)(−3)

NOT equivalent  to (x − 6)(x − 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x − 6)(x − 3)

= x^2 - 3x - 6x + 18

= x^2 - 9x + 18

A. (6 − x)(3 − x)

= 18 - 6x - 3x + x^2

= 18 - 9x + x^2

= x^2  - 9x + 18  ---->equivalent  to (x − 6)(x − 3)

B. x(x) + (−6)(−3)  = x^2 + 18   ----> NOT equivalent  to (x − 6)(x − 3)

C. x2 − 3x − 6x + 18   = x^2 - 9x + 18  --> equivalent  to (x − 6)(x − 3)

D. x(x − 6) − 3(x − 6)

= x^2 - 6x - 3x + 18

= x^2  - 9x + 18  ---->equivalent  to (x − 6)(x − 3)

This year, a small business had a total revenue of $ 62 , 100. If this is 35 % more than their total revenue from the previous y
Olegator [25]

Answer:

$46000

Step-by-step explanation:

if x represents the previous years revenue, and they made 35% more than x, we need to find what 35% of x is and then add it to x to get the new total, so the equation becomes:

x + .35x = 62100

1.35x = 62100

x = 46000
