#1 
Lets x = number of adult tickets
Lets y = number of children tickets

equation 1: 8x + 4y = 5040
equation 2: x + y = 680

solve them by using substitution
 x + y = 680 
 x = 680 - y

substitute  x = 680 - y into  8x + 4y = 5040

8(680 - y) + 4y = 5040
5440 - 8y + 4y = 5040
-4y = 5040 - 5440
-4y = -400
   y = 100

x = 680 - y
x = 680 - 100
x = 580

Answer:

There were 580 adults and 100 children at the last Miller's home basketball game.

#2
Similar to the #1

Lets x is the number of people riding school bus
Lets y is the number of people riding luxury charter bus

equation 1: x + y = 65
equation 2: 8x + 15y = 611

Building a is 271 meters taller than building
kvv77 [185]

Let a and b represent the heights of the corresponding buildings (in meters).

... a = b +271 . . . . . . . a is 271 meters taller than b

... 2b -a = 211 . . . . . . if a is subtracted from twice b, the result is 211

Use the expression for a in the first equation to substitute for a in the second.

... 2b - (b+271) = 211

... b = 482 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify and add 271

... a = b +271 = 753

Building a is 753 meters tall; building b is 482 meters tall.

A game increased in price by 1/2 . After the increase it was priced at £27. What was the original price of the game? (Hegarty Ma
lukranit [14]

Answer:

£18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of the game

Increase in price = 1/2

New price = £27

x + 1/2x = £27

2x+x/2 = 27

3/2x = 27

x = 27 ÷ 3/2

= 27 × 2/3

= 54 / 3

x = £18

Therefore, the original price of the game is £18

Which terms could be used as the last term of the expression below to create a polynomial written in standard form? Check all th
kogti [31]
A polynomial is said to be in standard form if it is written in the order of degree from highest to lowest from left to right.

The degree of a term of a polynomial is the exponent of the variable or the sum of the exponents of the variables of that term of the polynomial.

Thus, given the expression
-5x^2y^4 + 9x^3y^3+\_\_\_

-5x^2y^4 has a degree of 6, and
9x^3y^3 has a degree of 6.

Thus, the exponent of the variable or the sum of the exponents of the variables of the next term of the polynomial must be less than or equal to 6 for the polynomal to be said to be in standars form.

Therefore, the <span>terms that could be used as the last term of the given expression to create a polynomial written in standard form are
x^5, \\  \\ &#10;y^5, \\  \\ &#10;6x^4y, \ and \\  \\ &#10;-xy^5</span>
