Hi! Welcome to Brainly! Let's solve this word problem together below! :)

Let's write this as a system of equations.

8a+4s=880

a= s+20

Let's plug our a value into the first equation.

8(s+20)+4s=880

8s+160+4s=880

We combine like terms.

12s+160=880

We subtract 160 from both sides.

12s=720

We divide both sides by 12

s=60

Now, we plug this value into the second equation.

a= 60+20

a= 80

Therefore, 80 adult tickets were sold.

I hope this helps! Have a fabulous time here at Brainly! :)

What is the value of m so that the two expressions are equivalent?
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since m is with x, you don't need to care about y

We would get 2x - 6x + 4x = mx

0x = mx

Choose the graph that represents the following system of inequalities: y ≤ −3x + 1 y ≤ 1 over 2x + 3 In each graph, the area for
Vanyuwa [196]

The graph that represents the inequality has been shown in the attachment.

<h3>How to solve for the graph</h3>

We have these equations

y ≤ −3x + 1

y ≤ x + 3

We remove the inequality sign from both of these equations

y = −3x + 1

y = x + 3

−3x + 1  = x + 3

such that

x = -0.5

we use this value for x in any of the equations

x + 3 = -0.5 + 3

= 2.5

the point of intersection is at 2.5, -0.5

we test for the origin. 0,0

3x + 1

= 3*0 + 1

= 1

for  x + 3

0+3 = 3

This is 0≤1 and 0≤3

Hence the graph should be shaded to the origin.
