Answer:

53

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children tickets sold and y be the number of adult tickets sold. Then

x+y=128.

The cost of x children tickets is $5.10x and the cost of y adult tickets is $9.70y, so

5.10x+9.70y =896.60.

From the first equation,

x=128-y,

then

5.10(128-y)+9.70y=896.60,\\ \\652.80-5.10y+9.70y=896.60,\\ \\4.60y=243.8,\\ \\y=53.

53 adult tickets were sold.

Multiply top and bottom by sin x.

1 / [cos x + (sin²x / cos x)]

Multiply top and bottom by cos x.

cos x / (cos²x + sin²x)
