We have 2 types of tickets, A tickets and B tickets.  The total number of tickets sold was 500, so an equation for this NUMBER of tickets is A + B = 500.  The MONEY equation is something different.  A tickets cost 10, so they are represented by 10A; B tickets cost 60, so they are represented by 60B.  The total dollar sales for A and B are 6000.  Our money equation for the sales is 10A + 60B = 6000.  Solve the first equation for A:  A = 500 - B.  Sub that value for A into the second equation to solve for B:  10(500-B) + 60B = 6000.  Distribute through the parenthesis to get 5000 - 10B + 60B = 6000.  Combine like terms to get 50B = 1000.  B = 20.  There were 20 type B tickets sold.  A = 500 - B, so A = 500 - 20 and A = 480.  There were 480 type A tickets sold.

What is the distance between 5,-6 and 5,6
ira [324]

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume those are coordinates.

The distance between 2 points is given by  √ (x2 − x1)^2 + (y2 − y1)^2.

Replacing the values, we get  √ (5 − 5)^2 + (6 − -6)^2 =  √0+144 = 12

USPshnik [31]
The answer is the sixth grade class.

In order to find the answer, you have to divide each grade's total by the number of hours it took them to make that money, which will give you the amount each class makes per hour. 

$170 / 55 = $3.09
$112 / 44 = $2.54
$192 / 66 = $2.91

No, the product is not valid. The number of columns of \mathbf S (five) should match the number of rows of \mathbf R (four).
