Answer:
-15 plus or minus the square root of 65 all over 4 (All over means fraction)
Area = ab Sin O
= (63)(76) Sin 63 degrees
= 4266 square cm.
I think you can find it graphically by points through a table you create like:
let x = 0, and find the value of y
for example for the first equation when we let x = 0 you find y = 6 and be in the form of (0,6) then draw them or you can let x = -2 or -3 , etc as you like
to be more accurate you can find 3 pionts and start graphing them
these two equations are straight lines and they will intersect in a point
You can work these in your head if you consider the revenue generated by the least contributor (children's tickets) and the difference in revenue between that and the larger contributor ($2.00 -1.50 = 0.50).
If all were children's tickets, the revenue would be 500*$1.50 = $750.00. The actual revenue exceeded that amount by $862.50 -750.00 = 112.50. This difference in revenue is made up by the sale of $112.50/$0.50 = 225 adult tickets. Then the number of children's tickets is 500 -225 = 275.
225 adult tickets were sold
275 children's tickets were sold.
_____
If you need an equation, you can write an equation using a variable for the number of adult tickets sold (the largest contributor).
.. (500 -a)*1.50 +a*2.00 = 862.50
.. 0.50a = (862.50 -750.00) . . . . . does this look familiar, yet?
.. a = 112.50/0.50 = 225
