Answer:

The number of children's tickets sold was 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of children's tickets sold

y ----> the number of adult's tickets sold

we know that

6.10x+9.40y=1,179.90 ----> equation A

y=4x ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A

6.10x+9.40(4x)=1,179.90

solve for x

6.10x+37.6x=1,179.90

43.7x=1,179.90

x=27

therefore

The number of children's tickets sold was 27

The Bobcats had a win-loss record of 41-23 before their star player, Melissa, got injured. Melissa didn’t play in any more games
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The win percentage decreased by 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to fin the total games played right before Melissa got Injured

41+23=64

Then you need to find the win percentage by making a fraction of wins over total games

wins/total games = 41/64 = 64%

Then you need to find the number of games played after Melissa got injured

54-41 = 13 wins

34-23 = 11 losses

13+11 = 24 total games played without Melissa

You find that win percentage similarly to the first time

wins/total games = 13/24 = 54%

Then you find the difference in the percentages and there you have it!!

64% - 54% = 10%

It decreased as well therefore the answer is...

It decreased by 10%

Point J is on line segment IK. Given JK = 2x – 1, IK = 3x + 2,
Serhud [2]

Answer:

JK=7

Step-by-step explanation:

From the line segment, since J is on it ,it means the line segment is

represented as I J K

from this illustration, we can say that the longest part of the line segment is from I to K

this means that, IJ +JK =IK

making JK the subject,

JK= IK - IJ

but from the question, JK=2x-1 , IK=3x+2 and IJ=3x-5

substituting them in the expression,

2x-1 =3x+2 -(3x-5)

solving for x

2x-1 =3x+2-3x+5

2x-1 =0+7

2x-1 =7

2x=1+7

2x=8

dividing through by 2

2x/2 =8/2

x=4

but the question says we should find the numerical value for JK

but from the line segment,

JK=2x-1

but now we know the value of x to be 2

so substituting it in the formula

JK= 2(4)-1

JK=8-1

JK=7

therefore, the numerical value for JK is 7
