Answer: 96 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of students tickets that were sold.

For the last basketball game, 381 tickets were sold. This means that

x + y = 381

Adult tickets sold for $7, and student tickets sold for $3. If the ticket sales totaled 1,527, it means that

7x + 3y = 1527 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 381 - y into equation 1, it becomes

7(381 - y) + 3y = 1527

2667 - 7y + 3y = 1527

- 7y + 3y = 1527 - 2667

- 4y = - 1140

y = - 1140/- 4

y = 285

x = 381 - y = 381 - 285

x = 96

What is the surface area of a box if it is scaled up by a factor of 10
xenn [34]
If we are scaling up the surface area by a factor of 10 means that the two dimensions of area are each being increased by 10 times the original size. Therefore, the surface area is increased by a factor of 10 x 10, or by a factor of 100.

25/9 converted into a mixed number equals
blagie [28]
First figure out how many times 9 can go into 25 **do the highest amount of times it can go in-
<span><span>9x1=9 </span><span>9x2=18 </span><span>9x3=27 </span><span>9x4=<span>36
nine can go in 2 times because 3 times would be way to much
so you're mixed number would be 2
now to figure out you're numerator do 25-18=7
Now it would be 2 7/25
so you're mixed number,then the numerator,finally denomantor ALWAYS stays the same.
                *IF YOU'RE NUMERATOR AND DENOMANTOR CAN BE REDUCED THEN REDUCE</span></span></span>
