Before you use the quadratic formula, you have to make sure the equation itself is a quadratic and that a and b are not 0.
Answer:
120; 643 units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter: Add all the sides, so 120 units
_________________________________
Area: First multiply 19 by 24 for the first shape within this other shape, so That equals 456 units squared. Since we know that one whole side is 36 we can subtract 19 from it to get the lower side of the smaller shape and then multiply that by 11. So the smaller side ends up being 17. So 17 times 11 equals: 187 units squared. Then just add the areas together 187+456=643 units squared.

Step-by-step explanation:
This sort of problem is easily solved by defining a variable to be the quantity of the higher-value contributor. Here, we can let x represent the number of adult tickets. Then total revenue is ...
6.50x +3.50(548-x) = 2881
3x +1918 = 2881 . . . . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
3x = 963 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1918
x = 321 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
548-x = 548 -321 = 227 . . . . . .number of child tickets
