Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of child tickets sold.

Cost of x child tickets is x * 5.30 = 5.3x.

"three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold"

Number of adult tickets sold: 3x

Cost of 3x adult tickets is 3x * 8.40 = 25.2x

Cost of all tickets is 5.3x + 25.2x = 30.5x

Cost of all tickets is $1189.50

30.5x = 1189.5

x = 1189.5/30.5

x = 39

Answer: 39

Find the midpoint of the line segment that has endpoints at (10,8) (-3,-10)
dem82 [27]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

(3.5, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the midpoint formula to solve this problem:

(x_m, y_m) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Plug in the coordinates given:

(\frac{10-3}{2}, \frac{8-10}{2})

Simplify:

(\frac{7}{2}, \frac{-2}{2})

Therefore, the coordinates of the mid-point are:

(3.5, -1).

1. The numbers ______ and _____ are respectively the additive and multiplicative identities of rational numbers
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:  0 and 1, in that order

The numbers <u>   0   </u> and <u>   1   </u> are respectively the additive and multiplicative identities of rational numbers.

===========================================================

Explanation:

The additive identity is 0 because adding 0 to any number leads to the original number. For instance, 7+0 = 7. In general we can say x+0 = x or we could also say 0+x = x.

The multiplicative identity is 1 because multiplying 1 with anything leads to that original number. Example: 1*5 = 5 or 9*1 = 1. The general template is x*1 = x which is the same as saying 1*x = x.

These ideas not only apply to rational numbers, but to real numbers as well.

Find 2x2 − 2z4 + y2 − x2 + z4 if x = −4, y = 3, and z = 2 can you help me
Natali [406]
Alright, so plugging it in, we get 2(-4)^2=2(2)^4+3^2-(-4)^2+2^4. Use PEMDAS with parenthesis and exponents to then get (2)(16)+9-16+16. Multiplying 1 and 16,  we get 32+41-16+16=73
