The drama club was selling tickets

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lubov Fominskaja [6]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

108 student tickets, and 176 adult tickets  were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Adult ticket $8  Call the number of adult tickets sold "a"

Student ticket $5  Call the number of student tickets sold "s"

Since we are talking about TWO consecutive days of sold out seats, the total number of seats sold were 2* 142 = 284

Then we create two different equations with the information given:

a + s = 284

8 * a + 5 * s = 1948

we can solve for s in the first equation as follows: s = 284 - a

and use it in the second equation

8 a + 5 (284 - a) = 1948

8 a + 1420 - 5 a = 1948

combining

3 a = 528

a = 528/3

a = 176

we find the number of student tickets using this answer in the substitution equation we used:

s - 284 - 176 = 108

Therefore 108 student tickets, and 176 adult tickets  were sold.

What is the solutions to the equation w/2w-3=4/w
labwork [276]

Answer:

{2, 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

w/2w-3=4/w  is ambiguous.  Did you mean

   w            4

---------- = ------     ?  If so, please enclose "2w - 3" inside parentheses.

2w - 3       w

Cross multiplying, we get w² = 8w - 12.

Putting this into standard form, we get:

w² - 8w + 12 = 0, which factors into (w - 2)(w - 6) = 0.

The solutions are found by setting each factor = 0 separately and solving the resulting equations for w:  {2, 6}.

How do u do this?? What’s the answer???
V125BC [204]

Answer:

A. c = 0.31b

Step-by-step explanation:

$7.44 = 24 juice bottles

[Divide by 24 on both sides]

$0.31 = 1 juice bottle

The cost is equal to the amount per juice bottle times the number of juice bottles, so:

c = 0.31b

(A trick to use when you don't know the answer: If there are multiple answers with the same numbers but the decimal places are in different places, it is probably one of those answers.)
