Answer:

21 children's tickets were sold and 22 adult's tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where c is the number of children's tickets sold and a is the number of adult's tickets sold:

10c + 11a = 452

c + a = 43

Solve by elimination by multiplying the bottom equation by -10:

10c + 11a = 452

-10c - 10a = -430

Add them together and solve for a:

-a = -22

a = 22

So, 22 adult's tickets were sold. Plug this into one of the equations and solve for c:

c + a = 43

c + 22 = 43

c = 21

So, 21 children's tickets were sold and 22 adult's tickets were sold

A table saw is on clearance for 20% off. If the sale price of the table saw is $380, what was the original price? Justify your s
Nikolay [14]

20% off means it is selling for 80% of the original price ( 100% - 20% =80%)

Divide the sale price by 80% as a decimal:

380/0.80 = 475

The original price was $475

Justify:

Multiply the original price by 20% and subtract:

475 x 0.20 = 95

475-95 = $380 which is the sale price.

A man on the fifth floor of a building shouts down to a person on the street. If the angle of elevation from the street to the m
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: 57 ft

Step-by-step explanation: Because drawing it up, we can make a right angled triangle with the right angle between the height of the man in the building and the distance out from the building of the man in the street, and the 35 degrees between the line connecting the man in the street with the man in the building, and the line out from the building of the man in the street. Then, tan of the 35 degree angle is = to opposite (40ft)/adjacent (to solve for). By cross multiplication, the A or adjacent (dist out from the building) = 40/0.7 (0.7 = tan of 35 degrees) so the answer is 57 ft.
