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.
The answer is 7/17.
Because we have 17 spins and it landed on three 7 times, so 7/17.
