Answer:

Number of student tickets = 325

Number of adult tickets = 404

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of student tickets

y be the number of adult tickets

According to given statement;

x+y=729     Eqn 1

3x+5y=2995    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3

3(x+y=729)

3x+3y=2187    Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(3x+5y)-(3x+3y)=2995-2187

3x+5y-3x-3y=808

2y=808

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{808}{2}\\y=404

Putting y=404 in Eqn 1

x+404=729

x=729-404

x=325

Hence,

Number of student tickets = 325

Number of adult tickets = 404

<h3>Total distance</h3>

First distance= 550 miles (given)

Second distance=483 miles (given)

Now let find the third distance

Let x represent the third distance

Hence:

x/sin79 = 550/sin55

x= 659.1

Now let calculate the total distance

Total distance=550+483+659.1

Total distance= 1692.1

Total distance= 1692 miles (rounded)

Therefore the correct option is d.

<span>Saul works at the local car dealership.
=> He makes 2% commission on all sales.
=> He sells a car worth $20,000.
Question: What is his commission
=> We need to get the 2% value of 20 000 dollars for his commission. To do that simply convert 2% into decimal value then multiply it with 20 000 dollars.
=> 2% / 100% = 0.02
=> 20 000 * .02 = 400 dollars is his commission.</span>

the length of a rectangle is 2 times in width if the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 in find its length and width​
Basile [38]

Answer:

Length=12 inches Width=6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

X can stand for the width. 2x can stand for the length since it is twice the width. The perimeter would then equal 6x. 6x is equal to 36. Divide by 6 to isolate x. X equals 6 inches. So twice the width would be 12 inches.
