As we can see here any negative number subtracting another negative number leads to adding. So we would have -6+2 which would be -4. So therefore your answer is -4

A movie theater has a seating capacity of 329. The theater charges $5.00 for children, $7.00 for students, and $12.00 of adults.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

170 children

74 students

85 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

C = Children; S = Students; A = Adults

For the capacity, we have:

C + S + A = 329

For the tickets sold, we have:

5C + 7S + 12A = 2388

Half as many as adults are children implies that:

A = \frac{C}{2}

Required

Solve for A, C and S

The equations to solve are:

C + S + A = 329 -- (1)

5C + 7S + 12A = 2388 -- (2)

A = \frac{C}{2} -- (3)

Make C the subject in (3)

C = 2A

Substitute C = 2A in (1) and (2)

C + S + A = 329 -- (1)

2A + S + A = 329

3A + S = 329

Make S the subject

S = 329 - 3A

5C + 7S + 12A = 2388 -- (2)

5*2A + 7S + 12A = 2388

10A + 7S + 12A = 2388

7S + 22A = 2388

Substitute S = 329 - 3A

7(329 - 3A) + 22A = 2388

2303 - 21A + 22A = 2388

2303 +A = 2388

Solve for A

A = 2388 - 2303

A = 85

Recall that: C = 2A

C = 2 * 85

C = 170

Recall that: S = 329 - 3A

S = 329 - 3 * 85

S = 329 - 255

S = 74

Hence, the result is:

C = 170

S = 74

A = 85

Answer:

  • Solution of equation ( q ) = <u>1</u><u>6</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given an equation that is <u>3 </u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>q </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>7</u><u> </u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>7</u><u> </u>and we have asked to solve this equation that means to find the value of <u> </u><u>q</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

<u>Solution : -</u>

\quad \: \longmapsto \:  3(q - 7) = 27

<u>Step </u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>:</u> Solving parenthesis :

\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q - 21 = 27

<u>Step </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>:</u> Adding 21 on both sides :

\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q -  \cancel{ 21} +  \cancel{21} = 27  +  21

On further calculations we get :

\quad \: \longmapsto \:3q = 48

<u>Step </u><u>3 </u><u>:</u> Dividing by 3 from both sides :

\quad \: \longmapsto \: \frac{ \cancel{3}q}{ \cancel{3}}  =  \cancel {\frac{48}{3} }

On further calculations we get :

\quad \: \longmapsto \:   \pink{\boxed{\frak{q = 16}}}

  • <u>Therefore</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>solution</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>q </u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>1</u><u>6</u><u> </u><u>.</u>

<u>Verifying</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u> </u><u>-</u>

Now we are very our answer by substituting value of q in the given equation . So ,

  • 3 ( q - 7 ) = 27

  • 3 ( 16 - 7 ) = 27

  • 3 ( 9 ) = 27

  • 27 = 27

  • L.H.S = R.H.S

  • Hence, Verified.

<u>Therefore</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>our </u><u>solution</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>correct</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
