Answer:

  • 90 student tickets
  • 65 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

For many "mixture" problems, it is convenient to use a variable for the quantity of the highest contributor. Here, we can use 'a' to represent the number of adult tickets, because adult tickets cost the most. Then the number of student tickets is (a+25), and the total revenue is ...

  6a +3(a+25) = 660

  9a +75 = 660

  9a = 585

  a = 65

  (a+25) = 90

The drama class sold 90 student tickets and 65 adult tickets.

A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular plot of land adjacent to the north wall of his barn. no fencing is needed along the bar
jeyben [28]

Hi,

Let assume a the west side,

b the length of the north wall (i suppose the answer is smaller then the barn.

Cost of the fence= a*6+a*12+b*12=3000 $.

So 3a+2b=500==>b=(500-3a)/2

Area =a*b=a(500-3a)/2= 250a-3/2a²

Derivate the area ==> 250-3a=0

==> a=250/3 and b=(500-3*250/3)/2=125

Width=125 (feet)

Length=250/3=83.333 (feet)
