Answer:

55 adult tickets were sold on Friday.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear system will be used to model the system.

Let c be the number of child tickets and a be the number of adult tickets

Then according to given statements

a+c = 133\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\9.50a+5.20c = 928.10\ \ \ Eqn\ 2

From equation 1

a = 133-c

Putting this in equation 2

9.50(133-c)+5.20c = 928.10\\1263.5-9.50c+5.20c=928.10\\1263.5-4.3c = 928.10\\-4.3c = 928.10-1263.5\\-4.3c=-335.4\\\frac{-4.3c}{-4.3} = \frac{-335.4}{-4.3}\\c = 78

Putting c = 78 in equation 1

a+78 = 133\\a = 133-78\\a = 55

Hence,

55 adult tickets were sold on Friday.

Working simultaneously, four fudge machines complete a big order in 32 hours. All the machines at the fudge factory work at the
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the rate of the machines 1/x, because every time they complete an order, it takes them x hours. To find x, we have to add the the rates of the individual machines, which would equal the rate of the machines working together. We know that there are four machines working together at the same rate, and it took them 32 hours.

So:

1/x + 1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/32

1/4x = 1/32

4x = 32

x = 8

Thus, the rate of the machines is 1/8.

Now we have to find the time of the order with only half of the machines working together. This time, we don't know the combined rate, so I'll substitute it for y.

1/8 + 1/8 = 1/y

1/4 = 1/y

y = 4

The time taken to complete it is 4 hours.

The following picture is a square pyramid where DE=8 cm and m∠ADE=60°.
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

131 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

formula for surface area of pyramid is

S = (1/3)Bh

but the base ia a square, so B = x^{2}

S = (1/3)x^{2} h

the pic shows h = 8

but we don't know x

do SohCahToa

sin60 = x/8

x = 8sin60

x = 6.92820323 or 7

plug in numbers

S = (1/3)7^{2}8

S = 392/3

S = 130.6666667 or 131 cm
