Answer:
- 280 student tickets
- 520 adult tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
You may recognize that you are given two relationships between two unknowns. You can write equations for that.
You are asked for numbers of adult tickets and of student tickets. It often works well to let the values you're asked for be represented by variables. We can choose "a" for the number of adult tickets, and "s" for the number of student tickets. Then the problem statement tells us the relationships ...
a + s = 800 . . . . . . 800 tickets were sold
12.50a + 7.50s = 8600 . . . . . . . revenue from sales was 8600
(You are supposed to know that the revenue from selling "a" adult tickets is found by multiplying the ticket price by the number of tickets: 12.50a.)
___
You can solve these two equations any number of ways. One way is to do it by <em>elimination</em>. We can multiply the first equation by 12.50 and subtract the second equation:
12.50(a +s) -(12.50a +7.50s) = 12.50(800) -(8600)
5s = 1400 . . . . simplify. (The "a" variable has been eliminated.)
s = 280 . . . . . . divide by 5
Then the number of adult tickets can be found from the first equation:
a + 280 = 800
a = 520
280 student tickets and 520 adult tickets were sold.
Your answer is negative 32.24.
The definition of similar triangles says that 2 triangles are similar if they have the same shape but different size. There are two criteria to check for this:
1) If all angles in one triangle are equal to the angles in another one, then the 2 are equal.
2) If the sides have the same proportions, then the 2 triangles are similar.
1) We have that all the angles of the 2 triangles have an equal angle in the other triangle. In specific, Q is matched to B, P to A and R to C. Hence, since corresponding angles are congruent, the two triangles are similar.
2) Here we are given information about the sides of the triangles, so we will check the second criterion. We form the ratio of the largest sides of each trangle and the shortest sides. 30/5=6. For the shortest sides, 18/3=6. Finally for the middle sides, 24/4=6. Hence, we have that the triangles are similar since the ratios are equal. (it doesn't matter whether we take the bigger or the smaller side as a numerator, as long as we are consistent).
