Answer: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let statements :

Let x be the number of tickets sold for an adult

Let y be the number of tickets sold for a child

Equations :

x + y = 280  OR  y = 280 - x

4x + 2y = 1320

Substitution (sub the 2 equations in together) :

4x + 2(280 - x) = 1320

4x + 560 - 2x = 1320

2x = 1320 - 560

x = 760/2

x = 380

x is the number of tickets sold for the adults. meaning that 380 adults went.

Find the # of children :

x + y = 380

we know that x = 380

380 + y = 380

y = 380 - 380

y = 0

Conclusion :

No children went because the movie was rated R. Only adults attended.

The figure below is a net for a rectangular prism. Side a = 21 inches, side b = 17 inches, and side c = 11 inches. What is the s
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The answer is 1,550

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find the area of the rectangle 1

Area = ab

=(21 in) (17in)

=357 sq in.

this will be the same for rectangle 3 = 357 sq. in.

next find the area of rectangle 2

area=ac

=(21 in) (11 in)

=231 sq in.

this will be the same for rectangle 4 = 231 sq. in.

next find the area of rectangle 5

area = bc

=(17 in) (11 in.)

=187 sq. in

this will be the same for rectangle 6 = 187 sq. in.

Next add all areas together

Total surface area = 2(ac) + 2(ab) + 2(bc)

= 2(231) sq in. + 2(357) sq in. + 2(187) sq. in

= 462 + 174+ 374

= 1550 sq. in

In rectangle MNPQ with side MN = 16 in, point L is the midpoint of PQ and m∠QLM = 45°. Find the perimeter of the rectangle.
Marina86 [1]
See the attached figure

we know that
MN=16 in-------------> PQ=MN
PQ=16 in
<span>L is the midpoint of PQ-----------> distance QL=</span><span>PQ/2
QL=8 in
if </span>m∠QLM = 45°
then 
MQ=QL
MQ=8 in

Perimeter=[MN]*2+[MQ]*2=16*2+8*2=48 in

the answer is 48 in
