Answer:

Two adult tickets and 5 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a=adult tickets   Let s=student tickets

You know that each adult ticket is $9.10 and each student ticket cost $7.75. At the end, it cost $56.95 for both students and adults so the first equation should be 9.10a+7.75s=56.95. To get the second equation, you know that Mrs. Williams purchased 7 tickets in total that were both students and adults. Therefore, the second equation should be a+s=7. The two equations are 9.10a+7.75s=56.95

a+s=7.

Now, use substitution to solve this. I will isolate s from this equation so the new equation should be s=-a+7. Plug in this equation to the other equation, it will look like this 9.10a+7.75(-a+7)=56.95. Simplify this to get 9.10a-7.75a+54.25=56.95. Simplify this again and the equation will become 1.35a=2.70. Then divide 1.35 by each side to get a=2. This Mrs. Williams bought two adult tickets. Plug in 2 into a+s=7, it will look like this (2)+s=7. Simplify this and get s=5. This means Mrs. Williams bought five adult tickets. Therefore she bought 2 adult tickets and 5 student tickets.

Hope this helps

Can you help me find all the seventh roots of unity? what do they look like graphed?
alex41 [277]

Answer:

There are seven seventh roots of unity, e2πki7 , all on the unit circle, r=1 above.

The first one is at θ=2π7=360∘7=5137 ∘ , and there are others at 4π7,6π7,8π7,10π7,12π7 and of course at 0 radians, i.e. unity itself.

How to find?

There are 4 fourth roots of unity and they are 1, i,−1 and−i

Each of the roots of unity can be found by changing the value of k k k in the expression e 2 k π i / n e^{2k\pi i/n} e2kπi/n. By Euler's formula, e 2 π i = cos ⁡ ( 2 π ) + i sin ⁡ ( 2 π ) = 1.

What is the least prime number greater than 50?
uysha [10]
A prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself
For example, the number 7 has two factors: 1,7 This makes 7 a prime number
Since the number has to be greater than 50, we can go to the next whole number; 51
51 has four factors, 1,3,17,51 This is not our prime number
52 is even so obviously it's not prime because you can divide by two
53 has only two factors; 1,53 This means that its prime and the answer is 53 :)
