Answer:
- s + a = 250
- 3s + 5a = 1050
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s and a represent the numbers of student and adult tickets sold. The system of equations that can be written from the given information is ...
s + a = 250 . . . . . . total of tickets sold
3s +5a = 1050 . . . dollar value of tickets sold
_____
The solution is (s, a) = (100, 150). 100 student tickets and 150 adult tickets were sold.

Answer:
<em>{ - 2 , 8 } </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
( x² - 6x ) = 2
4² = ( x² - 6x )
x² - 6x - 16 = 0
- 6 = - 8 + 2
- 16 = - 8 * 2
( x - 8 )( x + 2 ) = 0 ⇒
= - 2 ,
= 8
<em>{ - 2 , 8 }</em>
Answer:
length: 16 m; width: 13 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Write each of the statements as an equation. You know that the formula for the perimeter is ...
P = 2(L +W)
so one of your equations is this one with the value of P filled in:
• 2L + 2W = 58
The other equation expresses the relation between L and W:
• L = W +3 . . . . . . . . the length is 3 meters greater than the width
There are many ways to solve such a system of equations. Since you have an expression for L, it is convenient to substitute that into the first equation to get ...
2(W+3) +2W = 58
4W +6 = 58 . . . . . . . simplify
4W = 52 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6
W = 13 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4
We can use the expression for L to find its value:
L = 13 +3 = 16
The length is 16 meters; the width is 13 meters.
The third one is the correct answer
