Answer:

x = price of adult tickets = $7

y = price of students tickets = $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = price of adult tickets

y = price of students tickets

7x + 7y = 91 (1)

14x + 12y = 170 (2)

Multiply (1) by 2 to

14x + 14y = 182 (3)

14x + 12y = 170 (2)

Subtract (2) from (3) to eliminate x

14y - 12y = 182 - 170

2y = 12

y = 12/2

y = 6

Substitute y = 6 into (1)

7x + 7y = 91 (1)

7x + 7(6) = 91

7x + 42 = 91

7x = 91 - 42

7x = 49

x = 49/7

x = 7

x = price of adult tickets = $7

y = price of students tickets = $6

What is the length of the third side of the window frame below?
Tanya [424]

Answer:

15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest side of the right triangular window frame is 39 inches

The height is 36 inches

Let the base of the window frame be x inches

So according to Pythagoras theorem,

x² + 36² = 39²

x² = 39² - 36² = 225

x = \sqrt{225} = 15 inches

The third side of the window frame is therefore equal to 15 inches.
