Answer:
The price of 1 adult ticket is 12 dollars, and the price of a ticket for one student is 7 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations for the two days that the play was shown.
Let x = the price of an adult ticket
Let y = the price of a student ticket
For the first day:
<h3>9x+8y=164</h3>
For the second day:
<h3>2x+7y=73</h3>
Now, we can solve using the elimination method. Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 9. Then swap the order of the equations.
<h3>18x+63y= 657</h3><h3>-</h3><h3>18x+16y= 328</h3><h3>0x+ 47y= 329</h3><h3>divide both sides by 47</h3><h3>y = 7</h3><h3>Plug in 7 for y for the 2nd equation</h3><h3>2x+7(7)=73</h3><h3>2x+49=73</h3><h3>subtract 49 from both sides</h3><h3>2x= 24</h3><h3>divide both sides by 2</h3><h3>x = 12 </h3><h3>Check:</h3><h3>2(12)+7(7)=73</h3><h3>24+49= 73!</h3>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface of the triangle count formula
A = b*h*1/2
A - area
b - base
c - height
The 1st triangle
A₁ = b₁*h = 6in * 8in *1/2= 24in²
The 2nd triangle
A₂ b₂*h = 10in * 8in*1/2 = 40in²
The total area of the two triangles is 24in² + 40in² = 64 square inches
Minus 9 from both sides
7x = 49
X = 7
X is 15because 15-10=5
x= 3*5
x=15
