Answer:

Adult= $11

Children = $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent adult ticket and y represent children ticket

2x + 3y= 44.50........equation 1

3x + 6y= 78........equation 2

From equation 1

2x + 3y= 44.50

2x= 44.50-3y

x= 44.50-3y/2

Substitute 44.50-3y/2 for x in equation 2

3x+ 6y= 78

3(44.50-3y/2) + 6y= 78

66.75- 4.5y +6y= 78

66.75 + 1.5y= 78

1.5y= 78-66.75

1.5y= 11.25

y= 11.25/1.5

y = 7.5

Substitute 7.5 for y in equation 1

2x + 3y = 44.50

2x + 3(7.5)= 44.50

2x + 22.5= 44.50

2x = 44.50-22.5

2x= 22

x= 22/2

x= 11

Hence the price of adult ticket is $11 and the price of children ticket is $7.5

Answer:

Answer:

Adult= $11

Children = $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent adult ticket and y represent children ticket

2x + 3y= 44.50........equation 1

3x + 6y= 78........equation 2

From equation 1

2x + 3y= 44.50

2x= 44.50-3y

x= 44.50-3y/2

Substitute 44.50-3y/2 for x in equation 2

3x+ 6y= 78

3(44.50-3y/2) + 6y= 78

66.75- 4.5y +6y= 78

66.75 + 1.5y= 78

1.5y= 78-66.75

1.5y= 11.25

y= 11.25/1.5

y = 7.5

Substitute 7.5 for y in equation 1

2x + 3y = 44.50

2x + 3(7.5)= 44.50

2x + 22.5= 44.50

2x = 44.50-22.5

2x= 22

x= 22/2

x= 11

Hence the price of adult ticket is $11 and the price of children ticket is $7.5

Find the area of a slice of a 16 inch pizza that is cut into 8 slices
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

≈ 25 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for the area of a circle is:

A=πr²

A = (3.14)(8²)

Since the size of the pizza is 16 inches across, the radius is half of that, or 16÷2 = 8 inches.

A ≈ 201 in²

Since there 8 slices of pizza, you can take the total area and divide by 8:

201 ÷ 8 ≈ 25 in²

Calculate volume of hemisphere with radius 3.2 cm
Olin [163]

Answer:

V ≈ 68.63 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume (V) of a sphere is calculated as

V = \frac{4}{3}πr³

the volume of a hemisphere is half the volume of a sphere, so

V = \frac{1}{2} × \frac{4}{3} πr³ = \frac{2}{3} πr³ , then

V = \frac{2}{3} π × 3.2³

  = \frac{2}{3} π × 32.768

  ≈ 68.63 cm³ ( to 2 dec. places )

If angle YWZ = 17, what is angle WXY?
marusya05 [52]
We know that

step 1
if ∡YWZ=17°
then
∡XWZ=17°*2-----> 34°----> because triangle XWY and triangle YWZ are congruents

step 2
∡WXY=∡WZY-------> because triangle XWY and triangle YWZ are congruents
we know that 
<span>the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 degrees
</span>so
180°=∡XWZ+2*∡WXY---------> ∡WXY=[180-∡XWZ]/2
∡WXY=[180-34°]/2-------> ∡WXY=73°

the answer is
∡WXY=73°
