Answer:

88 adult tickets and 77 student tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult tickets sold be 8x and the number of student tickets sold be 7x.

adult tickets + student tickets = 165 tickets

8x + 7x = 165

15x = 165

x = 165 ÷ 15

  = 11

No. of adult tickets sold (8x) = 11 × 8

                                               = 88

No. of student tickets sold (7x) = 11 × 7

                                                   = 77

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first divide 165 and 15 ( 8 + 7 )

165 / 15 = 11 tickets per 1 part of the ratio (if that makes sense)

then just multiply 11 times both parts of the ratio

8 x 11 = 88 adult tickets

7 x 11 = 77 student tickets

check your answer by add the tickets together if you get 165 your answer was correct

88 + 77  = 165

hope this helps <3

The area of a rectangle is length*width.

The length of this 3x and the width is 2x-3. This means that, to find the area, you need to multiply 3x and 2x-3.

Start by writing out this equation:
A=l*w

Then, plug in your given values:
A= 3x*2x-3 (you can also write it as A= 3*x*2*x-3)

Then, following the order of operations, you start by multiplying. This makes your equation become A = 6x^2 -3. (^2 means squared). It turns into this because 3 * 2 is 6 and x * x is x^2 and you still haven’t used the 3 yet.

After this, there is nothing more that you can do to simplify the equation. Therefore, the area is 6x^2 - 3.

I hope this helped!
