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

What is midpoint of A(2, 3) and B(-2, 5)?
Elis [28]

Answer:

The midpoint of A and B is (0, 4).

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the midpoint formula, ((x₁ + x₂)/2 , (y₁ + y₂)/2)

First, solve for the x part.

(2 + (-2))/2

0/2

0

So the x-coordinate of the midpoint is 0.

Then, solve for the y part.

(3 + 5)/2

8/2

4

So the y-coordinate of the midpoint is 4.
