Answer:

a + c = 150

7.75a + 10.25b = 1470

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

Let c represent the number of child tickets that were sold.

The celluloid cinema sold 150 tickets to a movie. Some of these were child tickets and the rest were adult tickets. This means that

a + c = 150 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

A child ticket cost $7.75 and an adult ticket cost $10.25. If the cinema sold $1470 worth of tickets, it means that

7.75a + 10.25b = 1470 - - - - - - - - -2

What is the following product?
VMariaS [17]

For this case we must find the product of the following expression:

\sqrt {12} * \sqrt {18}

We combine using the product rule for radicals:

\sqrt [n] {a} * \sqrt [n] {b} = \sqrt [n] {ab}

So, we have:

\sqrt {12 * 18} =\\\sqrt {216} =

We rewrite the 216 as6 * 6 * 6 = 6 ^ 3 = 6 ^ 2 * 6

\sqrt {6 ^ 2 * 6} =

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have:

\sqrt [n] {a ^ n} = a ^ {\frac {n} {n}} = a

Then, the expression is:

6 \sqrt {6}

Option D

X - 3/8 = 3/6 <br><br> what is x.
Anna71 [15]
X-3/8=3/6
Add 3/8 to both sides, to leave the variable alone
X= 3/6-3/8
Use common denominators-8 (3/6 is 1/2)
X= 4/8-3/8
X=1/8

ASB is selling In-N-Out as a fundraiser. Fries cost $2 and shakes cost $3. Students can only buy one item each. ASB wants to kno
Ber [7]

Answer:

70 fries and 35 shakes

Step-by-step explanation:

ASB is selling In-N-Out as a fundraiser. Fries cost $2 and shakes cost $3. Students can only buy one item each. ASB wants to know which sells better but they lose track of what they sold. They know 105 students bought either fries or a shake. They count their money and it’s $245. How many fries (x) and shakes (y) did they sell?

f = fries

s = shakes

To solve this we need to make two equations. Those equations being: f+s = y and 2f+3s = y. Now we will plug in all the values. f + s = 105 and 2f + 3s = 245. Now we will subtract f from 105 to get s. this makes s =105-f. We can then plug this into the other equation making the other equation: 2f+ 3(105-f) = 245. Now we will simplify this to get: 2f + (315 -3f) = 245. When we simplify it further we get: 315-f = 245.Now we will subtract 315 from both sides to get: -f = -70. now divide both sides by -1 and we get f = 70. Now we can plug that into the f+ s = y equation. 70 + s = 105. Subtract 70 from both sides and we have s. S = 35
