Answer:

64 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set this up a system of equations. Number child tickets is c and adults are a.

5.1c+8.8a=1144.8

c+a=157

We can now solve by elimination. Let's multiply the second equation by -8.8 so that we are left with the child tickets.

-8.8c-8.8a= -1,381.6

We combine the two equations.

-3.7c=-236.8

Divide both sides by -3.7

c=64

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer:  The cost of one rose bush is $7 and the cost of one shrub is also $7

Step-by-step explanation:

The situtation can be represented by the systems of the equations.

10x + 4y  =  98   x in this case is the cost of  one rose bushes

9x + 9y =  126     y  is the cost of one shrub.  

Solve the system of equation using the elimination method.

10x +4y = 98

9x + 9y = 126     eliminate the y variable so you will have to multiply 9 on top                                          and -4 down.

9(10x +4) = (98)(9)

-4(9x + 9y) = 126(-4)

You will now have the new two systems of equations

90x +36y = 882

-36x +-36y = -504    Now add the equations

0  + 54x = 378      

        54x = 378

  x= 7

Now we know that the cost of one rose bush is 7 so we will plot it into one of the equations and solve for the cost of one shrub.

90(7) +36y=882

630 +36y = 882

-630            -630

    36y = 252

   y = 7

Check:  10(7) + 4(7)= 98

              70  + 28 = 98

             98= 98  

so one rose bush is actually 7 dollars the same as 1 shrub.

A square pyramid and a cube have the same total surface area. The width of the cube is 8 centimeters. The base of the pyramid is
azamat

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area of cube = 6×8² = 384 cm²

lateral area of pyramid = surface area of pyramid - base area

= 384 - 8²

= 320 cm²

area of triangular face = 320/4 = 80 = ½(base)(slant height) = ½(8)(slant height)

slant height = 20 cm
