Answer:
adult tickets = 17, children tickets = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of children and y the number of adults
Then given that 26 tickets are sold, we can write
x + y = 26 → (1)
Given that ticket cost was $194 we can write
5.5x + 8.5y = 194 → (2)
Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x by subtracting x from both sides
y = 26 - x → (3)
Substitute y = 26 - x into (2)
5.5x + 8.5(26 - x) = 194 ← distribute and simplify left side
5.5x + 221 - 8.5x = 194
- 3x + 221 = 194 ( subtract 221 from both sides )
- 3x = - 27 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 9
Substitute x = 9 into (3) for corresponding value of y
y = 26 - 9 = 17
Hence number of adult tickets sold = 17
number of children tickets sold = 9
X/5 = 24/8
(because the triangles are similar)
x/5 = 3
x = 5*3 = 15 Answer
a/27 = 8/24 = 1/3
a = 9 Answer
66% divided by 365 days is the answer i think
The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y=mx+b. m being the slope (part one of name) and b being the y-intercept (part 2 of name).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by dividing both sides by 2, getting .
