Answer:
81 adult tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Set up a system of equations
Since the adult tickets and student tickets add to 243, we can do
and the student tickets sold were 2x the adult tickets, we can do
We can replace s in the first equation adding to 243 with 2a
Step 2:
Solve for a. We can divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, there were 81 adult tickets sold.
Step 3:
We can check our work! Since we learned earlier the student tickets are 2x adult tickets, we can multiply 81 by 2 and add that to 81 to see if it equals 243!
And...
So, 81 must be the answer!
Answer:
2. it's a rectangle so Each pair of co-interior angles are supplementary, because two right angles add to a straight angle, so the opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel. This means that a rectangle is a parallelogram, so: Its opposite sides are equal and parallel. Its diagonals bisect each other.
3. same size same shape
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C.
Another way to write the added percent of something is by putting a 1 to indicate the aditional.
To solve this problem, we can set up an equation, letting the unknown value of last month's supply sales be represented by the variable x.
First, we must convert 78% to its decimal equivalent, by dividing 78/100. This is because percentages are parts of a whole 100 percent.
78/100 = 0.78
Now, we are ready to set up our equation, using our knowledge that the word "of" refers to multiplication in mathematics.
3,285 = 0.78x
To solve our equation, we must divide both sides of the equation by 0.78 to get the variable x alone on the right side of the equation.
x = 4211.53846154
This means that last month's supply sales were about $4,211.54 (we round the last digit up because 8 is greater than 5).
Hope this helps!
