Number of adult tickets sold is 31 and number of child tickers sold is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the equation to find the number of child and adult tickets sold.
Let the number of adult tickets sold be x, then the number of child tickets will be 50 - x. (Since there is a total of 50 seats)
Charge for a child ticket = $2
Charge for adult ticket = $5
Total amount received from show = $193
Equation ⇒ 2(50 - x) + 5x = 193
- Step 2: Solve the equation to find x.
⇒ 100 - 2x + 5x = 193
⇒ 3x = 93
∴ x = 93/3 = 31
⇒ 50 - x = 50 - 31 = 19
Answer:
d. Distributive property
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>Distributive property</em> of multiplication over addition is what allows you to multiply each of the terms in parentheses by the factor outside parentheses. It tells you ...
a(b +c) = ab + ac
It works both ways, also allowing you to remove a common factor to outside parentheses.
