Answer:

Number of senior citizen tickets sold= 110

Number of adults tickets sold= 290

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we need to establish a system of equations:</u>

x= number of adults tickets

y= number of senior citizen tickets

x + y= 400

6x + 3y= 2,070

<u>Now, we isolate x in one equation and substitute the value in the other:</u>

x= 400 - y

6*(400 - y) + 3y = 2,070

2,400 - 6y + 3y = 2,070

330 = 3y

110 = y

Number of senior citizen tickets sold= 110

Number of adults tickets sold= 290

<u>Prove:</u>

290 + 110= 400

6*290 + 3*110= 2,070

An elevator is rated to safely hold ten 250 lb people. The elevator is loaded as follows: three 600 lbs cartons of books, Jim (1
iris [78.8K]
To do this, we will need to find how much the elevator can hold in all. Multiply 10 by 250 to get 2500. Since it can also hold 10% more, multiply 2500 and 0.10 to find out how much 10% is. You get 250. Add 2500 and 250 to get how much the elevator can safely hold. It would be 2750.

To find out how much more weight can be added, first find out how much weight is on the elevator collectively. (books) 600+ (Jim) 180+ (Gavin) 330 + (Deb) 250 + (Susan) 120 = 1480. Subtract this from the amount the elevator can hold, and you get how much more weight can be added. 2750-1480= 1270.

The elevator can hold 1270 more ibs.
