For this problem, let x be the number of children and y for adults. Formulate the equations: 1st equation, x + y = 3,200 and 2nd equation 5x + 9y = 24,000. Re-arrange 1st equation into x = 3200 - y. Then, substitute into 2nd equation, 5(3,200-y) + 9y = 24,000. Then, solve for y. The 16,000 - 5y + 9y = 24000. Final answer is, y = 2000 adults went to watch the movie.

What valur of x makes the equation below true? 9^5 * 9^7=9^x
klasskru [66]

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

(9^5)(9^7)=9^x

282429536481=9^x

<em>Step 1: Flip the equation.</em>

9^x=282429536481

<em>Step 2: Solve Exponent.</em>

9^x=282429536481

log(9^x)=log(282429536481)(Take log of both sides)

x*(log(9))=log(282429536481)

x=log(282429536481)/log(9)

x=12

allsm [11]
4. 8+12=20

4 (2+3)
First you add 2+3 and get 5
Next, since the 5 is now in the parentheses, it indicates that you have to multiply

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!<br> Make sure you show all your work for full points. What is o?
Pie

Answer:

  o = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle sum theorem tells you the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. The definition of a linear pair tells you the two angles of a linear pair total 180°. Together, these relations tell you that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the remote interior angles.

In this geometry, the angle marked 78° is exterior to the left-side triangle. That means ...

  78° = o° +24°

  o° = 78° -24° = 54°

The value of 'o' is 54.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

n° is the supplement of 78°, so is 102°.

m° is the difference between 102° and 22°, so is 80°.
