Answer:
a = $13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = adult tickets
Let c = children tickets
Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation;
<u>For the Martinez family;</u>
2a + 3c = $60
<u>For the Wright family;</u>
3a + 5c = $95.5
Thus, the simultaneous equations are;
..........equation 1
.........equation 2
We would use substitution method to solve;
From equation 2, we make a the subject of formula;
3a = 95.5 - 5c
a = (95.5 - 5c)/3
<em>Substituting the value of "a" into equation 1, we have;</em>
2[(95.5-5c)/3] + 3c = 60
Multiplying all through by 3;
2(95.5 - 5c) + 9c = 180
191 - 10c + 9c = 180
191 - c = 180
c = 191-180
c = $11
To find the value of a;
2a +3c = 60
<em>Substituting the value of "c" into the equation, we have;</em>
a = $13.5
<em>Therefore, the cost of an adult movie ticket is $13.5. </em>
Because the triangles are similar the ratio of all the sides would be the same. So you need to find the ratio of the common sides and then use that ratio to find the unkown side.
In this picture sides FG = 52, FV would be the same side and is 24.
Dividing 24/52 = 0.461, so the unkown side WV would be 0.444 of it's common side HG.
HG = 39
39 * 0.461= 18.
The answer is C. 18
Answer: Pentagon
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 297 students in the 7th grade. Rough estimates would say that about half of that number are boys and half are girls. Asking only 50 random girls would be biased because not only would it not be all of the girls (the number of girls would be around 148 or 149) but it would also be ignoring the roughly 148 to 149 boys there are on estimate. The sample would be biased because it would be ignoring the opinions of more than half the seventh grade.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x^2-36 can be rewritten as -4(x^2 + 9). The quantity in parentheses does not have real roots, but does have the imaginary roots ±3i.
