To find the answer, set up a system of equations.
Let x=adult tickets and y=senior citizen tickets.
x+y=556
22x+12y=8492
Change the first equation to make it easy to combine with the second equation.
y=556-x
Now substitute (556-x) for y in the second equation.
22x+12(556-x)=8492
Simplify and combine like terms.
22x+6672-12x=8492
10x=1820
x=182
182 adult tickets were sold, so to solve for the number of senior citizen tickets sold, subtract 182 from 556.
556-182=374
374 senior citizen tickets were sold.
Answer:
Test it. Is 1.752 close to 8?
1.752 = 3.0625
3.0625 is not close to 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(x + 8)^2 + (y + 13)^2 = 13^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Write out (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2. Recognizing that the center is at
(h, k), with h = -8 and k = -13, and that the radius is 13, we get:
(x + 8)^2 + (y + 13)^2 = 13^2
Answer:
<h3>13.5 m/s is the right answer.</h3>
