Answer:

C) 24 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of adults and C be the number of children.

If a ticket costs $8 per adult, we can express this as 8A

If a ticket costs $5 per child, we can express this as 5C

Combining the two expressions, we can write 8A+5C=272 as our first equation since the total amount of money collected is $272.

Our second equation would be A+C=40 since there are 40 people.

Now, we can take the second equation and write it as C=40-A so we can substitute the value of C into the first equation as 40-A so we only have to deal with one variable, the amount of adults that went to the theater.

The first equation now becomes 8A+5(40-A)=272 and is much easier to solve:

8A+5(40-A)=272

8A+200-5A=272

3A+200=272

3A=72

A=24

Therefore, there are 24 adults

Each notebook would be 68 cents because if you divide 15.85 into 3 you will get 2 cents then you add 1.23 then subtract .75

The reference angle is, in other words, the angle formed by the terminal side and the x-axis.

Reference angle is given by

Ф = 360° - Given angle

Ф = 360° - 302°

Someone Explain to me how 5. Is valid ???

vichka [17]

This is valid through the law of syllogism. If you swap lines 1 and 2, then you'll have this argument:

If I step on a beehive, then I will get stung.

If I get stung by a bee, then it will hurt.

Therefore, if I step on a beehive, then it will hurt

------------------

So it's like connecting a chain together. Point A (stepping on the hive), leads to point B (getting stung), which leads to point C (getting hurt). We can take a shortcut to bypass point B to jump from A to C in one step. Check out the attached image for a visual of what I'm referring to.
