Answer:

  x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.

  (2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180

  4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)

  x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and  eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.

Ivahew [28]

Answer: Children tickets cost 7.50

Adult tickets cost 12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent adult tickets

Let c represent child tickets

On the first day she sells 6 adult tickets and 5 children tickets for total of 112.50. This can be written as:

6a + 5c = 112.50 ...... equation i

On the second day she sells 8 adult tickets and 4 children tickets for the total 130. This can be written as:

8a + 4c = 130 ....... equation ii

6a + 5c = 112.50 ...... equation i

8a + 4c = 130 ....... equation ii

Multiply equation i by 4

Multiply equation ii by 5

24a + 20c = 450 ........ equation iii

40a + 20c = 650 ......... equation iv

Subtract iii from iv

16a = 200

a = 200/16

a = 12.50

Adult tickets cost 12.50

From equation ii,

8a + 4c = 130

8(12.50) + 4c = 130

100 + 4c = 130

4c = 130 - 100

4c = 30

c = 30/4

c = 7.50

Children tickets cost 7.50

Keith_Richards [23]
Find thy radius.

Thy radius is 7.25 (D / 2 = R)

Thy formula for area is A = (pi)r^2

Substitute and Solve

A = (pi)r^2
   = (pi)(7.25)^2
   = (pi)(52.5625)
   = 165.04625

Therefore, the area is about 165.
