Answer:

The number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.

Given that,

Tickets to a movie cost $7.25 for adults and $5.50 for students.

A group of friends purchased 8 tickets for $52.75.

Here we assume the no of adult tickets and no of student tickets be x and y.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

7.25x + 5.50y = 52.75 .............(i)

x + y = 8

x = 8 - y..................(2)

Now put the x value in the equation (1)

So,  

7.25(8-y) + 5.50y = 52.75

7.25 × 8 - 7.25y + 5.50y = 52.75

58 - 1.75y = 52.75

5.25 = 1.75y

y = 3

So,  

x = 8 - 3

= 5

Therefore we can conclude that the number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.

If 49x2 + 28x - 10 is rewritten as p2 + 4p -10, what is p in terms of<br> p=
madam [21]

Answer:

p=7x

Step-by-step explanation:

49x^[2] + 28x - 10 = p^[2] + 4p -10

This equation is in the form a^[2]x + bx + c.

<u><em>The 'c' is common for both equations, this means the 'a' and 'b' must also be common. </em></u>

There are two ways to find p: 'a' or 'b'

<u>a method</u>

49x^[2] = p^[2]

=> The square root of both sides = 7x = p

<u>b method</u>

28x = 4p

28x/4 = 4p/4

7x = p

yulyashka [42]

Step-by-step explanation:

what did we learn in the other question ?

there are 8 equal sub-segments of 1/8 length between neighboring whole numbers.

so, each little line is 1/8.

the marker goes first to 1, and then one little line towards 2.

therefore, that number is 1 1/8.

Answer:

y =  -  \frac{11}{2} x + 30 \frac{1}{2}

or

y = 30 \frac{1}{2}  -  \frac{11}{2} x

if accepted:

2y =  - 11x + 61

or

2y = 61 - 11x
