A + c = 824                             represents number of tickets to sell
20a + 12c = 13,344                represents cost of each type of ticket

multiply equation 1 by -12 to cancel the variable 'c' and solve for 'a'

-12(a + c = 824)

-12a - 12c = - 9888
 20a + 12c = 13,344         add equations together
-----------------------------
    8a          = 3456           divide both sides by 8
     a = 432

To find children's tickets substitute adult numbers back into equation 1.
a + c = 824
432 + c = 824
subtract 432 from both sides
c = 392

adult 432, children 392

P:-3x + 8x - 5x = x<br><br> q: (3x)(5y) = 15xy<br><br> Which of the following statements is false?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: Statement p is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

In both cases, we need to isolate the variables:

p: -3*x + 8*x - 5*x = x

   (-3*x - 5*x) + 8*x = x

    -8x + 8*x = x

        0 = x

This will be true only for one value of x, so this is not always true, which means that the statement is false.

q: (3*x)*(5*y) = 15*x*y

let's solve the left side:

  3*x*5*y = 15*x*y

  (3*5)*(x*y) = 15*x*y

   15*x*y = 15*x*y

This is true for every value of x and y, then this statement is true.

If 3/4 of an inch of rain fell in 1/2 hour, explain how to get the unit rate
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Search to find the detailed rainfall collections if you want more detailed rainfall intensity data. If all available is monthly average in mm, take the monthly average and divide by number of hours in that month. So if you had 300 mm in April, take 360 mm/(30 days * 24 hours) = 0.5 mm/hour average monthly intensity. so that's it

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

W∩ X is asking for the intersection of sets W and X, or simply, which numbers can be found in both sets.

The numbers shared between the two sets are 3, 4, 5.

Next, we need to union this result with the set Y, or simply, combine the numbers in both sets together.

This would result in 2, 3, 4, 5
