A movie theater charges $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for children. If there were 40 people altogether and the theater collected $272.00 at the end of the day, how many
of them were adults?
A. 29 adults
B. 16 adults
C. 24 adults
D. 10 adults

Answers

Answer 1

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

A system of equations is graphed on the coordinate plane. y = -3x - 9 y = 3x + 9 What is the solution to the system of equations? (0,3) ( (-3,0) (3,0) (0,-3)​

Answers

Answer: B. (-3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x - 9...(1)

y = 3x + 9...(2)

Substitute (1) into (2)

3x+9=-3x-9

6x=-18

x=-3

Substitute y=0 into (1)

y=3(-3)+9

y=0

Therefore, the solution to the system is the ordered pair (-3, 0)

No Solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe it's no solutions. 47/3x can never equal 31/6x. Even if you try to cross multiply it (282x = 9x), you'll see that x must equal to 0.  

Therefore, x has no solutions.

There were 560 people at a play. The admission price was $2 for
adults and $1 for children. The admission receipts were $860.
How many adults and how many children attended?

Answers

Answer:

• For this one we need to split this problem into two equations:

• a (adults) + c (children) = 560

• 2a + c = $860

• Then we substitute 560 - a for c in the second equation.

2a + 560 - a = 8602a + 560 = 8602a = 5302a = 265

• Then we plug this into the first equation:

265 + c = 560

c = 295

A group of students organized a car wash to raise money for a local charity. The students charged $9.99 for each car they watched.In 3.5 hours they washed 14 cars.at that rate how much money could they earn in 8 hours?

Answers

Answer:

First you would divide 12 cars by 3 hours to see how many cars get washed per hour

Then you know that 4 cars get washed in one hour so you multiply it by $5.00 because you want to see how much money they earn in one hour

After you know they earn $20.00 per hour you multiply that by 8 because you want to see how much money they earn in eight hours

So your final answer is $160 for washing cars in 8 hours

the line passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope that is reciprocal of the slope of the line y=1/3x+2

point slope form and slope intercept form pls​

Answers

first you have to change 1/3 to -3

y=-3x+2

then you have to replace 2 with 'b' because you don't know the y intercept yet

y=-3x+b

then you substitute the point (4,7) into the equation

7= -3(4) + b

7= -12 + b

19 = b

y = -3x + 19 is the equation in slope intercept form

for point slope form:

-3x is still the slope and you replace x and y with the point 4,7

y- 7= -3 (x-4)

How many 1/4 inch cubes does it take to fill a box with width 1 inches, length 3 3/4 inches and height 1 1/2inches?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to see how many cubes fit into every dimension.

we can fit 4 cubes along the 1 in width. as 4×1/4 = 1 in.

we can fit 15 cubes along the 3 3/4 in length :

3 3/4 = 12/4 + 3/4 = 15/4

15/4 / 1/4 = 15/4 × 4/1 = 4×15 / 4×1 = 15

we can put 6 cubes on top of each other fit the height of 1 1/2 in

1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2 = 6/4

6/4 / 1/4 = ... = 6 (as above - simply 1/4 fits 6 times into 6/4).

so, we have

4 × 15 × 6 = 360

we need 360 cubes to fill the box.
