There was a total of $548 dollars collected for tickets to the school play. The adult ticket cost $6 and the student ticket cost $4. If 12 more student tickets were sold than adult tickets, find the number of adult and student tickets sold.

Answers

Answer 1
6A + 4S = 548
s = 12 + A

Substitute
6A + 4(12 + A) = 548
6A + 48 + 4A = 548
10A = 500
A = 50
S = 62

Answer 2

To solve the problem, two equations were set up: 6A + 4S = 548 and S = A + 12. By substituting A + 12 for S in the first equation and solving, it was determined that 50 adult tickets and 62 student tickets were sold.

To solve the problem of finding the number of adult and student tickets sold, we can set up two equations based on the given information. Let A be the number of adult tickets and S be the number of student tickets sold.

Firstly, we know that the total amount collected for tickets was $548. Thus, the first equation is: 6A + 4S = 548.

Secondly, we are told that 12 more student tickets were sold than adult tickets, which gives us the second equation: S = A + 12.

Using the substitution method, we can replace S in the first equation with A + 12, leading us to: 6A + 4(A + 12) = 548. Simplifying the equation, we have 6A + 4A + 48 = 548, so 10A = 500 and A = 50.

Now that we have the number of adult tickets, we can solve for the number of student tickets by plugging the value of A into the second equation: S = 50 + 12 = 62.

Therefore, the number of adult tickets sold is 50 and the number of student tickets sold is 62.

Triangle JKL is isosceles. The measure of angle J is 72° and the measure of angle K is 36°. Which statement describes angle L?

Answers

This can have two scenarios: Angle J is the vertex and angle K is one of the base angles, or angle K is the vertex and angle J is one of the base angles. We can check this easily by seeing if they add up to 180.

Checking if the base angle is 72, we see that it fits, because 36+2(72)=180. Thus, the two base angles are angles J and L. Angle L is 72°.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

b.) Angle L is a base angle and measures 72°.

Number 123,456,789 what digit has the greatest value? what is it value

Answers

1 has the greatest value, it's worth 100,000,000 or 100 million.

In the number 123,456,789, the digit with the greatest value is 1.

The explanation is as given:

Each digit contributes value based on its position in the number. The leftmost digit holds the highest place value.

In this case, the digit 1 is in the hundreds of millions place.

1 (in the hundreds of millions place) = 1 x 100,000,000 = 100,000,000

Although the digit 9 appears at the end, it's in the ones place, which has the lowest weight (9 x 1 = 9).

Therefore, the digit with the greatest value is 1, and its value is 100,000,000.

If, Jason wants to build a cube with the minimum volume 64 cubic centimeters.

Plugging the value of volume in above function

How is twelve divided by fifteen equal to eight.

Answers

It isn't at all!

When dividing numbers, the easiest way is to imagine the values as a fraction, and then reduce that fraction. If it reduces to a core fraction (ones that you should know their decimal value without thinking), then you have your answer.

[tex] \frac{12}{15} = \frac{4}{5} = 0.8 [/tex]

We simplified our fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4, which left us with  [tex] \frac{4}{5} [/tex], which we know is equal to 0.8.

You may be confused thinking that 0.8 is the same as 8. 0.8 is actually a tenth of the value of 8. This makes them very different values.

First, we need to convert meter into the kilometer. One kilometer is equal to 1000 meter. To change meter into the kilometer, the unit used for multiplication should be km/1000m which is option C.
Then we need to convert second into the minute. One minute is equal to 60 seconds. To change "/second" into "/minute" the multiplication unit should be 60second/ 1 minute which was option A

You are ordering concert tickets. You pay a processing fee of $5, plus $18 per ticket. How many tickets can you buy for $100?

Answers

If you use the formula, 18x + 5 = 100 and solve from there you should get about 5.27 which means you can get 5 tickets and you'll have money left over.

After accounting for the $5 processing fee, you can purchase approximately 5 concert tickets with $100, as each ticket cost $18.

To determine how many concert tickets you can buy for $100, we need to account for both the fixed processing fee and the variable cost per ticket. The processing fee is a one-time payment, and the cost per ticket is multiplied by the number of tickets you want to purchase. We can set up the following equation where T represents the number of tickets:

$5 + $18T = $100

First, we subtract the processing fee from the total amount of money available:

$100 - $5 = $95

Now we divide the remaining amount by the cost per ticket:

$95 / $18 = 5.28

Since you cannot buy a fraction of a ticket, you would be able to purchase 5 tickets with $100, with a remaining balance of $5 (since 5 tickets cost $90, plus the $5 processing fee).

Shaquira is baking cookies to put in packages for a fundraiser. Shaquille has made 86 chocolate chip cookies and 42 sugar cookies. Shaquira wants to create identical packages of cookies to sell, and she must use all the cookies. What is the greatest number of identical packages Shaquira can make?

Answers

Answer:

The greatest number of identical packages Shaquira can make is 21.

Explanation:

To find the greatest number of identical packages Shaquira can make, we need to determine the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the number of chocolate chip cookies and the number of sugar cookies. The GCD represents the largest number of identical packages that can be made.

Given:

- Chocolate chip cookies: 86

- Sugar cookies: 42

We can find the GCD using the Euclidean algorithm or by listing the factors of each number and identifying the largest common factor.

By listing the factors:

- Factors of 86: 1, 2, 43, 86

- Factors of 42: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

The common factors are 1 and 2. The greatest common factor (GCD) is 2.

So, Shaquira can make the greatest number of identical packages by dividing both the number of chocolate chip cookies and the number of sugar cookies by the GCD:

[tex]\( \frac{86}{2} = 43 \)[/tex] packages from chocolate chip cookies

[tex]\( \frac{42}{2} = 21 \)[/tex] packages from sugar cookies
