PLEASE HELP! For a concert 5,000 tickets were sold, and the proceeds were $72,000. Tickets for children 16 and younger were $10,

adults were $20, and seniors 60 and older were $15. There were 3 times more children than seniors at the concert. What system of equations represents the number of children, c, adults, a, and seniors, s, that attended the concert?

A: the first answer is the best option

if there is a total of 5000 tickets, and we know there were adults, children, and seniors, then the equation:
c + a + s = 5000 is correct

if we are using c, a, and s as variables for how many children, adults, and seniors were in attendance, then by matching the corresponding price, we should have the equation:
$72000= 10c + 20a + 15s

lastly, if we know the amnt of children in attendance was 3x more than the amnt of seniors, the equation:
3s = c is best because by multiplying the number of seniors in attendance by 3, you will get 3x more children than seniors

hope this helps, and is correct :)!

Can you simplify before multiplying 14×25/27​
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can not simplify this expression before multiplying it, because no whole numbers go into both 14 and 27, and also no whole numbers go into both, 25 and 27. This is the correct answer to this question.

Hope this helps!!!

The local skating rink pays marry a fixed rate per pupil plus a base amount to work as a skating instructor. she earns $90 for i
Ganezh [65]
You have to make a system of equations: lets make a equal the amount marry makes per student and b be her base amount.
90=15a+b (you have to subtract the top equation by the bottom equation)
62=8a+b   (90-62=28, 15a-8a=7a, and b-b=0)
Since b canceled out, you are left with 7a=28 which means a=4.  you can than plug a into the equation 62=8a+b to find that b=30.

since Lisa makes half of the base amount marry, her base amount is 15.  However, she also make twice the amount per kid so she makes 8 per kid.
using the found values found you can make the equations (m=the amount Marry makes, l=the amount Lisa makes, and c is the number of children)
m=4c+30
l=8c+15
set c=20 and you should get m=110 and l=175.  Based off of that information, we can say that Lisa makes more money instructing a class of 20 students.
I hope this helps.

A regular decagon has sides that are 8 cm long. What is the area of the figure? Round to the nearest whole number.
blsea [12.9K]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the regular decagon has sides that are 8 cm long.

We need to determine the area of the regular decagon.

<u>Area of the regular decagon:</u>

The area of the regular decagon can be determined using the formula,

A=\frac{s^{2} n}{4 \tan \left(\frac{180}{n}\right)}

where s is the length of the side and n is the number of sides.

Substituting s = 8 and n = 10, we get;

A=\frac{8^{2} \times 10}{4 \tan \left(\frac{180}{10}\right)}

Simplifying, we get;

A=\frac{64 \times 10}{4 (\tan \ 18)}

A=\frac{640}{4 (0.325)}

A=\frac{640}{1.3}

A=642.3

Rounding off to the nearest whole number, we get;

A=642 \ cm^2

Thus, the area of the regular decagon is 642 cm²

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

Jack is 27 years older than Susan. In 5 years he will be 4 times as old as she is. Find the present ages of jack and Susan
riadik2000 [5.3K]
X - Jack's age
y - Susan's age

Jack is 27 years older than Susan.
x=y+27

In 5 years he will be 4 times as old as she is.
x+5=4(y+5)

The system of equations:
x=y+27 \\ x+5=4(y+5) \\ \\ \hbox{substitute y+27 for x in the 2nd equation:} \\ y+27+5=4(y+5) \\ y+32=4y+20 \\ y-4y=20-32 \\ -3y=-12 \\ y=\frac{-12}{-3} \\ y=4 \\ \\ x=y+27=4+27=31

Jack is 31 years old and Susan is 4 years old.
