At a carnival, food tickets cost $2 each and ride tickets cost $3 each. A total of $1,240 was collected at the carnival. The num

ber of food tickets sold was 10 less than twice the number of ride tickets sold.
The system of equations represents x, the number of food tickets sold, and y, the number of ride tickets sold.

2x + 3y = 1240

x = 2y – 10

How many of each type of ticket were sold?

180 food tickets and 293 ride tickets
180 food tickets and 350 ride tickets
293 food tickets and 180 ride tickets
350 food tickets and 180 ride tickets

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations satisfy the given conditions. There are 2 equations and 2 unknowns, so a certain solution can be found.

This can be solved using substitution,

Substituting eqn 2 to eqn 1:

2(2y – 10) + 3y =1240

Simplifying,

y = 180

x = 350

A triangle with exterior angles is shown. A triangle sits on a line and forms 2 exterior angles on the left and right of the tri
NARA [144]

Answer:

Option 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a triangle sits on a line and forms 2 exterior angles on the left and right of the triangle of (2h) degrees.

The top interior angle of the triangle is 40 degrees.

\angle BAC=40

From the given figure it is clear that

\angle ABC+2h=180               (Supplementary angle)

\angle ABC=180-2h

\angle ACB+2h=180               (Supplementary angle)

\angle ACB=180-2h

According to the angle sum property of triangle, the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 degree.

\angle ABC+\angle ACB+\angle BAC=180

(180-2h)+(180-2h)+40=180

Combine like terms.

(180+180+40)+(-2h-2h)=180

400-4h=180

-4h=180-400

-4h=-220

Divide both sides by -4.

h=\frac{-220}{-4}

h=55

The value of h is 55.

Therefore, the correct option is 3.

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

A score of -16 represents the <u>lowest</u> of points for these four turns.

The number for Aisha's highest score will be <u>turn 2</u> on the number line.

That number is <u>10</u>.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the options of the drop down menu are not included, you should choose any option similar to lowest.

Aisha's highest score was obtained in turn 2 and that is 10.

Aisha is comparing absolute terms, that is why she believes that -16 represents a good score, while in reality is the worst she got.
