189 tickets were purchased on Saturday. The ratio of children's tickets to adult tickets is 8:1, indicating that 8 times as many children's tickets were sold compared to adult tickets. Let c represent the number of children's tickets and a the number of adult tickets. Therefore, 8a = a + 147. By subtracting a from both sides, we find 7a = 147. Upon dividing both sides by 7, we find a = 21 adult tickets. By multiplying the number of adult tickets by 8, we discover that 21 * 8 = 168 children's tickets. Adding these together gives a total of 168 + 21 = 189 tickets sold on Saturday.

The Freeman family is barbecuing veggie burgers, corn cobs, and mushroom caps in their local park. If 3/8 of the items barbecued
AnnZ [9099]

Answer:

7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

All the items being grilled collectively equal 1.

Each item represents a fractional portion of 1.

Combine 3/8 and 1/3, then subtract that sum from 1.

3/8 + 1/3 = 9/24 + 8/24 = 17/24

This means that veggie burgers and corn contribute to 17/24 of the total.

To determine the fraction accounted for by mushrooms, we take 1 and subtract 17/24.

1 - 17/24 = 24/24 - 17/24 = 7/24.

Final answer: 7/24

Adiya said that the first step to solving the quadratic equation x2 + 6 = 20x by completing the square was to divide 6 by 2, squ
Svet_ta [9500]

Answer: Adiya's approach is incorrect. To construct a perfect square trinomial, one must isolate the constant on one side of the equation. The coefficient of the term with an exponent of 1 regarding the variable is essential to calculate the constant in the perfect square trinomial. The first step for Adiya should be to reposition the 20x term to the same side of the equation as x2. Then, she should divide 20 by 2, square that result, and add 100 to both sides.
