,! if 108 people attend a concert and tickets for adults cost $3.75 while tickets for children cost $1.5 and total receipts for the concert was $252, how many of each went to the concert?

adults = 40

children = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the children=c

Let the adults = a

Equations

a + c = 108                 (1)

3.75a + 1.5c = 252    (2)

Multiply (1) by 1.5

1.5a + 1.5c = 162        (3)

Subtract (3) from (2)

3.75a + 1.5c = 252

1.5   a + 1.5c = 162    Subtract

2.25a             = 90   Divide by 2.25

a = 90/2.25

a = 40

Find the number of children

a + c = 108

40 + c = 108

c = 108 - 40

c = 68

Check

LHS

3.75 * 40 + 1.50 * 68

150 + 102

252 Which checks with the right hand side.

  n=   0.0000 - 0.3750 i  

  n=   0.0000 + 0.3750 i

step-by-step explanation:

one of these should be correct

δabc ≅ δdcb by sas because

db ≅ ac . . given (side)

bc ≅ bc . . reflexive property (side)

∠dbc ≅ ∠ acb . . alternate interior angles where transversal bc crosses parallel lines bd and ac (included angle)
