Total 427 tickets sold 73 fewer student tickets than adult tickets how many adult tickets

9514 1404 393

  250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets.

  a +(a -73) = 427

  2a = 500 . . . . . add 73

  a = 250 . . . . . . divide by 2

250 adult tickets were sold.

Additional comment

I call this a "sum and difference problem" because we are given the total of two values and the difference between them. As you can see here, the larger of the two values is the average of the given numbers, their sum divided by 2. This is the generic solution to such a problem: the larger number is the average of the given sum and difference.

part a

in a city ice cream is mostly only bought when the temperature is very high as ice cream cools down our

so we can derive the conclusion that as the temperature increases the number of ice creams sold also increases

part b

y intercept is 5

slope is 2
