For a particular event, 771 tickets were sold for a total of $3037. if students paid $3 per ticket and non-students paid $5 per ticket, how many student tickets were sold?

Number of student tickets were sold = 409

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of tickets sold = 771

I.e Students ticket (S) + Non students ticket(N S)  = 771

Total amount to be paid for tickets = $ 3037

Amount paid by students per tickets = $3

Amount paid by non-students per tickets = $5

So, according to question

S + NS = 771

3 S + 5 NS = 3037

Solve both equations  

5 S + 5 NS = 771 × 5

3 S + 5 NS = 3037

so ,

(5 S + 5 NS) - (3 S + 5 NS ) = 3855 - 3037

Or, 2 S = 818

I.e S = = 409

Hence, The number of student tickets were sold = 409      Answer

true statements:

a) x + y = y + x   ⇒ commutative property of addition

b) (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) ⇒ associative property of multiplication

d) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ⇒ associative property of addition

false statements:

c) x - y = y - x   should be: x - y = - y + x

e) (x - y) - z = x - (y - z) should be: (x - y) - z = x - (y + z)

step-by-step explanation:

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
