Adult tickets to a musical cost $15 and children's tickets cost $8. A total of 725 tickets were sold which brought in a total of $8775.

How many of each type of ticket were sold?

State the equation used to solve, along with both answers.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Cost of adult's ticket = $15

Cost of  children's  ticket = $8

Total tickets = 725

Total sales = $8775

To find:

The number of each type of ticket were sold.

Solution:

Let x be the number of adult tickets and y be the number of children's ticket.

Total tickets : [tex]x+y=725[/tex]         ...(i)

Total sales : [tex]15x+18y=8775[/tex]           ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 15.

[tex]15x+15y=10875[/tex]         ...(iii)

Subtract (iii) from (ii),

[tex]15x+18y-15x-15y=8775-10875[/tex]

[tex]3x=-2100[/tex]

[tex]x=-700[/tex]

Putting x=-700 in (i), we get

[tex]-700+y=725[/tex]

[tex]y=725+700[/tex]

[tex]y=1425[/tex]

Therefore, the number of adult tickets is -700 and number of child tickets is 1425.

Note: The number of tickets cannot be negative. So, there must be some error in the question.

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line with a slope of 1/4 that passes through the point (-1, -8)

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/4 x - 31/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = 1/4

Point A (-1, -8)

y = mx + b

-8 = 1/4 (-1) + b

-8 + 1/4 = b

b = -32/4 + 1/4

b = -31/4

y = mx + b <-- this is a linear equation, continuing line, so there are infinite values for x and y. Therefore we don't have to plug the values of x and y in

y = 1/4 x + - 31/4

y = 1/4 x - 31/4

A function is a relation that is either

one-to-one, meaning each output only has one inputmany-to-one meaning some outputs can have more that one input, but all inputs only have one output

So, That pic is cramped, don't even know what functions are being referenced but

from the a, b, c, d relation

It is not a function because some inputs have more that one output, which fails our man-to-one rule

From the equations

-3x = 15 is not a function, because it only has one input but more than one output breaking rule 12y=10 is a function because every input x has only one output y, it is many-to-one3x-0.25y=3 is a function, it is one to one

From the graph

the line is a function, since it is many-to-one

From the points

the x coordinate is the input, not points (2,6) and (2,3) have the same input for two outputs, breaking rule 2, that each input should have only one output. So the points are not a function

Answer:

3- False, 4- True

Step-by-step explanation:

Garden A

Rectangle with sides

Width ⇒ 2x - 3 feetLength ⇒ 5(2x - 3) = 10x - 15

Perimeter is

2(w + l) = 2( 2x - 3 + 10x - 15) = 24x - 36Garden B

Triangle with sides

5x + 5, 4x + 2, 8x - 8

Perimeter is

5x + 5 + 4x + 2 + 8x - 8 = 17x - 1Statement 3

The difference in perimeters is the difference is fencing:

24x - 36 - (17x - 1) = 24x - 17x - 36 + 1 = 7x - 35

Since it is different from 7x - 37 the statement is FALSE

Statement 4

Garden A is surrounded by a path of 2.5 ft wide

It will have the perimeter added by 2.5*2*4 = 20 ft as each side is extended by 2*2.5 ft = 5ft

So the perimeter is going to be:

24x - 36 + 20 = 24x - 16

Complete Question:

You plant an 8-inch spruce tree that grows 4 inches per year and a 14-inch hemlock tree that grows 6 inches per year.

The initial heights are shown.

Write a system of linear equations that represents this situation.

Answer:

[tex]s(x) = 8 + 4x[/tex]

[tex]h(x) = 14 + 6x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Spruce Tree (s):

[tex]Initial\ Height = 8[/tex]

[tex]Growth = 4[/tex] (yearly)

Hemlock Tree (h):

[tex]Initial\ Height = 14[/tex]

[tex]Growth = 6[/tex] (yearly)

Required

Represent as system of linear equations

Let the number of years be x.

In both cases, the equation can be formed using:

[tex]Equation = Initial\ Height + Growth * x[/tex]

For Spruce Tree (s):

[tex]s(x) = 8 + 4 * x[/tex]

[tex]s(x) = 8 + 4x[/tex]

For Hemlock Tree (h):

[tex]h(x) = 14 + 6 * x[/tex]

[tex]h(x) = 14 + 6x[/tex]

Hence, the equations are [tex]s(x) = 8 + 4x[/tex] and [tex]h(x) = 14 + 6x[/tex]

Liberty Center Middle School has 1,200 students. In Sophia’s class, 3 out of 4 students borrowed library books. Based on these results, how many students at the school would you expect to borrow library books?

Answers

Answer:

We expect 900 students to borrow library books

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

If two variables are proportional, then one of them can be obtained as the other times a fixed number.

If x and y are proportional, then:

y=k.x

Where k is the constant of proportionality

The value of k can be obtained by dividing y/x.

That division, also called ratio gives us the proportion to be applied to future calculations.

In Sophia's class, 3 out of 4 students borrowed library books.

This gives us a proportion ratio of 3/4.

If we apply that same proportion to the rest of the Liberty Center Middle School, with 1,200 students, then, we expect to have

3 / 4 * 1200 = 900 students borrowing library books.

Elle placed a bucket under a leaky roof. The bucket was 3/10 full after 2/5 of an hour. How much water is leaking per hour?

Answers

Answer:

The amount of water leaking per hour is 3/4 of the bucket volume

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The volume of water in the bucket = 3/10 of the bucket volume

The time duration of the leak = 2/5 hour

Therefore;

The leak rate = Volume/Time

The amount of water leaking per hour = (3/10 of the bucket volume)/(2/5 hour)

The leak rate = The amount of water leaking per hour = 3/4 of the bucket volume/hour.

The amount of water leaking per hour is  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of the bucket volume.

Given ;

The volume of water in the bucket =  [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] of the bucket volume

The time duration of the leak =  [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] hour

Therefore;

The leak rate = [tex]\frac{volume }{time}[/tex]

The amount of water leaking per hour = ( [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] 0f the bucket volume)/([tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] hour)

                                                                =  ( [tex]\frac{3}{10} . \frac{5}{2}[/tex] ) volume per hour

The leak rate = The amount of water leaking per hour = 3/4 of the bucket volume per hour.

Which value of x makes the equation 0.5(x + 15) = 2 + 0.75(x - 4) true?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(x+15) = 2 + \frac{3}{4}(x-4)[/tex]

To make this easier, to get ride of the fractions, we can multiply both sides by 4

[tex]2(x+15) = 8 + 3(x-4)[/tex]

now use the distributive property

[tex]2x + 30 = 8 + 3x - 12\\[/tex]

now we want to isolate x to one side and isolate all the constants to the other

[tex]2x - 3x = 8 - 12 - 30\\[/tex]

now simplify

[tex]-x = -34\\x = 34[/tex]

to test, we can plug in back to the original

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(34+15) = \frac{49}{2}\\\frac{8}{4} + \frac{3}{4}(34-4) = \frac{8}{4} + \frac{90}{4} = \frac{98}{4} = \frac{49}{2}[/tex]

To Find :

If his weekly salary  increases by $50 and his commission increases to 7%  how much will Greg earn if his weekly sales are  $4,000.

Solution :

New weekly salary, S = $( 300 + 50 ) = $350 .

New commission on $4000 sales :

What is a linear function?

A straight line on the coordinate plane is represented by a linear function.

A linear function always has the same and constant slope.

The formula for a linear function is f(x) = ax + b, where a and b are real values.

The linear function is given as,

y = mx + c

Here, m is the slope while c is the y-intercept.

Slope m = (-13 + 9)/(2 - 1)

m = -4

Put m = -4, (1,-9)

-9 = -4(1) + c

c = -5

y = -4x - 5

Hence "The linear function or equation in the slope-intercept form will be y = -4x - 5".
