According to the characteristics of <em>ticket</em> sales and the resulting system of linear equations we find that 122 children bought each one a ticket on Sunday.

<h3>How many children went to the movie theatre?</h3>

In this question we have a <em>word</em> problem, whose information must be translated into <em>algebraic</em> expressions to find a solution. Let be x and y the number of children and adults that went to the movie theatre, respectively.

We need two <em>linear</em> equations, one for the number of people assisting to the theatre and another for the total sales:

x - 4 · y = 0     (1)

6.30 · x + 9.50 · y = 1063.20     (2)

By algebraic procedures the solution to this system is: x = 122.559, y = 30.639. Since the number of tickets sold are integers, then we truncate each result: x = 122, y = 30.

According to the characteristics of <em>ticket</em> sales and the resulting system of linear equations we find that 122 children bought each one a ticket on Sunday.

Write an exponential function in the form y=ab^x that goes through points (0,14) and (3,3024).
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y = 14 (6)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

For an exponential function of the form y = ab^{x}

Use the given points to find a and b

Using (0, 14 ), then

14 = ab^{0} ( b^{0} = 1 ) , thus

a = 14

y = 14b^{x}

Using (3, 3024 ) , then

3024 = 14 b³ ( divide both sides by 14 )

216 = b³ ( take the cube root of both sides )

b = \sqrt[3]{216} = 6 , thus

y = 14 × 6^{x} ← exponential function

The _____ justifies the conclusion that ∆ABD ≅ ∆AEC.
elena55 [62]
It is the AAS Postulate.

Explanation: You’re given two right angles (because perpendicular sides make right angles).

This also means that the angle next to them are also right angles, because they are linear pairs (180-90=90)

The right angles are:
This is your first A.

Both triangles also share a similar angle:
This is your second A.

You’re given side BD is congruent to EC.

This is your S.

It’s AAS and not ASA because the order refers to how they are connected: they are congruent in the order that the first set of congruent angles connect to the next, then to the congruent side.

How would you solve this problem? (Worth 10 points, pls help!)
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

(22,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Select any two points given and find their slope (rise/run)

       (-38, 40) and (-23, 30)

      slope =   \frac{40-30}{-38-(-23)} = - 2/3

2. Use the slope and one of the points to create an equation of the line in the format y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

    y = mx + b ⇒ 40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

3. Solve for b

   40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

   40 = 76/3 + b

   40 - 76/3 = b

   b = 44/3

4. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0, and solve.

   y = -2/3 x + 44/3

   0 = -2/3 x + 44/3

   2/3 x = 44/3

   x = 22

Hope this helped!
