Adult tickets for the school play are $12.00 and children's tickets are $8.00. If a theatre holds 300 seats and the sold out per

formance brings in $3280.00, how many children and adults attended the play?

Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.

Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.

Using the substitution method:

x + y = 300   ⇒   y = 300 - x   ⇒   Equation (3)

12x + 8y = 3280   ⇒   12x + 8(300-x) = 3280   ⇒   x = 220

y = 300 - x   ⇒   y = 300-220 ⇒ 80

Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.

Answer:

This is a 4th degree polynomial!

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the polynomial starts of the a number with a 4th degree and decreases down with lower numbers. Simply put, because (x^4) has the largest degree.

Hope this helps, good luck! :)

If l is a line whose equation is y=5x-3, find the equation of the image of l under each of the following translations a. (x,y) -
Naddika [18.5K]
Consider the line y=5x-3. Two solutions (x, y) of this equation, are points on the line.

For example, let x=0, then y=-3. So (0, -3) is a point on the line.

If x=1, then y=5*1-3=5-3=2, so (1, 2) is a point on the line.

a) 

Consider the transformations of these two points under <span>(x,y) --> (x, y-6):

</span>(0,-3) --> (0, -3-6)=(0, -9),
(1, 2) --> (1, 2-6)=(1, -4).

So (0, -3) and (1, 2) are translated to respectively (0, -9) and (1, -4).

The whole line is translated to the line containing (0, -9) and (1, -4).

The slope of the new line is m= \frac{-9-(-4)}{0-1}= \frac{-5}{-1}=5. The equation of the line is:

                                   y-(-9)=5(x-0), 

that is,                               y=5x-9.


b) 

Consider the transformations of these two points under (x,y) --> (x+2, y):

(0,-3) --> (0+2, -3)=(2, -3),
(1, 2) --> (1+2, 2)=(3, 2).

The slope of the new line is m= \frac{-3-2}{2-3}= \frac{-5}{-1}=5.

The equation of the line is
                 
                                   y-2=5(x-3), 
which can be written as
                                        y=5x-13.


Answer:

a)  y=5x-9

b)  y=5x-13

The highest and lowest temperatures of Town X were 4°C and -18°C respectively. Find the difference between these two temperature
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Difference: 4-(-18)=22

                             =22 degrees celcius

Lowest temperature: 12 degrees higher that -18 degrees

                                  = 12+(-18)

                                  = -6 degrees celcius.
