Since opening night, attendance at Play A has increased steadily, while attendance at Play B first rose and then fell. Equations

modeling the daily attendance y at each play are shown below, where x is the number of days since opening night. On what day(s) was the attendance the same at both plays? What was the attendance?
Play A: y = 8x + 191
Play B: y = -x^2 + 26x + 126

a. The attendance was never the same at both plays.

b. The attendance was the same on day 5. The attendance was 231 at both plays on that day.

c. The attendance was the same on day 13. The attendance was 295 at both plays on that day.

d. The attendance was the same on days 5 and 13. The attendance at both plays on those days was 231 and 295 respectively.

Answer: option d is correct .


Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the same attendance  we set both equation equal

8x+191 = -x^2+26x+126

simplifying equation ,we get

x^2 -18x+65=0

(x-5) (x-13) = 0

x =5  or x =13

therefore on 5th day and 13th day  both plays attendance  is same

and it is obtained by plugging x = 5 in  and x =13 in either of the equation.

for x = 5 ,

y = 8(5) +191 = 40+191 = 231

for x = 13

y = 8(13)+191

 = 104+191

 = 295

therefore option d is correct

Please help me with this math problem

If you look at the graph you can tell the graph is increasing before x = -2. 

From x = -2 to x = 0, it's decreasing.

Then it's increasing again from x = 0 to x = 2, then decreasing after x = 2

So answer is the last one
It is increasing before x = -2 and from x = 0 to x = 2

Use graphing to find the solutions to the system of equations.
Galina-37 [17]
In order to utilize the graph, first you have to distinguish which graph accurately pertains to the two functions.

This can be done by rewriting the equations in the form y = mx + b which can be graphed with ease; where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

-x^2 + y = 1
y = x^2 + 1

So this will be a basic y = x^2 parabola where the center intercepts on the y axis at (0, 1)

-x + y = 2
y = x +2

So this will be a basic y = x linear where the y intercept is on the y axis at (0, 2)

The choice which depicts these two graphs correctly is the first choice. The method to find the solutions to the system of equations by using the graph is by determining the x coordinate of the points where the two graphed equations intersect.
