Let:
x = cost of senior citizen ticket
y = cost of student ticket

4x + 5y = 102
7x + 5y = 126

4x + 5y = 102
4x = 102 - 5y
x = (102 - 5y)/4
x = 102/4 - 5y/4

7x + 5y = 126
7(102/4 - 5y/4) + 5y = 126
(714/4 - 35y/4) + 5y = 126
-35y/4 + 5y = 126 - 714/4

note:
-35y/4 = -8.75y
714/4 = 178.5

-8.75y + 5y = 126 - 178.5
-3.75y = -52.5
y = -52.5/-3.75
y = 14


x = 102/4 - 5y/4
x = 102/4 - 5(14)/4
x = 8

x = cost of senior citizen ticket = $8/ea
y = cost of student ticket = $14/ea

see i don't mind giving my points away..Can anyone help me solve this though for a brainlest and extra points?​
victus00 [196]

Answer:

a=17\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have 2 of the angles, we can find the third. The measure of the third angle is 45 degrees.

As this is the same measure as the other, that means that the side length will be the same.

Now was have two side lengths of 17 in a right triangle, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find a.

Recall that the pythagorean theorem states: a^2+b^2=c^2

In this case, a is 17, b is 17, and c is a

Knowing this, we can input our value into this formula and solve for a.

17^2+17^2=a^2\\\\289+289=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{578} \\\\a=17\sqrt{2}

A company has two types of machines, type R and type S. Operating at a constant rate, a machine of type R does a certain job in
kozerog [31]

Answer: C.  6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Time taken by Machine R to do the job = 36 hours

Time taken by Machine S to do the job = 18 hours

Let x be the number of each type of machine to do the job.

Then , according to the question the required equation will be :-

\dfrac{x}{36}+\dfrac{x}{18}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x(\dfrac{1}{36}+\dfrac{1}{18})=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{x}{12}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12}{2}=6

Hence, the number of machines of type R were used =6

f(x)=(x+a)/b

or bf(x)=x+a

let f(x)=y

by=x+a

flip x and y

bx=y+a

or y=bx-a

or f^{-1}(x)=bx-a

also g(x) is inverse of f(x)

bx-a=cx-d

so b=c,a=d

again let g(x)=y

y=cx-d

flip x and y

x=cy-d

cy=x+d

y=(x+d)/c

or g^{-1}(x)=(x+d)/c

also f(x) is inverse of g(x)

so (x+a)/b=(x+d)/c

so a=d,b=c

so in either case a=d,b=c

take b=c=1

a=d=2

f(x)=(x+2)/1=x+2

g(x)=1x-2=x-2

so f(x) and g(x) are two parallel lines f(x) with y- intercept=1 and slope 0

g(x) with y-intercept -2 and slope 0

if we take b=c=2,a=d=3

f(x)=(x+3)/2=x/2+3/2

g(x)=2x-3

here f(x) is of slope 1/2 and y-intercept 3/2

g(x) is of slope 2 and y intercept -3

part 3.

f(f(x))=g((x+a)/b)=c[(x+a)/b]-d=(c/b)(x+a)-d
