I need some help with this question:  The MoviePlex theater sold 1,456 tickets.  The theater sold 6 times as many regular price

tickets as it sold discount tickets.  Earl says that the expression 1456 divided by 6 give the number of discount tickets.  Is Earl correct?  If not, write the correct expression.  Explain your answer.

Earl isn't correct: the number 1,456 represents the total number of tickets sold, rather than simply six times the number of tickets sold.

Let x= the discount ticket price

1456 = 6x + x
1456 = 7x
x = 28

28 discount tickets were sold. The total number of tickets sold is equal to both the number of discount tickets sold plus six times that number: 1,456 = 6x+ x. Solve for x.

1 point) Are the functions f,g, and h given below linearly independent? f(x)=e3x+cos(5x), g(x)=e3x−cos(5x), h(x)=cos(5x). If the
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Functions are linearly dependent (are not linearly independent.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that two functions f(x), g(x) and h(x) are said linearly independent on an interval I if the <em>only solution</em> to the equation

\alpha f(x)+\beta g(x)+\omega h(x)=0, \ \text{for all } x\in I

is the trivial one: α = 0, β = 0, ω = 0. If they are not linearly independent, they are called linearly dependent.

Now, let f(x), g(x) and h(x) be the functions:

f(x)=e^{3x}+\cos(5x),

g(x)=e^{3x}-\cos(5x),

h(x)=\cos(5x).

Then, letting α = 1, β= -1 and ω = -2, we see that:

\alpha f(x)+\beta g(x)+ \omega h(x)=e^{3x}+\cos(5x)-e^{3x}+\cos(5x)+2\cos(5x)=0.

Hence, the functions f(x), g(x) and h(x) are not linearly independent, or equivalently, are linearly dependent.

Kay [80]

I FOUND YOUR COMPLETE QUESTION IN OTHER SOURCES.

 PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.

 For this case the area is given by:

 A = (22 + x) * (28 + x) = 722

 Rewriting we have:

 616 + 22x + 28x + x ^ 2 = 722

 x ^ 2 + 50x + 616 - 722 = 0

 x ^ 2 + 50x - 106 = 0

 Solving the polynomial we have:

 x1 = 2.04

 x2 = -52.04

 We take the positive root:

 x = 2.04 inches:

 Answer:

 The width of the border to the nearest inch is:

 x = 2inches

Answer: 6x=42

Explanation: After the step 6x+6=36, it’ll equal 6x=30 because when you subtract the 6 on both sides, it’ll equal 30, revealing it’s actually 6x=30, with the conclusion of x=5.
