The cost of a ticket to the circus is $14.00 for children and $32.00 for adults. On a certain day, attendance at the circus was
1 answer:
400 children and 600 adults bought tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost of one child ticket = $14
Cost of one adult ticket = $32
Total attendance = 1000
Revenue generated = $24800
Let,
x be the number of children.
y be the number of adults.
According to given statement;
x+y=1000 Eqn 1
14x+32y=24800 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 14
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 18
Putting y=800 in Eqn 1
400 children and 600 adults bought tickets.

Answer: B
You can find slope by using the slope formula. Because we are already given two coordinate points, we can use that to find our slope. The slope formula is . This also refers to
or 10/-4 or -5/2. Any coordinate with the x-value as 0 means that that coordinate is the y-intercept. Because (0,5) has 0 as its x-value, the y-intercept is 5.
Answer:
A linear function is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
An exponential equation is written as:
y = A*(r)^x
Where A is the initial quantity and r is the rate of growth.
If a and A are both positives, the similar characteristic of both types of functions is that as x increases, then the value of y will also increase. Then both functions are increasing functions.
They are different in how they increase, while a linear function increases at a constant rate, an exponential function increases slow at the beginning and really fast as x increases, as you can see in the image below where we compare the two types of functions, the green one is the linear function, and the blue one is the exponential function.
