Let's say the cost of student tickets is x and the cost of adult tickets is y. Then:

(1) 12y + 6x = 138
(2) 5y + 11x = 100

If we rearrange equation (1) we get:
12y = 138 - 6x
Now divide each side by 12:
y = 11.5 - 0.5x

We can now substitute this into equation (2):

5(11.5 - 0.5x) + 11x = 100
57.5 - 2.5x + 11x = 100
8.5x = 42.5
x = 5, therefor the cost of a student ticket is $5.00

Which expression is equivalent to -1.3 - (-1.9)−1.3−(−1.9)minus, 1, point, 3, minus, left parenthesis, minus, 1, point, 9, right
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Choise B: -1.3+1.9

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you must remember the multiplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-

 

By definition, equivalent expression have the same value.

Then, you can find an equivalent expression to the expression provided in the exercise by simplifying it.

So, given:

-1.3 - (-1.9)

To simplify it, you can distribute the negative that is located outside of the parentheses (in order to eliminate the parentheses).

Applying this procedure, you get the following equivalent expression:

-1.3 - (-1.9)=-1.3+1.9

Therefore, as you can notice, the expression obtained matches with the one shown in Choice B.

Select Exponential growth or Exponential decay for each function.
Lena [83]

Answer:

f(x)=(1.023) ⋅ 3^x  Growth

f(x)=3 ⋅ (0.072)^x      Decay

f(x)=4 ⋅ (0.035)^x      Decay

f(x)=2 ⋅ (1.34)^x         Growth

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function at its heart has a base number of rate. If the rate is less than 1, then the function decays. If the base number or rate is greater than 1, then the function grows and increase.

f(x)=(1.023) ⋅ 3^x Rate 3 -  Growth

f(x)=3 ⋅ (0.072)^x      Rate 0.072 - Decay

f(x)=4 ⋅ (0.035)^x      Rate 0.035 - Decay

f(x)=2 ⋅ (1.34)^x         Rate 1.34 - Growth
