There are 83 full price and 140 half-price admissions.

There are 83 full price and 140 half-price admissions.

Two equations needed : x + y = 223 and 5x + 2.5y = 765

Use the first equation, x + y = 223 and rearrange it to fit the problem and substitute : y = 223 - x

5x + 2.5(223 - x) = 765

5x + 557.5 - 2.5x = 765

2.5x + 557.5 = 765

2.5x = 765 - 557.5

2.5x = 207.5

2.5x ÷ 2.4 = 207.5 ÷ 2.5

x = 83

_______________________


Now just subtract 223 and 83 to get the others:

223 - 83 = 140

b) x^2 - 10x + 9 = (x - 1)(x - 9)

c) x^2 - 16x + 64 = (x - 8)^2

If the angle of a sector measures 60°, what fraction of the circle is the sector?
maks197457 [2]

The angle of the sector is also equal to the arc measure of the circle. This is because a sector is made up of two radii of a circle.

A circle is 360 degrees.

60 / 360 = 1/6

The sector is 1/6 of the circle.

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Set of data in terms of ordered pairs represents a function when output value of each input value is different.

Option A

Since, for every value of x there is a different value of y, it's a function.

Option B

In each ordered pair, for every value of x there is a different value of y.

Therefore, it's a function.

Option C

From the given graph, for every value of x there is a different value of y.

Therefore, it's a function.

Option D

From the given set of ordered pairs we find for x = 1 there are two values of y (y = 4 and 3).

Therefore, the given set of ordered pairs doesn't represent a function.

Option D is the answer.
