Adult tickets cost $10 each and student tickets cost $6 each.

Given:
Kyle's family bought 4 adult tickets and 2 student tickets for $52
Maria's family bought 3 adult tickets and 5 student tickets for 60.

Let us assign x as the adult tickets and y as the students tickets

Kyle's family:  4x + 2y = 52
Maria's family: 3x + 5y = 60

Let us find the value of x using Kyle's equation:
4x + 2y = 52
4x         = 52 - 2y
  x         = (52 - 2y)/4
  x         = 13 - y/2
Substitute the value of x in Maria's equation to find y.
3x + 5y = 60
3(13 - y/2) + 5y = 60
39 - 3y/2 + 5y = 60
     - 3y/2 + 5y = 60 - 39
     - 3y/2 + 5y = 21
  2(-3y/2 + 5y) = 2(21)
     -3y + 10y = 42
               7y = 42
           7y/7 = 42/7
                y = 6

x = 13 - y/2
x = 13 - 6/2
x = 13 - 3
x = 10

To check:
Kyle's Family                      Maria's Family
4x + 2y = 52                        3x + 5y = 60
4(10) + 2(6) = 52                  3(10) + 5(6) = 60
40 + 12 = 52                        30 + 30 = 60
52 = 52                                 60 = 60

Six students in Mrs. Lola’s class like strawberry pie; this represents 30% of the total class.
natta225 [31]

Answer: Total class = 20 students

Step-by-step explanation: 30/6 = 5, which means that 1 student would make up 5 percent of the class.

100/5 = 20, which represents the total amount of students in that classroom because 5*20 is 100 and 5 percent represents 1 person of the class

What is 13.5=m+2.1 equal and how to solve
Greeley [361]

Answer:

m= 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

13.5= m+2.1

Subtract 2.1 to both sides

13.5= m+2.1

-2.1         -2.1

11.4= m

(PLEASE HELP) The table below - does it represent an exponential function?
Aliun [14]
Short answer: I don't know, but that doesn't mean I can't give you something that you can decide for yourself.
y = 4*2^(2n - 2) is the pattern.
Go for broke. Try n = 4. You should get 256. Let's try it.
y = 4 * 2^(2*4 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^(8 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^6
y = 4 * 64
y = 256 yup it works.

The other end is just as important. Suppose n = 1
Then y = 4 * 2^(2*1 - 2) = 4 * 2^0 = 4*1 = 4 Both work.

If this formula is correct, we can abbreviate it to make your task easier.
y = 4 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^2 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^(2n - 2 + 2)
y = 2^(2n) Now try the two end points again.

n = 4
y = 2^(2*4)
y  =  2^8
y = 256

n = 1
y = 2^(2*1)
y = 2^2
y = 4 which again checks.

so y = 2^(2n) I think is an exponential function.
Sorry my explanation is so long.

A department store sells a pair of shoes with an 87% markup. If the store bought the pair of shoes for $55.25, what is the selli
kolbaska11 [484]
Markup means they sell it for that percentage more than they bought it for. First let's calculate how much they will mark it up for:

\sf 55.25\cdot 87\%

Convert 87% into a decimal(87/100):

\sf 55.25\cdot 0.87

Multiply:

\sf\approx 48

This is how much they'll mark it up, now let's add it to how much they bought it for to find out the selling price:

\sf 48+55.25\approx\boxed{\sf \$ 103}
