Answer:

\large \boxed{\$9.00}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p = the original price of the ticket

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{ Price before discount - discount} & = & \text{sale price}\\p - 0.15p & = & 7.65\\0.85p & = & 7.65\\p & = & \dfrac{7.65 }{0.85}\\\\& = & \mathbf{9.00}\\\end{array}\\\text{The original price of the ticket was $\large \boxed{\mathbf{\$9.00}}$}

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}9.00 - 0.15(9.00) & = & 7.65\\9.00 - 1.35 & = & 7.65\\7.65 & = & 7.65\\\end{array}

OK.

Now divide the total cost of the bus by 100 people:

2700 / 100 = 27

It will cost $27 per person.

Evaluate the definite integral using the graph of f(x)<br> (Image included)
Tanya [424]

a) The first integral corresponds to the area under y = f(x) on the interval [0, 3], which is a right triangle with base 3 and height 5, hence the integral is

\displaystyle \int_0^3 f(x) \, dx = \frac12 \times 3 \times 5 = \boxed{\frac{15}2}

b) The integral is zero since the areas under the curve over [3, 4] and [4, 5] are equal but opposite in sign. In other words, on the interval [3, 5], f(x) is symmetric and odd about x = 4, so

\displaystyle \int_3^5 f(x) \, dx = \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx + \int_4^5 f(x) \, dx = \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx - \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx = \boxed{0}

c) The integral over [5, 9] is the negative of the area of a rectangle with length 9 - 5 = 4 and height 5, so

\displaystyle \int_5^9 f(x) \, dx = -4\times5 = -20

Then by linearity, we have

\displaystyle \int_0^9 f(x) \, dx = \left\{\int_0^3 + \int_3^5 + \int_5^9\right\} f(x) \, dx = \frac{15}2 + 0 - 20 = \boxed{-\frac{25}2}
