The answer you want is going to be A)
, because all you have to do is add the exponents which -4+-10 would be -14 so therefore the answer you want is going to be A) 
This is saying that ABC is conguent with LMN meaning all the sides are the same, making it safe to assume that AB is equal to LM. This also means that the equations for both are equal to each other
-3y + 10 = 2y + 15
-5y = 5
y = -1
Then to find AB you plug the -1 in for the y value
-3(-1) + 10 = 13
Knowing these 2 parts, the answer is A
The two inequalities formed will be:
One for ticket quantity:
x + y ≤ 600
One for funds generated via tickets:
5x + 7y ≥ 3500
Equating x to 330,
5(330) +7y ≥ 3500
y = 265
Checking if the other inequality holds true:
330 + 265 ≤ 600
595 ≤ 600
This inequality is still true so they can sell 265 tickets on the event day and cover their expenses.
Answer:
D. The McCarter's must make more than 10 visits to the pool for the pass to be a better deal.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I chose the option that seemed most likely. Once I chose D, I plugged in the answer to see if it actually worked.
10 x 7.5 =75 dollars + 50 (pass fee) = 125 dollars total.
10 x 12.5= 125 dollars.
Therefore, in order to get a deal off of the seasonal pass, the McCarter's would have to visit the pool more than 10 times. D.
You can solve this in two ways.
1. Graphical. Plot the graph for x between -5 and 1 (see attachement).
The vertex of the graph is the peak of the curve, which has the coordinates x=-2, y=-9.
2. Analytical. Calculate the derivative of the function f(x)

Solve the equation:

will give the solution x=-2.
Replace x=-2 in the f(x) function and you'll get the value of y:

You get the same answer: x=-2, y=-9
So the answer is
