Answer:
General admissions sold: 880
Reserved seating sold: 256
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up equation:
Variable x = people who bought general admission
Variable y = people who bought reserved seating
x + y = 1136
5x + 7y = 6192
Isolate a variable in any equation:
Y = 1136 - x
Substitute the value of the variable in the other equation:
5x + 7(1136 - x) = 6192
5x + 7952 - 7x = 6192
-2x + 7952 = 6192
-2x = -1760
x = 880
Substitute the value of x in any equation:
880 + y = 1136
y = 256
Check your work:
880 + 256 = 1136
1136 = 1136
Correct!
5(880) + 7(256) = 6192
4400 + 1792 = 6192
6192 = 6192
Correct!
You can find the rate of change by taking it's derivative.
Answer:
Find the LCD of the first two, then the LCD of that and the third one.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do it by finding the LCD of two of the denominators, then the LCD of that and the third denominator.
Or, you can factor each of the denominators and find their LCM by multiplying the unique factors to their highest powers.
___
<u>Example:</u>
1/21 + 1/35 + 1/45
The LCD of 1/21 and 1/35 is (21·35)/5 = 105. The LCD of 1/105 and 1/45 is ...
(105·45)/15 = 315
__
Using factoring ...
- 21 = 3·7
- 35 = 5·7
- 45 = 3²·5
LCD = 3²·5·7 = 315
x equals negative 8 and negative 4
