Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a= adult ticket
a= student ticket
5a+1s=2874
1a+1s=1246
Subtract the second equation from the first one
4a=1628
a=407
a+s=1246
407+s=1246
s=839
Answer:
0.4077
Step-by-step explanation:
It's important to use parenthesis to avoid confusion.
9^(2x) = 6
Use exponent properties:
(9^2)^x = 6
81^x = 6
Take log of both sides
ln(81^x) = ln(6)
Use log properties:
x ln(81) = ln(6)
Solve for x:
x = ln(6) / ln(81)
x ≈ 0.4077
Remark
One of the things you need to do is learn to read phrase by phrase.
What is the quotient of a number and 7? That meas you have a number, x, and it is divided by 7. What you do that the answer you get is the quotient.
x/7 is what you know so for. Now the first part says you take 12 away from that.
x/7 - 12 is what you have after doing that.
The result you get is - 2
x/7 - 12 = - 2 Add 12 to both sides
x/7 - 12 + 12 = - 2 + 12
x/7 = 10 Now multiply by 7
x = 10 *7
x = 70 <<< Answer the number is 70
-3(x-14)+9x=6x+24
-3x+42+9x=6x+24
-3x+9x-6x=-24-42
0=-18
