4p - 9 = -193
4p = -193 = 9
4p = -184
p = -184/4
p = -46
Answer:
Number of adult tickets sold= 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Adults tickets= $15
Student tickets= $10
Number of tickets sold= 150
Total sales= $2,000
<u>First, we determine the systems of equations:</u>
15*x + 10*y= 2,000
x + y = 150
x= number of adults tickets sold
y= number of students tickets sold
<u>Now, we isolate x in one equation, and substitute it in the other one:</u>
x= 150 - y
15*(150 - y) + 10y = 2,000
2,250 - 15y + 10y = 2,000
250 = 5y
50= y
x= 150 - 50
x= 100
<u>Prove: </u>
15*100 + 10*50= 2,000
100 + 50 = 150
<span>Answer:
Roma Sherry drove 330 miles from her hometown to Tucson. During her return trip, she was able to increase her speed by 11 mph. If her return trip took 1 hour less time, find her original speed and her speed returning home.
:
Let s = original speed
then
(s+11) = return speed
:
Write a time equation: Time = distance%2Fspeed
:
Original time = return time + 1 hr
330%2Fs = 330%2F%28%28s%2B11%29%29 + 1
:
Multiply equation by s(s+11) and you have:
330(s+11) = 330s + s(s+11)
:
330s + 3630 = 330s + s^2 + 11s
:
0 = 330s - 330s + s^2 + 11s - 3630
:
A quadratic equation:
s^2 + 11s - 3630 = 0
Factor this to:
(s + 66)(s - 55) = 0
Positive solution
s = 55 mph is original speed.
:
Find the time
330/55 = 6 hr, original time
and
330/66 = 5 hrs, faster time; confirms our solution.</span>
#1 answer is D and #2 answer is D also
4n+8=2(n+6)
Now isolate the n on one side of the equation:
4n+8=2n+12(distribution of the 2)
4n=2n+4(combine like terms)
2n=4(combine like variables)
N=2(isolate the n)
The answer is 2
Good luck!
