The answer is -2.21428571429
The ticket price which will maximize the student's council is: C. $3.10.
<h3>What is price?</h3>
Price can be defined as an amount of money which is primarily set by the seller of a product, and it must be paid by a buyer to the seller, so as to enable the acquisition of this product.
Based on the information provided about Valley High School student council, we can logically deduce the following data:
- Total number of students = 420 students.
- Lowest ticket price = $2.00.
- Increase in ticket price = $0.20.
- Attendance = 20 fewer students
<h3>How to determine the ticket price?</h3>
Mathematically, the equation which model the profit is given by:
Profit = price × number of tickets sold
P(x) = (2 + 0.2x)(420 - 20x)
P(x) = 840 + 84x - 40x - 4x²
P(x) = -4x² + 44x + 840.
For any quadratic equation with a parabolic curve, the axis of symmetry is given by:
Xmax = -b/2a
Xmax = -44/2(-4)
Xmax = -44/-8.
Xmax = 5.5
Ticket price for maximum profit is given by:
Ticket price = 2 + 0.2x
Ticket price = 2 + 0.2(5.5)
Ticket price = $3.10.

225 3x5 is 15 and to the power of 2 is 15x15 so multiply and you get 225 hope it helps
the additive inverse of -8 is 8
to find the additive inverse you just have to change the sign of the number
<span>speed = distance/time
total time is 8 hours
outgoing speed is 160 km per hour,
so time = d/160
</span><span>returning speed is 240 km per hour,
so time = d/240
d/160 + d/240 = 8
3d/480 + 2d/480 = 8
5d/480 = 8
5d =480 (8)
5d = 3840
d=3840/5
d=768
answer: so the distance is 768 km</span>
