The price of one adult ticket is $ 11 and the price of one student ticket is $ 11

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that , Mofor’s school is selling tickets to the annual dance competition.  

Let the cost of one adult ticket be $m and the cost of one student tickets be $n.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 7 adult tickets and 6 tickets for a total of $143.  

\text { Then, } 7 \times \text { cost of one adult ticket }+6 \times \text { cost of one student ticket }=\$ 143

7m + 6n = 143 ------- eqn (1)

The school took in $187 on the second day by selling 4 adult tickets and 13 student tickets.  

\text { Then, } 4 \times \text { cost of one adult ticket}+13 \times \text { cost of one student ticket}=\$ 187

4m + 13n = 187  ------ eqn (2)

We have to find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a student ticket.

Now, let us solve the equations.

Multiply eqn 1 by 4

28m + 24n = 572  ----- eqn 3

Multiply eqn 2 by 7

28m + 91n = 1309  ---- eqn 4

Now subtract eqn 4 from eqn 3

28m + 24n = 572

28m + 91n = 1309

(- )--------------------------------------

– 67n = - 737

67n = 737

n = 11

Plug in n = 11 in eqn 1

7m + 66 = 143

7m = 143 – 66

m = 11

Hence, the cost of one adult ticket is $ 11 and cost of one student ticket is $11

Find the derivative of the function at P 0 in the direction of A. ​f(x,y,z) = 3 e^x cos(yz)​, P0 (0, 0, 0), A = - i + 2 j + 3k
Alik [6]

The derivative of f(x,y,z) at a point p_0=(x_0,y_0,z_0) in the direction of a vector \vec a=a_x\,\vec\imath+a_y\,\vec\jmath+a_z\,\vec k is

\nabla f(x_0,y_0,z_0)\cdot\dfrac{\vec a}{\|\vec a\|}

We have

f(x,y,z)=3e^x\cos(yz)\implies\nabla f(x,y,z)=3e^x\cos(yz)\,\vec\imath-3ze^x\sin(yz)\,\vec\jmath-3ye^x\sin(yz)\,\vec k

and

\vec a=-\vec\imath+2\,\vec\jmath+3\,\vec k\implies\|\vec a\|=\sqrt{(-1)^2+2^2+3^2}=\sqrt{14}

Then the derivative at p_0 in the direction of \vec a is

3\,\vec\imath\cdot\dfrac{-\vec\imath+2\,\vec\jmath+3\,\vec k}{\sqrt{14}}=-\dfrac3{\sqrt{14}}
