The answer is all of the students are members of the frequent visitor program.

Let x be the number of students that are members of the frequent visitor program.
Let y be the number of students that are not members of the frequent visitor program.
There are in total 19 students: x + y = 19

x students will pay $11, y students will pay $13 for the ticket. Totally, it will be $209: 11x + 13y = 209

Now, we have the system of two equations:
x + y = 19
11x + 13y = 209
____________
Use the method of substitution:
x + y = 19 
⇒ x = 19 - y
____________
11(19-y) + 13y = 209
11·19 - 11·y + 13y = 209
209 - 11y + 13y = 209
____________
Rearange:
13y - 11y = 209 - 209
2y = 0
⇒ y = 0

Since y = 0, x = 19:
x + y = 19
x + 0 = 19
x = 19
This means that all of the students in the group are members of the frequent visitor program.

20 POINTS<br><br> Which of the following tables does NOT represent a function?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a function, one x-value must have just one y-value assigned to it. So in short, C is the only table that does not represent a function because it has two values of Y (-3, and -1) for one value of x (1).

What do I have to major in to become an astronomer and approximately how long would I have to stay in college?
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Something like physics, you want to not have such a specific major because you can always change your mind later on. It might take around 10ish years, but that is a rough estimate.

An isosceles trapezoid has bases of lengths 6 and 8 and a height of 16. Find the area.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles trapezoid, the opposite sides are equal.

The formula for determining the area of a trapezoid is expressed as

Area = 1/2(a + b)h

Where

a and b are the length of The bases are the 2 sides of the trapezoid which are parallel with one another.

h represents the height of the trapezoid.

From the information given,

a = 6

b = 8

height = 16

Therefore,

Area of trapezoid = 1/2(6 + 8)16

= 1/2 × 14 × 16 = 112 square units
