Answer:

Price of a senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of a student ticket is $15 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the price a senior citizen ticket be x .

Let us assume that the price a student citizen ticket be y .

As given

The school that Jack goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance.

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 9 senior citizen tickets and 8 student tickets for a total of $156.

Equtaions becomes

9x + 8y = 156

As given

The school took in $163 on the second day by selling 7 senior citizen tickets and 9 student tickets.

Equations becomes

7x + 9y = 163

Multipy 9x + 8y = 156 by 9 .

81x + 72y = 1404

Multiply 7x + 9y = 163  by 8 .

56x + 72y = 1304

Subtracted 56x + 72y = 1304 from 81x + 72y = 1404 .

81x - 56x + 72y - 72y = 1404 - 1304

25x = 100

x = \frac{100}{25}

x = $ 4

Putting value of x in the 56x + 72y = 1304 .

56 × 4 + 72y = 1304

224 + 72y = 1304

72y  = 1304 - 224

72y = 1080

y = \frac{1080}{72}

y = $15

Therefore the price of a senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of a student ticket is $15 .

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4x + 3)(3x - 4)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

4x(3x - 4) + 3(3x - 4) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 12x² - 16x + 9x - 12 ← collect like terms

= 12x² - 7x - 12

The coefficient of the x- term is - 7 → B

Rick is on a bicycle trip. Every 444 days he bikes 230 \text{ km}230 km230, space, k, m.If Rick keeps this same pace for 161616
Katarina [22]
For this problem, we use the approach of ratio and proportion. Assuming that the given ratio of 444 days per 230 km is constant all throughout, we can determine the number of days or distance as long as one of the two is given. In this case, the solution is as follows:

444 days/230 km = 161616 days/distance
Distance = 83,720 km
