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 .

Determine whether the equation is exact. If it​ is, then solve it. e Superscript t Baseline (7 y minus 3 t )dt plus (2 plus 7 e
umka21 [38]

Answer:

F(t,y)=(2+7e^t)y+3(1-t)e^t +C

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following differential equation:

e^t(7y-3t)dt+(2+7e^t)dy=0

This equation can be written as:

Mdt+Ndy=0

where

M=e^t(7y-3t)\\\\N=(2+7e^t)

If the differential equation is exact, it is necessary the following:

\frac{\partial M}{\partial y}=\frac{\partial N}{\partial t}

Then, you evaluate the partial derivatives:

\frac{\partial M}{\partial y}=\frac{\partial}{\partial t}e^t(7y-3t)\\\\\frac{\partial M}{\partial t}=7e^t\\\\\frac{\partial N}{\partial t}=\frac{\partial}{\partial t}(2+7e^t)\\\\\frac{\partial N}{\partial t}=7e^t\\\\\frac{\partial M}{\partial t} = \frac{\partial N}{\partial t}

The partial derivatives are equal, then, the differential equation is exact.

In order to obtain the solution of the equation you first integrate M or N:

F(t,y)=\int N \partial y = (2 +7e^t)y+g(t)        (1)

Next, you derive the last equation respect to t:

\frac{\partial F(t,y)}{\partial t}=7ye^t+g'(t)

however, the last derivative must be equal to M. From there you can calculate g(t):

\frac{\partial F(t,y)}{\partial t}=M=(7y-3t)e^t=7ye^t+g'(t)\\\\g'(t)=-3te^t\\\\g(t)=-3\int te^tdt=-3[te^t-\int e^tdt]=-3[te^t-e^t]

Hence, by replacing g(t) in the expression (1) for F(t,y) you obtain:

F(t,y)=(2+7e^t)y+3(1-t)e^t +C

where C is the constant of integration
