Solve the following system of equations algebraically and check. y=x^2+3x+4 y-x=7

1 answer:

5 0

Y=x^2+3x+4
y-x=7

x^2+3x+4-x=7
x^2+2x+4=7
(factor) x^2+2x-3=0
(x+3)(x-1)=0
X= -3 and X=1
(Plug x in for y)
Y= 1^2+3(1)+4
Y=8
(Check your answer on the second equation)
8-1=7
7=7 (Which is the solution)

roland Purchasing pottery supplies for pottery class he buys a portable pottery wheel for $382 modeling clay for $12 and a potte

Anon25 [30]

Hello!

First you have to find the total of the items he bought

382 + 12 + 6.14 = 400.14

Then you apply the tax rate

400.14 * 1.0825 = 433.15155

We round this to 433.15

The answer is $433.15

Hope this helps!

Please help im doing my girl friend work and i dont know not a thing

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

See below, please!

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a system of equations to model this problem. Let's consider the student's ticket as x, and y for the adult ticket.

So since the student ticket is $1.50, and adult is $4, we can set up the following equation: $1.5x+4y=5050$ , since they collected $5050 total.

We can set up another equation modeling the number of people who came to the game. This would be x+y=2200.

Solve this, and we get x= 1500 and y=700. So, they sold 1500 student tickets and 700 adult tickets.

Hope this helped!
