<u>ANSWER:</u>

The price of senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of child ticket is $7.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, first day of sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 9 child tickets for a total of $75.  

The school took in $67 on the second day by selling 8 senior citizen tickets and 5 child tickets.  

We need to find what is the price each of one senior citizen tickets and one child tickets.

Let, the price of senior citizen ticket be "x" and price of child ticket be "y"

Then according to the given information,

3x + 9y = 75

x + 3y = 25  [by cancelling the common term 3.

x = 25 – 3y ---- (1)

And, 8x + 5y = 67 ---- (2)

Substitute (1) in (2)

8(25 – 3y) + 5y = 67

200 – 24y + 5y = 67

5y – 24y = 67 – 200

-19y = -133

y = \frac{133}{19}

y = 7

Now substitute y value in (1)

x = 25 – 3(7)

x = 25 – 21  = 4

Hence, the price of senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of child ticket is $7.

Which Graph Represents The solution set of this inequality?
Alex

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In order to determine the inequality, you must first solve the solution set to determine what x is less than.

So you would do this:

1 + 2x < 9             Subtract 1

2x < 8                  Divide by 2

x < 4

2. Next, you need to understand the difference between an open circle and a closed circle shown on the solution sets.

An open circle is equal to the following inequalities:

<, >

A Closed circle represents inequalities in situations such as:

greater than or equal to, or less than or equal to

3. Because the inequality above represents only less than or greater than the inequality sets should have an open circle being used.

Since x is less than 4 it should be moving to the left of the line inequality set.

Determine the value of x. Round answer to the nearest hundredth. thank you to whoever helps! Will Be Marked as BRAINLIEST!
Finger [1]

Answer:

<h3>34.61</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram;

Hypotenuse = 81.9

Angle of elevation = 65degrees

Required

The value of x (Adjacent)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

cos theta = adjacent/Hypotenuse

cos 65 = x/81.9

x = 81.9cos65

x = 81.9(0.4226)

x = 34.61

Hence the value of x to the nearest hundredth is 34.61

How do you simplify 0.1m x <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%5Cpi" id="TexFormula1" title="2\pi" alt="2\pi" align="absmiddle"
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

  0.2π m

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming your "x" is a multiplication symbol, form the product of the numerical constants.

  = 0.2mπ

If m represents units of meters, it can be placed last:

  = 0.2π m

If you want an approximate value, use an appropriate approximation of π.

  ≈ 0.628319 m
