The ratio of adult to student starts out being 140/210.

Both of these numbers are divisible by 10 so the first thing that happens is that you divide top and bottom by 10

140 ÷10 = 14

210 ÷10 = 21

14: 2 * 7

21:3 * 7

So both 14 and 21 are divisible by 7

14÷7 = 2

21÷7 = 3

The ratio is 2 / 3

Answer: For every 2 adults there are 3 students.

adult tickets / student tickets

140/210 can be simplified to 14/21

14/21 can be simplifed to 2/3

3. Consider the functions f(x) = x2 + 10x – 5, g(x) = 8x + 1, and h(x) = 3x – 4. List the functions from least to greatest value
weeeeeb [17]
<u>x = 3</u>
f(x) = x²+ 10x - 5
f(3) = (3)² + 10(3) - 5
f(3) = 9 + 30 - 5
f(3) = 39 - 5
f(3) = 34

g(x) = 8x + 1
g(3) = 8(3) + 1
g(3) = 25

h(x) = 3x - 4
h(3) = 3(3) - 4
h(3) = 9 - 4
h(3) = 5

<u>x = 6
</u>f(x) = x² + 10x - 5
f(6) = (6)² + 10(6) - 5
f(6) = 36 + 60 - 5
f(6) = 96 - 5
f(6) = 91

g(x) = 8x + 1
g(6) = 8(6) + 1
g(6) = 48 + 1
g(6) = 49

h(x) = 3x - 4
h(6) = 3(6) - 4
h(6) = 18 - 4
h(6) = 14

I would explain to someone that you don't need to do any calculations to know the order of the functions when x is equal to 15 by knowing that f(x) is equal to 370, g(x) is equal to 121, and h(x) is equal to 41 to know that it is easy finding the function of x without calculating the answer.
