Remark
What this is telling you to do is put 3x + 3 in the question wherever there was an x to start with.
Solution
f(x) = -3x + 4
f(3x + 3) = - 3(3x + 3) + 4
f(3x + 3) = -3*3x + (-3)*(3) + 4
f(3x + 3) = - 9x - 9 + 4
f(3x + 3) = -9x - 5 <<<<< Answer
The answer is D!
hopefully this helps
So we have to find b we are going to try to isosiate b
4b - 3 > -1 now we are going to isosiate the b so add 3 from both side and get 4b > 2
Total tickets sold = 800
Total revenue = $3775
Ticket costs:
$3 per child,
$8 per adult,
$5 per senior citizen.
Of those who bought tickets, let
x = number of children
y = number of adults
z = senior citizens
Therefore
x + y + z = 800 (1)
3x + 8y + 5z = 3775 (2)
Twice as many children's tickets were sold as adults. Therefore
x = 2y (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
2y + y + z = 800, or
3y + z = 800, or
z = 800 - 3y (4)
3(2y) + 8y + 5z = 3775, or
14y + 5z = 3775 (5)
Substtute (4) nto (5).
14y + 5(800 - 3y) = 3775
-y = -225
y = 225
From (4), obtain
z = 800 - 3y = 125
From (3), obtain
x = 2y = 450
Answer:
The number of tickets sold was:
450 children,
225 adults,
125 senior citizens.
X= 7/93 or roughly 0.07526...
