the school that imani goes to is selling tickets to a spring musical. on the first day of ticket sales the school sold 8 adult t
ickets and 5 child tickets for a total of $108 the school took in $67 on the second day by selling one adult ticket and 14 child tickets find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a child ticket?
1 answer:
If we let x and y represent the prices of adult and child tickets, respectively, then we can write two equations based on the daily sales.
8x +5y = 108
x +14y = 67
A graphing calculator shows the solution of these equations to be
(x, y) = (11, 4)
The price of an adult ticket is $11.
The price of a child ticket is $4.
8x +5y = 108
x +14y = 67
A graphing calculator shows the solution of these equations to be
(x, y) = (11, 4)
The price of an adult ticket is $11.
The price of a child ticket is $4.

Check the picture below.
based on the equation, if we set y = 0, we'd end up with 0 = 0.5(x-3)(x-k).
and that will give us two x-intercepts, at x = 3 and x = k.
since the triangle is made by the x-intercepts and y-intercepts, then the parabola most likely has another x-intercept on the negative side of the x-axis, as you see in the picture, so chances are "k" is a negative value.
now, notice the picture, those intercepts make a triangle with a base = 3 + k, and height = y, where "y" is on the negative side.
let's find the y-intercept by setting x = 0 now,
now, we can plug those values on A = (1/2)bh,
Answer:
24/35, about 69%
Step-by-step explanation:
The data given can be put into a 2-way table (attached). It shows that 0.48 of all calls were answered and resulted in a mortgage application. Altogether, 0.70 of all calls resulted in a mortgage application. Thus the conditional probability of interest is ...
p(spoke to attendant | applied for a mortgage) = p(spoke & applied)/p(applied)
= 0.48/0.70 = 24/35 ≈ 69%
