A + s = 456........a = 456 - s
3.5a + s = 1131

3.5(456 - s) + s = 1131
1596 - 3.5s + s = 1131
-3.5s + s = 1131 - 1596
-2.5s = - 465
s = -465/-2.5
s = 186 <====== student tickets sold

a + s = 456
a + 186 = 456
a = 456 - 186
a = 270 <==== adult tickets sold

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

1,041.9feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the rocket expressed as

y = -16x² + 245x + 104

At maximum height, dy/dx = 0

dy/dx = -32x+245

0 = -32x+245

32x = 245

x = 245/32

x = 7.65625

Get the maximum height

Recall that;

y = -16x² + 245x + 104

Substitute the value of x;

y = -16(7.65625)² + 245(7.65625) + 104

y = -937.890625 + 1,875.78125 + 104

y = 1,041.890625feet

Hcne the maximum height to the nearest foot is 1,041.9feet
