Say the number of adult tickets is x. That means the number of student tickets is 71 less, making it x - 71.

We can add the number of student and adult tickets, because we know their sum is 479.

x + x - 71 = 479

Now, we solve for x.

2x - 71 = 479

2x = 550

x = 275

So, there were 275 adult tickets sold.

Given g(x) = x² - 6x - 16, which statement is true?
inn [45]

The correct choice of this question with the given polynomial is <em>"The zeros are </em>-2<em> and </em>8<em>, because the factors of g are (x + </em>2<em>) and (x - </em>8<em>)"</em>. (Correct choice: H)

<h3>How to analyze a second orden polynomial with constant coefficients</h3>

In this case we have a second order polynomial of the form <em>x² - (r₁ + r₂) · x + r₁ · r₂</em>, whose solution is <em>(x - r₁) · (x - r₂)</em> and where <em>r₁</em> and <em>r₂</em> are the roots of the polynomial, which can be real or complex numbers but never both according the fundamental theorem of algebra.

If we know that <em>g(x) =</em> <em>x² -</em> 6 <em>· x -</em> 16, then the <em>factored</em> form of the expression is <em>g(x) = (x - </em>8<em>) · (x + </em>2<em>)</em>. Hence, the correct choice of this question with the given polynomial is <em>"The zeros are </em>-2<em> and </em>8<em>, because the factors of g are (x + </em>2<em>) and (x - </em>8<em>)"</em>. \blacksquare
