Answer:

So, 89 Adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we first name our variables, say, a for number of adult tickets, and c for child tickets.

Then we write our system of equations, first the total $ sale:

5.2c + 8.3a = 1087.10

Then we write the 2nd equation, the total number of tickets:

c + a = 156

Now, we can solve the system:

We do have different methods, let's to by subsitution.

make some change to the 2nd equation, to make c the subject: c = 156 - a

Now we plug that into the 1st equation:

5.2(156 - a) + 8.3a = 1087.10

811.2 - 5.2a + 8.3a = 1087.10

811.2 + 3.1a = 1087.10

3.1a = 275.9

a = 89

There are two functions that can be used to describe the percent of people 25 years and older who have completed at least high s
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

g(15)=93.8\%

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of years since 2008,

g(x) ----> the percent of people 25 years and older who have completed at least high school

we know that

g(x)=0.008x^2+0.42x+87.5

so

For x=15 years since 2008

substitute

g(15)=0.008(15)^2+0.42(15)+87.5=93.8\%

That means

In the year 2023 (2008+15) the percent of people 25 and older completing at least high school will be 93.8%
