These are the equations you need - a+k=total, 12a+6k=15480

Set up two equations: one for the amount of money collected, and one for the number of tickets sold (people who attended).

Let a= adults
Let s= students

Money equation:
15480=12a+6s

Ticket equation:
1500=a+s

Now just solve the system of equations for s:
15480-12a=6s\\ \frac{15480}{6} - \frac{12a}{6} =s\\ 2580-2a=s\\ 1500=a+s\\ 1500=a+(2580-2a)\\ 1500=-a+2580\\ 1500-2580=-a\\ -1080=-a\\ 1080=a\\ \\ 1500=a+s\\ 1500=1080+s 420=s

6. Multiply: i) 3x (5x+8y)
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x(5x+8y)=15x^2+24xy

4x(3x^2+5x-7)=12x^3+20x^2-28x

(3x+4y)(2x-7y)=6x^2+8xy-21xy-28y^2=6x^2-13xy-28y^2

(2-3a)(2a^2-3a+7)=4a^2-6a+14-6a^3+9a^2-21a=-6a^3+13a^2-27a+14

Aplha=105

Step-by-step explanation:

A broker charges customers a fixed fee of £150 plus 5.50% of the amount of all investments made. If a customer invests £40 000 t
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Total payable brokerage = £2350

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fixed fee charged by broker = £150

Percent of fee charged = 5.50%

Amount invested by customer = £40,000

Fee charged = \frac{5.50}{100}*40000

Fee charged = 5.50 * 400 = £2200

Total brokerage payable = £150 + £2200 = £2350

Hence,

Total payable brokerage = £2350

vivado [14]

Answer:

They need to sell 9400 pies to reach the break-order point

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the break-order point

- The break-order point is the point at which total cost and total

  revenue are equal

∴ The total cost = The total revenue

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The equation of the total cost is y = 0.65x + 1410

∵ The revenue equation is y = 0.8x

- To find the break-order point equate the two equations

∴ 0.65x + 1410 = 0.8x

- Subtract 0.65x from both sides

∴ 1410 = 0.8x - 0.65x

∴ 0.15x = 1410

- Divide both sides by 0.15

∴ x = 1410/0.15 = 9400

∵ x is the number of pies

* They need to sell 9400 pies to reach the break-order point
