The answer would be: <span>C. -5 - (-14)

When determining the distance between two points, you need to subtract the second point from the first point. In this case, -14 will be the x1 and -5 will be x2.
Then the distance would be: x2-x1= -5- (-14)= 9

This result says that if you want to move from -14 to -5 you have to move 9 step to the right.</span>

Adult tickets to a basketball game cost $5. Student tickets cost $1. A total of $3,169 was collected on the sale of 1,325 ticket
eimsori [14]

Answer:

461 adults and 864 students

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set-up a system of equations to find the number of adults. We know students and adults attended. We will let s be the number of students and a be the number of adults. Since 1,325 tickets were purchased, then s+a=1325.

We also know that a total of $3,169 was collected and adult tickets cost $5 each and students cost $1 each. We can write 1s+5a=3169.

We will solve by substituting one equation into the other. We first solve the first equation for s which is s=1325-a. Substitute s=1325-a into 1s+5a=3169. Simplify and isolate the variable a.

1(1325-a)+5a=3169

1325-a+5a=3169

1325+4a=3169

1325-1325+4a=3169-1325

4a=1844

a=461

This means that 461 adults attended and 864 students attended since 864+461=1325.

16. Peter works part time for 3 hours every day and Cindy works part time for 2 hours every day.
Ber [7]

Answer:

Part A)

  • 4.50 × 3 > 4.50 × 2
  • 13.5 0 > 9

Part B)

  • r ≥ 7

Explanation:

1) The earnings are calculated multiplying the number of hours by the hourly rate.

2) The hourly rate of both Peter and Cindy is the same: $ 4.50 / hour

3) Let the variable used for computing the number of hours be h.

4) The number of hours Peter works every day is 3 hours, so, using the letter P to name Peter's earnings, the expression to calculate his earnings is:

  • P = 4.50 × 3

5) Similarly, the expression to calculate Cindy's earnings would be:

  • C = 4.50 × 2

<u>Answering part A)</u>

<u>Y</u>ou have to write an inequality to compare Peter's and Cindy's earnings:

  • 4.50 × 3 > 4.50 × 2
  • 13.5 0 > 9

This is, the earnings of Peter are greater than the earnings of Cindy.

<u>Part B)</u>,

You have to write an inequality to calculate Cindy's per-hour income so that she earns at least $ 14 a day.

  • Here, C ≥ 14, because the sign ≥ means greater than or equal to, meaning the the earnings are greater than or equal to 14.

  • Thus, since she works 2 hours per day, the inequality becomes 2 × r ≥ $ 14, where r is the per-hour income.

  • To solve it follow these steps:

Given: 2r ≥ 14

Divide both sides by 2: r ≥ 14 / 2

Simplify: r ≥ 7

That means that Cindy's per-hour income should be at least $7 and hour so that she earns $14 a day.

A family has traveled 114 miles of a planned trip. This is 37% of the total distance they must travel on the trip. Find, correct
denis23 [38]

Answer:

The total distance they will travel on their trip is 308 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

114 miles is 37% = 0.37. How many mines are 100% = 1?

114 miles - 0.37

x miles - 1

0.37x = 114

x = \frac{114}{0.37}

x = 308.11

Rounding to the nearest mile

The total distance they will travel on their trip is 308 miles.

How many positive integers less than 100 have at least one digit that is a 9? (Let T be the set of positive integers less than 1
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T be the set of positive integers less than 100 with a 9 in the ten's place.

T = {90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99}

n(T) = 10

Let O be the set of positive integers less than 100 with a 9 in the one's place.

O = {9, 19, 29, 39, 49, 59, 69, 79, 89, 99}

n(O) = 10

The common element is 99.

T\cap O={99}

n(T\cap O)=1

The union of both sets is

n(T\cup O)=n(T)+n(O)+n(T\cap O)

n(T\cup O)=10+10-1

n(T\cup O)=19

Therefore, 19 positive integers are less than 100 those have at least one 9.
