Answer:

Josie bought 40 adult tickets and 32 children tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=72

22x+10y=1200

-----------------------

x=72-y

22(72-y)+10y=1200

1584-22y+10y=1200

1584-12y=1200

12y=1584-1200

12y=384

y=384/12=32

x+32=72

x=72-32=40

x=40, y=32. (40, 32)

The function y = -16x2 + 1500 gives a parachute jumper's height y in feet
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so the question is asking about the time from 1500 feet to 1100 feet.  How long did they fall, w/o a parachute.    aka   "freefall"   so,   at 1500 feet the jumper is really at time zero.   so, plug in to the formula

1100 = -16x^{2} +1500  

( x represents seconds so i'll change it to t so we know it's time )  

1100 = -16t^{2} + 1500

now we can solve for t  , to see how long the jumper falls

-400 = - 16t^{2}      ( subtracting 1500 from both sides of equation )

25 = t^{2}      ( dividing both sides by  -16 )

oh.. look at how nice that turns out.. :)

\sqrt{25} = t  ( take the square root on both sides )

5 = t    

the jumper fell for 5 seconds to get to 1100 feet
