Answer:

  • 455 adult tickets
  • 884 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then 1339-a is the number of student tickets sold. The revenue collected was ...

  5a + 1(1339-a) = 3159

  4a = 1820 . . . . . . subtract 1339, collect terms

  a = 455 . . . . . . . . divide by 4; adult tickets sold

  (1339-a) = 884 . . . . student tickets sold

455 adult tickets and 884 student tickets were sold.

Mischa wrote the quadratic equation 0 = –x2 + 4x – 7 in standard form. What is the value of c in her equation
Zolol [24]

Mischa wrote the quadratic equation 0 = –x2 + 4x – 7 in standard form

The standard form of quadratic equation is

y= ax^2 + bx + c

When y=0 then the standard equation becomes

0= ax^2 + bx + c

Now we compare the given equation 0 = -x^2 + 4x - 7  with 0= ax^2 + bx + c and find the value of a, b,c

-x^2 can be written as -1x^2

0= ax^2 + bx + c

0 = -1x^2 + 4x - 7

a= -1 , b=4  and c=-7

The value of c is -7
