A mathematical statement that uses an equal sign to say that two things are the same
For all points that lie on the y-axis, the x-coordinate is zero.
Answer:
113
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adult tickets sold =a
Let the number of student tickets sold =s
A total of 259 tickets were sold, therefore:
a+s=259
Adult tickets were sold for $24 each and student tickets were sold for $16 each.
Total Revenue = $5,312
Therefore:
24a+16s=5,312
We solve the two derived equations simultaneously.
From the first equation
a=259-s
Substitute a=259-s into 24a+16s=5,312
24(259-s)+16s=5,312
6216-24s+16s=5,312
-8s=5,312-6216
-8s=-904
Divide both sides by -8
s=113
Therefore, 113 student tickets were sold.
Answer:
c = 420t . . . . c is calories burned; t is hours riding at 15 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
There is not enough information given to write a function rule relating all the variables to calories burned. If we assume that calories are burned at the constant rate of 420 calories per hour, then total calories will be that rate multiplied by hours:
c = 420·t
where c is total calories burned by the 154-lb person, and t is hours riding at 15 mph.
___
In general, rates are related to quantities by ...
quantity = rate · time . . . . . where the rate is (quantity)/(time period)
