Answer:

advance tickets $30.00

same day tickets $35.00

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In this equation, you are trying to find two values so you must use system of equations. Your two equations would be:

40x +20y = 1900

x + y = 65

x represents the price of advance tickets and y represents the price of same day tickets.

2. Solve the equation by performing elimination using multiplication. Multiple one equation by a constant to get two equations that contain opposite terms.

40x + 20y = 1900

-40(x + y = 65) → -40x + -40y = -2600

3. Add the equations, eliminating one variable. (add -40x + -40y = -2600 to 40x + 20y = 1900)

   40x + 20y = 1900

+ -40x + -40y = -2600

Results in: -20y = -700

Solve for y by dviding both sides by -20.

y = 35

4. Substitute the solved value into one of the equations and solve for the remaining variable.

x + 35 = 65

Subtract 35 from both sides to solve for x.

x = 30

The advance tickets were $30.00 and the same day tickets were $35.00.

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the overhead, fixed costs, is $1000.

the variable cost is $200, so if she sells "x" tiles, then her costs is 200*x or 200x.

total costs then will just be C(x) = 200x + 1000.

namely both costs added together.

Revenue is just how much it's been taken in from the sales, since each tile is selling for $240, then the revenue is simply 240*x or just R(x) = 240x.

break even point is when those two guys equal each other

\bf \stackrel{R(x)}{240x}=\stackrel{C(x)}{200x+1000}\implies 40x=1000\implies x=\cfrac{1000}{40}\implies x=25

what if the cost for each tile were $220, 20 bucks more?

\bf \stackrel{R(x)}{240x}=\stackrel{C(x)}{220x+1000}\implies 20x=1000\implies x=\cfrac{1000}{20}\implies x=50

well, if the cost for each tile is $200, her break-even point is at 25 units, namely once she has sold 25 tiles, she's has lost nothing, has won nothing either, but hasn't lost anything.

if the cost is however $220 instead, her break-even point comes much later, at 50 units, so she'll have to sell more tiles in order to not have any losses, so she's worse off if the cost is more or course.

Are O, N, and P collinear? If so, name the line on which they lie.
san4es73 [151]

We are given a figure where M, N , O and P points are given.

We need to explain if points O, N, and P collinear or not.

Note: All co-linear points are in a straight line.

From the figure, we can see that <em>O and N points are in a straight line but point P is aside.</em>

So, the points O, N, and P are not collinear.

Therefore, correct option is "<u>No, the three points are not collinear</u>".
