Answer:

Price of 1 child ticket is $5.4

Price of 1 adult ticket is $10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

6 children and 2 adults are going for circus.

Children ticket is half the price of adult ticket.

Total ticketing cost =$54

To find:-

Cost of 1 child ticket=?

Cost of 1 Adult ticket=?

Solution:-

Let price of 1 child ticket be x and price of 1 adult ticket be y,

therefore from the given data we get 2 equations,

6x+2y=54                          -----------------------------------(1)

x=\frac{1}{2} y                    --------------------------------(2)

Now, substituting the value of x from equation 2 in equation 1,

6x+2y=54

6(\frac{1}{2} y)+2y=54

\frac{6}{2}y+2y=54

3y+2y=54

5y=54

\therefore y=\frac{54}{5}

\therefore y =10.8          ------------------------(3)

Now, substituting the value of y from equation 3 in equation 2,

x=\frac{1}{2} y

\therefore x=\frac{1}{2} \times 10.8       ------------(from equation 3)

\therefore x=\frac{10.8}{2}

\therefore x=5.4              ----------------------(4)

As, x is price of 1 child ticket and y is price of 1 adult ticket,

Therefore price of 1 child ticket is $5.4 and price of 1 adult ticket is $10.8

Find the vertex of the given quadratic function.
ki77a [65]

B

given f(x) in factored form, equate to zero for x-intercepts

(x - 8)(x - 4) = 0, hence

x = 4, x = 8 ← x- intercepts

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is situated at the midpoint of the x- intercepts

x- coordinate of vertex = \frac{4+8}{2} = 6

f(6) = (6 - 8 )(6 - 4 ) = -2 × 2 = - 4 ← y-coordinate

vertex = (6, - 4 ) → B

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

$4,221.00 for online and 6,210.00 for the instore

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 4.2%/100 = 0.042 per year.

Solving our equation:

A = 6700(1 + (0.042 × 15)) = 10921

A = $10,921.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $6,700.00 at a rate of 4.2% per year for 15 years is $10,921.00.

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 6.9%/100 = 0.069 per year.

Solving our equation:

A = 6000(1 + (0.069 × 15)) = 12210

A = $12,210.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $6,000.00 at a rate of 6.9% per year for 15 years is $12,210.00.
