The regular price of a child's entry ticket to a water park is $8 less than that for an adult's. The park offers half off of all

entry tickets during the off-peak season. The Sandlers paid a total of $194 for 1 adult ticket and 4 child's tickets to the water park during the off-peak season. The following equation represents this situation, where x represents the regular price of an adult ticket.
194 = 1/2x + 2(x - 8)

What is the regular price of a child's ticket?

$68

$76

$84

$89

<span>194 = 1/2x + 2(x - 8)
194 = 1/2x + 2x - 16 = 5/2x - 16
5/2x = 194 + 16 = 210
5x = 210 x 2 = 420
x = 420/5 = 84

Therefore, the regular price of a child's ticket is $84 - $8 = $76.

A fence must be built to enclose a rectangular area of 20,000 ft^2. Fencing material costs $4 per foot for the two sides facing
Marysya12 [62]

The cost of the least expensive fence is $3200

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • A fence must be built to enclose a rectangular area of 20,000 ft²
  • Fencing material costs $4 per foot for the two sides facing north and south and ​$8 per foot for the other two sides

We need to find the cost of the least expensive fence

Assume that the length of each side opposite to North or South is x feet and the length of each other sides  is y feet

∵ The length of the rectangle = x feet

∵ The width of the rectangle = y feet

∵ The rectangular area is 20,000 ft²

- Area of a rectangle = length × width

∴ x × y = 20,000

- Divide both sides by x to find y in terms of x

∴ y=\frac{20,000}{x}

The fence's length is equal to the perimeter of the rectangular area

∵ Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 length + 2 width

∴ Perimeter of the rectangle = 2x + 2y

∵ Fencing material costs $4 per foot for the two sides facing

   North and South

∴ x costs $4 per foot

∵ The cost of the other two sides is $8 per foot

∴ y costs $8 per feet

The cost of the fence is the sum of the products of 4 , 2x and 8 , 2y

∵ The cost of the fence (C) = 4(2x) + 8(2y)

∴ C = 8x + 16y

- Substitute y by its value above

∴ C=8x+16(\frac{20,000}{x})

∴ C=8x+\frac{320,000}{x}

To find the least expensive differentiate C with respect to x and equate the answer by 0 to find the value of x

∵ \frac{320,000}{x} can be written as 320,000x^{-1}

∴ C=8x+320,000x^{-1}

∵ \frac{dC}{dx}=8(1)x^{1-1}+320,000(-1)x^{-1-1}

∴ \frac{dC}{dx}=8-320,000x^{-2}

- Equate \frac{dC}{dx} by zero

∴ 8-320,000x^{-2}=0

∵ -320,000x^{-2}=-\frac{320,000}{x^{2}}

∴ 8-\frac{320,000}{x^{2}}=0

- Subtract 8 from both sides

∴ -\frac{320,000}{x^{2}}=-8

- Multiply both sides by x²

∴ - 320,000 = - 8x²

- Divide both sides by -8

∴ 40,000 = x²

- Take √  for both sides

∴ 200 = x

Substitute x in the equation of C to find the least cost of fence

∵ C=8(200)+\frac{320,000}{(200)}

∴ C = 1600 + 1600

∴ C = 3200

The cost of the least expensive fence is $3200

Rewrite the expression with rational exponents as a radical expression by extending the properties of integer exponents.
ra1l [238]

The expression will be written as \rm \sqrt[8]{2^5}., the correct option is A.

<h3>What are Exponents?</h3>

Exponents are the base raised to a power, It is written in the superscript of a number.

The expression given in the statement can be written as

\rm \dfrac{ 2^{7/8}}{2^{1/4}}

By the Exponent rule,

\rm \dfrac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}

So the expression can be written as

<h3>=\rm { 2^{7/8-1/4}</h3>

=\rm 2^{5/8}

=\rm \sqrt[8]{2^5}

Therefore, in radical form, the expression will be written as \rm \sqrt[8]{2^5}., the correct option is A.

The complete question is

Rewrite the rational exponent as a radical by extending the properties of integer exponents.

2 to the 7 over 8 power, all over 2 to the 1 over 4 power

the eighth root of 2 to the fifth power

the fifth root of 2 to the eighth power

the square root of 2 to the 5 over 8 power

the fourth root of 2 to the sixth power

Substitution method <br><br> x-7y=-9<br> -x+8y=10
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

x = -2, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

x-7y=-9---------------------equation 1

-x+8y=10-------------------equation 2

From equation 1, make x the subject of formula

x=7y-9----------------------equation 3

substituting x=7y-9 in equation 2,

-(7y-9)+8y=10

Expanding bracket

-7y+9+8y=10

Collecting like terms

8y-7y=10-9

y=1

substituting y=1 in 3

x=7(1)-9

x=7-9

x=-2
