Answer:
x^2 + x-72=0
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x+1) =72
Distribute
x^2 +x = 72
Subtract 72 from each side
x^2 +x - 72 = 0
Now this is the equation we can factor
Answer:
503 $1 tickets sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use two equations
Let x = number of $1 tickets sold
Let y = number of $1.50 tickets sold
x + y = 739
1x + (1.5)y = 857
First equation ==> y = 739 - x
Plug this into the second equation
x + (1.5)(739 - x) = 857
x + 1108.5 - 1.5x = 857
- 0.5x = -251.5
x = 503
There were 503 $1 tickets sold.
To find the number of $1.50 tickets, just plug this value of x into either one of the equations.
(503) + y = 739 (739 - 503 = 236)
y = 236
There were 236 $1.50 tickets sold.
Answer:
-x^3*(x + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perform the indicated multiplication and then write out all the terms in descending order by powers of x:
-x^3(5x+1)+4x^4 = -5x^4 - x^3 + 4x^4
= -x^4 - x^3, or = -x^3*(x + 1)
