Answer: The price of an adult ticket = $6

The price of a student ticket = $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of an adult ticket be a

Let the price of a student ticket be b.

From the question,

5a + 14b = 198 ...... equation i

10a + 8b = 156....... equation ii

Multiply equation i by 10

Multiply equation ii by 5

50a + 140b = 1980 ...... equation iii

50a + 40b = 780 ....... equation iv

Subtract iv from iii

100b = 1200

b = 1200/100

b = 12

Put the value of b into equation ii

10a + 8b = 156

10a + 8(12) = 156

10a + 96 = 156

10a = 156-96

10a = 60

a = 6

The price of an adult ticket = $6

The price of a student ticket = $12

Y=1/2x-1

Answer:

<h2>Y=1/2x-1</h2>

Find where the expression

1/2x−1 is undefined.

x=1/2

Consider the rational function

R(x)=ax^n/bx^m where n is the degree of the numerator and m is the degree of the denominator.

1. If n<m, then the x-axis, y=0, is the horizontal asymptote.

2. If n=m, then the horizontal asymptote is the line y = ab.

3. If n>m, then there is no horizontal asymptote (there is an oblique asymptote).

Find n and m.n=0m=1

Since n<m, the x-axis, y=0, is the horizontal asymptote.y=0

There is no oblique asymptote because the degree of the numerator is less than or equal to the degree of the denominator.

No Oblique Asymptotes

This is the set of all asymptotes.

Vertical Asymptotes:

x=1/2

Horizontal Asymptotes:

y=0

No Oblique Asymptotes

<h2>2x+y=4</h2>

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation.

y=4−2x

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

Reorder 4 and −2x.

y=−2x+4

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept.

Find the values of m and b using the form

y=mx+b.

m= - 2b=4

The slope of the line is the value of m, and the y-intercept is the value of b.

Slope: −2

y-intercept: (0,4)

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y

values.

Find the x-intercept.

x-intercept(s):

(2,0)

Find the y-intercept.

y-intercept(s):

(0,4)

Create a table of the x and y values.

x y

0 4

2 0

Graph the line using the slope and the y-intercept, or the points.

Slope: −2

y-intercept:

(0,4)

<h3>What is algebra?</h3>

Algebra is the part of mathematics in which letters and other general symbols are used to represent numbers and quantities in formulae and equations.

Algebra is divided into different sub-branches such as elementary algebra, advanced algebra, abstract algebra, linear algebra, and commutative algebra.

Elementary algebra: elementary algebra, branch of mathematics that deals with the general properties of numbers and the relations between them. Algebra is fundamental not only to all further mathematics and statistics but to the natural sciences, computer science, economics, and business.

From the given question,

\sqrt[4]{15^7} This expression can also be written in the form of a^\frac{b}{c}

We will convert \sqrt[4]{15^7} to the required form:

(15^\frac{7c}{4b} )\left \{ {{a=15^\frac{7c}{4b} } \atop {b=b} , c = c} \right.

Hence,

From the above equation we get the value of b and c is 4 and 7.

Write 18z − 7 (−3 + 2z) in simplest form. Select True or False for each statement.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Simplest form = 4<em>z </em>+ 21

Case 1: True, Case II: false and Case III: true

Step-by-step explanation:

18<em>z </em>- 7( -3 + 2z)

= 18<em>z</em> + 21 - 14z

= 18<em>z</em> -14z + 21

= 4<em>z </em>+ 21

So, in the above expression we have two terms. First term is 4z and second term is 21.

So the first case is true. As the expression has two terms.

The coefficient of <em>z </em>is a number which is multiplied by <em>z</em>. Therefore, Second case is false as the coefficient of <em>z</em> is 4.

The constant is a number which is not multiplied by any variable. Therefore, third case is true as the constant number in above expression is 21.
