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

Kym plans to deposit $100 in an account at the end of each month for the next five years so that she can take a trip. (a) If Kym
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit= $100

Interest rate= 0.06/12= 0.005

Number of periods= 12*5= 60 months

<u>a)</u>

<u>To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {100*[(1.005^60) - 1]} / 0.005

FV= $6,977

b) <u>If the deposit is at the beginning of the month, the interest is compounded one more period</u>. We need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i + {[A*(1+i)^n]-A}

FV= 6,977 + {[100*(1.005^60)] - 100}

FV= 6,977 + 35

FV= $7,012

Which of the following is the equation of the line graphed below?
Masteriza [31]

The line crosses the y-axis at y=4, so will have an equation of the form

... y = (something)·x + 4


The line rises from left to right, so has a positive slope. That is, the "(something)" must be greater than zero.


The only selection that meets these criteria is

... B y = 2x + 4
