$4

You can get this by setting up 2 equations. One for you and one for your friend. Each should have a cost equation. Let x = adult and y = student.

You: 7x + 16y = 120
Friend: 13x + 9 = 140

Solve using any method.

Answer:

The cost of student ticket is $4

Step-by-step explanation:

let

price for an adult = a

price for a student = b

7a + 16b = 120...........(i)

13a + 9b = 140............(ii)

make a subject of the formula in equation(i)

7a = 120 - 16b

divide through by 7

a = 120/7 - 16/7b

insert a in equation(ii)

13(120/7 - 16b/7)  + 9b = 140

1560 /7 - 208b/7 + 9b = 140

collect like terms

(-208b + 63b)/7 = 140 - 1560/7

-145b/7 =(980 - 1560) /7

-145b/7 = -580/7

multiply both sides by 7

-145b = -580

divide both sides by -145

b = -580/-145

b = 4

Insert the value of b in equation(ii)

13a + 9b = 140............(ii)

13a + 9(4) = 140

13a + 36 = 140

13a = 140 - 36

13a = 104

divide both sides by 13

a = 104/13

a = 8

The cost of student ticket is $4

Evaluate the integral. 3 2 t3i t t − 2 j t sin(πt)k dt
sveta [45]

∫(t = 2 to 3) t^3 dt

= (1/4)t^4 {for t = 2 to 3}

= 65/4.

----

∫(t = 2 to 3) t √(t - 2) dt

= ∫(u = 0 to 1) (u + 2) √u du, letting u = t - 2

= ∫(u = 0 to 1) (u^(3/2) + 2u^(1/2)) du

= [(2/5) u^(5/2) + (4/3) u^(3/2)] {for u = 0 to 1}

= 26/15.

----

For the k-entry, use integration by parts with

u = t, dv = sin(πt) dt

du = 1 dt, v = (-1/π) cos(πt).


So, ∫(t = 2 to 3) t sin(πt) dt

= (-1/π) t cos(πt) {for t = 2 to 3} - ∫(t = 2 to 3) (-1/π) cos(πt) dt

= (-1/π) (3 * -1 - 2 * 1) + [(1/π^2) sin(πt) {for t = 2 to 3}]

= 5/π + 0

= 5/π.

Therefore,

∫(t = 2 to 3) <t^3, t√(t - 2), t sin(πt)> dt = <65/4, 26/15, 5/π>.
