Jillian’s school is selling tickets for a play. The tickets cost $10.50 for adults and $3.75 for students. The ticket sales for

opening night totaled $2071.50. The equation 10.50 a plus 3.75 b equals 2071.50, where a is the number of adult tickets sold and b is the number of student tickets sold, can be used to find the number of adult and student tickets. If 82 students attended, how may adult tickets were sold? adult tickets

Answer:

168

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation given is 0.50 a +3.75 b= 2071.50

Where a is number of adult tickets and b is number of student tickets

It is also given that 82 students attended, so we can put "82" in place of "b" and then solve the equation for a:

10.50a+3.75b=2071.50\\10.50a+3.75(82)=2071.50\\10.50a+307.5=2071.50\\10.50a=2071.50-307.5\\10.50a=1764\\a=\frac{1764}{10.50}\\a=168

Hence, 168 adults attended

andre [41]

Answer:

  f(x)=\dfrac{(x+3)(x-1)^2}{(x+4)(x+3)(x-2)^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Each vertical asymptote corresponds to a zero in the denominator. When the function does not change sign from one side of the asymptote to the other, the factor has even degree. The vertical asymptote at x=-4 corresponds to a denominator factor of (x+4). The one at x=2 corresponds to a denominator factor of (x-2)², because the function does not change sign there.

__

Each zero corresponds to a numerator factor that is zero at that point. Again, if the sign doesn't change either side of that zero, then the factor has even multiplicity. The zero at x=1 corresponds to a numerator factor of (x-1)².

__

Each "hole" in the function corresponds to numerator and denominator factors that are equal and both zero at that point. The hole at x=-3 corresponds to numerator and denominator factors of (x-3).

__

Taken altogether, these factors give us the function ...

  \boxed{f(x)=\dfrac{(x+3)(x-1)^2}{(x+4)(x+3)(x-2)^2}}

Which equation is y = 9x2 + 9x – 1 rewritten in vertex form?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

y = 9(x +\frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation in the vertex form is written as

y = a (x-h) + k

Where the point (h, k) is the vertex of the equation.

 

For an equation in the form ax ^ 2 + bx + c the x coordinate of the vertex is defined as

x = -\frac{b}{2a}

In this case we have the equation y = 9x^2 + 9x - 1.

Where

a = 9\\\\b = 9\\\\c = -1

Then the x coordinate of the vertex is:

x = -\frac{9}{2(9)}\\\\x = -\frac{9}{18}\\\\x = -\frac{1}{2}

The y coordinate of the vertex is replacing the value of x = -\frac{1}{2} in the function

y = 9 (-0.5) ^ 2 + 9 (-0.5) -1\\\\y = -\frac{13}{4}

Then the vertex is:

(-\frac{1}{2}, -\frac{13}{4})

Therefore The encuacion excrita in the form of vertice is:

y = a(x +\frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

To find the coefficient a we substitute a point that belongs to the function y = 9x^2 + 9x - 1

The point (0, -1) belongs to the function. Thus.

-1 = a(0 + \frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

-1 = a(\frac{1}{4}) -\frac{13}{4}\\\\a = \frac{-1 +\frac{13}{4}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\a = 9

<em>Then the written function in the form of vertice is</em>

y = 9(x +\frac{1}{2}) ^ 2 -\frac{13}{4}

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

2f =c

350c + 500f = 4800

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice as many cans of soup as frozen dinners

All food combined contain 4800 (mg of sodium)

2f =c

350c + 500f = 4800

These are the systems of equations.
