so the basic formula for this d = rt

where d is the distance , r is the speed and t is time

 

3800 – 120t = 520 + 40t ( this is the altitude of each plane are equal)

Solve for t

T = 20.5 min time it takes for the planes to be at the same altitude

 

3800 – 120(20.5) = 1340 ft

A movie theater charges $9.50 for adults and $4.50 for children. For a recent showing of a movie, the theater sold 33 tickets an
choli [55]

Answer:

The  number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of  adult tickets sold was 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the number of children's tickets sold

y ---> the number of  adult tickets sold

we know that

the theater sold 33 tickets

so

x+y=33 -----> equation A

the theater made a total of $158.50

so

4.50x+9.50y=158.50 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (31,2)

see the attached figure

therefore

The  number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of  adult tickets sold was 2
