Given :
Reserved seat tickets for the football game cost $4.00 each and general admission tickets cost $3.00 each.
After the game is over, the turnstile count shows 1787 people attended the game. The total receipts were $5792.
To Find :
The number of each general admission tickets sold.
Solution :
Let, general admission are x.
So, Reserved seat tickets will be 1787 - x.
Now, total amount T = 3x + 4( 1787 - x )
T = $5792
3x + 4( 1787 - x ) = $5792
-x + 7148 = 5792
x = 1356
Therefore, the number of each general admission tickets sold are 1356.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Yes you are correct good job
Solve for <em>x</em> when √(<em>x</em> ² - 4) = 1 :
√(<em>x</em> ² - 4) = 1
<em>x</em> ² - 4 = 1
<em>x</em> ² = 5
<em>x</em> = ±√5
We're looking at <em>x </em>≤ 0, so we take the negative square root, <em>x</em> = -√5.
This means <em>f</em> (-√5) = 1, or in terms of the inverse of <em>f</em>, we have <em>f</em> ⁻¹(1) = -√5.
Now apply the inverse function theorem:
If <em>f(a)</em> = <em>b</em>, then (<em>f</em> ⁻¹)'(<em>b</em>) = 1 / <em>f '(a)</em>.
We have
<em>f(x)</em> = √(<em>x</em> ² - 4) → <em>f '(x)</em> = <em>x</em> / √(<em>x</em> ² - 4)
So if <em>a</em> = -√5 and <em>b</em> = 1, we get
(<em>f</em> ⁻¹)'(1) = 1 / <em>f '</em> (-√5)
(<em>f</em> ⁻¹)'(1) = √((-√5)² - 4) / (-√5) = -1/√5
The sign must be negative; see the attached plot, and take note of the negatively-sloped tangent line to the inverse of <em>f</em> at <em>x</em> = 1.
Okay well Ms. Carlson has more money than Ms. Lee, about $7,142.2 more than her. PART A ANSWER: Ms. Carlson.
Together they have $7,148.799. to estimate it to the closest tens it would be $7,150. PART B ANSWER:$7,150
