System of Equations
For the problem to solve we'll use the following variables:
x = number of the early bird tickets sold
y = number of the regular tickets sold
Haley sold a total of 20 tickets, thus:
x + y = 20 [1]
Early bird tickets cost $10 and regular tickets cost $15, thus the total money collected is:
10x + 15y = 225
Dividing by 5:
2x + 3y = 45 [2]
We have to solve the system of equations [1] and [2].
Multiply [1] by -2:
-2x - 2y = -40 [3]
Add [3] to [2]:
-2x - 2y +2x + 3y = -40 + 45
Simplifying:
y = 5
Substituting in [1]:
x + 5 = 20
Subtracting 5:
x = 20 - 5
x = 15
Solution: Hayley sold 15 early bird tickets and 5 regular-priced tickets
The order pair solution is (15,5)
Answer:
The zeroes would be -3 and a double root at 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find this by first expanding the function.
c(x) = (x + 3)(x - 5)^2
c(x) = (x + 3)(x - 5)(x - 5)
Then we can solve for the zeroes by setting each parenthesis equal to 0 and solving.
x + 3 = 0
x = -3
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
Answer:
We reach at 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
The starting point is 2 .
Jump at the six places, the final point reaches at 8, so the point is 8.
Because the 0.96 is less than 1, it means that the house loses value over the years.
Convert 0.96 to a percent: 0.96 = 96%
100% - 96% = 4%
The house loses 4% of it's value every year.
