Burka [1]

Find the sale price by multiplying the original price by 70% then add the two prices together to get the total.

799 x 0.70 = 559.30

549 x 0.70 = 384.30

Total: 559.30 + 384.30 = $943.60

Tickets for the basketball game were sold at $4.00 for adults and $2.50 for students. If 320 tickets were sold for a total of $1
makkiz [27]

The problem based on condition are solved using the unknown variables. The number of tickets sold to the student are 120 and the number of tickets sold to the adults are 200.

Given information-

The price of the tickets for the basketball game for adults is $4.00.

The price of the tickets for the basketball game for students is $2.50.

<h3>Variables</h3>

Variables are the unknown and the value of the variables depend on the other variables in the equation. The above problem can be solved defining the variables from the given condition.

Let the total tickets purchased by the students is<em> x</em> and the total tickets porches by the adults is <em>y.</em>

As the total tickets sold for the game is $320. Thus,

\begin{aligned}\\&#10;x+y&=320\\&#10;y&=320-x\\&#10;\end                    .......1

Now as the total money with ticket selling is $1100. Thus,

2.5x+4y=110

Keep the value of u from the equation 1 in the above equation. We get,

\begin{aligned}&#10;2.5x+4(320-x)&=1100\\&#10;2.5x+1280-4x&=1100\\&#10;-1.5x&=1100-1280\\&#10;-1.5x&=-180\\&#10;x&=\dfrac{180}{1.5} \\&#10;x&=120\\&#10;\end

Thus the number of tickets sold to the student are 120.

Keep this value in equation 1,

y=320-x\\&#10;y=320-120\\&#10;y=200

Thus the number of tickets sold to the adults are 200.

Hence the number of tickets sold to the student are 120 and the number of tickets sold to the adults are 200.

find two positive real numbers such that they sum to 108 and the product of the first times the square of the second is a maximu
topjm [15]

The two positive numbers are 36 and 72 which gives a sum equal to 108 and the product of 36 and the square of 72 is a maximum.

Any integer greater than zero is considered a positive number. A positive number can either be written as a number or with the "+" symbol in front of it.

Let us consider the two positive real numbers as x and y. Then, their sum is written as,

x+y=108

Then, y=108-x

And the product is written as,

P=xy²

Substitute value of y in the above equation, we get,

\begin{aligned}P&=x(108-x)^2\\&=x(11664-216x+x^2)\\&=11664x-216x^2+x^3\\&=x^3-216x^2+11664x\end{aligned}

Now, differentiate P with respect to x, and we get,

\begin{aligned}\frac{dP}{dx}&=3x^2-432x+11664\\&=x^2-144x+3888\end{aligned}

Solving the above equation to zero, we get,

\begin{aligned}x^2-144x+3888&=0\\x^2-36x-108x+3888&=0\\x(x-36)-108(x-36)&=0\\(x-108)(x-36)&=0\\x&=\text{108 or 36}\end{aligned}

Substitute values of x in y=108-x, to get values of y.

If we substitute x=108, we get the y value as zero which doesn't give the required solution.

But, if we substitute x=36, we get,

\begin{aligned}y&=108-36\\y&=72\end{aligned}

Thus, the two positive numbers are 36 and 72.

Find the larger of the two roots of the equation y = -2.2x2 + 63.5x - 17
Luden [163]

The larger of the two roots of the equation y = -2.2x^2 + 63.5x - 17would be 28.59.

<h3>How to find the roots of a quadratic equation?</h3>

Suppose that the given quadratic equation is

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

Then its roots are given as:

x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

The given quadratic equation is

y = -2.2x^2 + 63.5x - 17

now, the roots of the equation are

x = \dfrac{-63.5 \pm \sqrt{63.5^2 - 4(-2.2)(-17)}}{2(-2.2)}\\\\\\x = \dfrac{-63.5 \pm \sqrt{4032.25 - 149.6}}{(-4.4)}\\\\\\x = \dfrac{-63.5 \pm \sqrt{3882.65}}{(-4.4)}\\\\\\x = \dfrac{-63.5 \pm 62.31}{(-4.4)}

The two roots are 0.27 and 28.59.

Thus, the larger of the two roots of the equation y = -2.2x^2 + 63.5x - 17would be 28.59.
