Answer:

60 tickets for children were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of sold children's tickets and let y be the number of adult tickets sold, then we can pose the following equations.

$x + y = 132$ (i) Because 132 tickets were sold in total

$5.20x + 8.60y = 931.20$ (ii) because the total of $ obtained by sales was 931.20.

We must clear x. Then we substitute (i) in (ii)

$5.20x +8.60(132-x) = 931.20$

$5.20x + 1135.2 - 8.60x = 931.20$

$-3.4x = -204$

$x = 60$

Answer:

60 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denote the number of child tickets sold and y the number of adult tickets sold. The problem involves solving the following system of linear equations; x+y=132 and 5.2x+8.6y=931.2. Using technology to solve this simultaneous equation yields; x= 60

Answer:

3.) $\displaystyle y - 4 = 4[x - 1]$

2.) $\displaystyle y + 5 = 2[x + 2]$

1.) $\displaystyle y + 3 = 1\frac{1}{5}[x + 5]$

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Point-Slope Formula, $\displaystyle y - y_1 = m[x - x_1],$ all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so be EXTREMELY CAREFUL inserting the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT SIGNS.

Two vectors A⃗ and B⃗ are at right angles to each other. The magnitude of A⃗ is 5.00. What should be the length of B⃗ so that th

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Length of B is 7.4833

Step-by-step explanation:

The vector sum of A and B vectors in 2D is

$C=A+B=(a_1+b_1,a_2+b_2)$

And its magnitude is:

$C=\sqrt{(a_1+b_1)^2+(a_2+b_2)^2} =9$

Where

$a_1=Asinx$

$a_2=Acosx$

$b_1=Bsin(x+90)$

$b_2=Bcos(x+90)$

Using the properties of the sum of two angles in the sin and cosine:

$b_1=Bsin(x+90)=B(sinx*cos90+sin90*cosx)=Bcosx$

$b_2=Bcos(x+90)=B(cosx*cos90-sinx*sin90)=-Bsinx$

Sustituying in the magnitud of the sum

$C=\sqrt{(Asinx+Bcosx)^2+(Acosx-Bsinx)^2} =9$

$C=\sqrt{A^2sin^2x+2ABsinxcosx+B^2cos^2x+A^2cos^2x-2ABsinxcosx+B^2sin^2x} =9$

$C=\sqrt{A^2(sin^2x+cos^2x)+B^2(cos^2x+sin^2x)}$

$C=\sqrt{A^2+B^2} =9$

Solving for B

$A^2+B^2 =9^2$

$B^2 =9^2-A^2$

Sustituying the value of the magnitud of A

$B^2=81-5^2=81-25=56$

$B= 7. 4833$
