c = number of children tickets sold

a = number of adult tickets sold.

we know that 178 total tickets were sold, thus whatever "c" and "a" are, c + a = 178.

the price of a child ticket is $5.4, so the price for all "c" tickets must be 5.4c.

the price of a adult ticket is $9, so the price for all "a" tickets must be ac.

we also know the total sales for all tickets combined is $1310.4, so then 5.4c + 9a = 1310.4.

$\bf \begin{cases} c+a=178\implies \boxed{c}=178-c\\ 5.4c+9a=1310.4\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ 5.4c+9\left( \boxed{178-c} \right)=1310.4 \end{cases} \\\\\\ 5.4c+1602-9c=1310.4\implies -3.6c+1602=1310.4\implies -3.6c=-291.6 \\\\\\ c=\cfrac{-291.6}{3.6}\implies c=81$

I need help finding the inverse of this problem

fomenos

$y=\sqrt{x-1}+6$

(Notice that we always have $y\ge6[tex].)Swap [tex]x$ and $y$ , then solve for $y$ :

$x=\sqrt{y-1}+6$

$x-6=\sqrt{y-1}$

$(x-6)^2=(\sqrt{y-1})^2$

$(x-6)^2=y-1$

$y=(x-6)^2+1$ (this is the inverse)

###

This inverse is valid only for $x\ge6$ . Why?

Suppose we take $x=0$ . Then

$y=(0-6)^2+1=37$

This would suggest that in the original equation, we should get $x=37$ when $y=0$ . But when we check this, we end up with

$0=\sqrt{37-1}+6=\sqrt{36}+6=6+6=12$

which is clearly not true.

-25 Points- Find the value of y. Enter a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

y ≈ 4.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Two secants drawn from outside the circle, then

The product of the external part and the entire secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire secant of the other secant, that is

3(3 + y) = 2(2 + 6 + 3) ← distribute both sides

9 + 3y = 2 × 11

9 + 3y = 22 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

3y = 13 ( divide booth sides by 3 )

y = 13 ÷ 3 ≈ 4.3 ( to the nearest tenth )
