Answer: 68 child tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of child tickets that were sold that day.

Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold that day.

A total of 124 tickets were sold on Tuesday. This means that

x + y = 124

At the city Museum child admission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.80. The total sales from tickets was $936. This means that

5.7x + 9.8y = 936 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 124 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5.7(124 - y) + 9.8y = 936

706.8 - 5.7y + 9.8y = 936

- 5.7y + 9.8y = 936 - 706.8

4.1y = 229.2

y = 229.2/4.1

y = 55.9

y = 56

x = 124 - y = 124 - 56

x = 68

The half-life of caffeine in a person’s bloodstream is about 6 hours. If a person’s bloodstream contains 80 milligrams of caffei
Luda [366]
To calculate the remaining caffeine, we use the radioactive decay formula which is expressed as An = Aoe^-kt where An is the amount left after t time, Ao is the initial amount and k is a constant we can calculate from the half-life information. We do as follows:
 at half-life,
ln 1/2 = -k(6)
k = 0.12/hr

An = 80e^-0.12(14)
An = 15.87 mg

1 pts The function f(x) = 12,900(0.40)x models the population of ants in a house x days after their discovery. Which statement d
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

f(x) = 500 • 1.1x

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question, we need to understand that:

- The population of ants is going to increase with time as they mate and have a population positive growth rate.

- The initial number of ants is 500.

- The rate at which it increases will be multiplied with x months

We will work our way out by removing the wrong answers first

Since,

The population cannot be decreased so we can neglect the last two options involving 0.9 as it will result in a decrease in the population.

Now we are left with two options:

a)  f(x) = 500 • 1.1x

b) f(x) = 1.1 • 500x

Since in the option (b) , 500 is multiplied with x , it is not possible as 500 is a constant initial amount and not a factor of growth of population. The growth factor is supposed to be multiple of x months.

So, the correct answer is f(x) = 500 • 1.1x
