Answer:

The answer to your question is   3 tickets for students and 5 tickets for adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Adults = a = $7.25

Students = s = $5.50

total tickets = 8

total cost = $52.75

Process

1.- Write equations for the problem

                   a + s = 8                     --------------- l

           7.25a + 5.50s = 52.75      --------------- ll

2.- Solve equation l for a

                  a = 8 - s

3.- Solve equation by substitution

               7.25(8 - s) + 5.50s = 52.75

               58 - 7.25s + 5.50s = 52.75

             - 1.75s = 52.75 - 58

             - 1.75s = - 5.25

                       s = -5.25/-1.75

                       s = 3

4.- Find a

                 a = 8 - 3

                 a = 5

5.- Result

            3 tickets for students and 5 tickets for adults

Answer : 4 & 5
Explanation :
4x-5/8 >-10 + 3x |multiply by 8
4x-5> -80 + 24x. | minus 4x , add 80
-5+80 > 24x -4x
75> 20x. |divide by 20
3.75 > x

So x is greater than 3.75 therefore 4 and 5 are the answers

Steve works between 30 and 40 hours per week. The function f, where f(x)= 8.5x represents the amount of money Steve ears given t
Bess [88]

Answer: d) 255 ≤ f(x) ≤ 340

Step-by-step explanation:

The function

f(x)= 8.5x

represents the amount of money that Steve earns given the number of hours, x, he works.

The dependent variable is the total amount that he earns, f(x) while the independent variable is the number if hours, x that he works. The range is the possible values of the dependent variable that satisfies the equation.

Steve works between 30 and 40 hours per week. This means that

the lowest amount that he earns is 8.5×30 = $255

The highest amount that he earns is 8.5× 40 = 340. Therefore, the range is

255 ≤ f(x) ≤ 340

A dump truck driver is delivering loads of sand for making sandbags to protect homes from flooding. Each load contains 12 m3 of
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

  57

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by the formula ...

  V = (1/3)πr²h

For a pile with a radius of 8.5 m and a height of 9 m, the volume is ...

  V = (1/3)π(8.5 m)²(9 m) = 216.75π m³ ≈ 680.94 m³

Then the number of truckloads required to create that size pile will be ...

  (680.94 m³)/(12 m³/truck) = 56.745 trucks

Even a partial truck load entails another trip, so ...

  57 truck loads of sand are needed.
