Answer:

  • 321 adult tickets
  • 227 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

This sort of problem is easily solved by defining a variable to be the quantity of the higher-value contributor. Here, we can let x represent the number of adult tickets. Then total revenue is ...

  6.50x +3.50(548-x) = 2881

  3x +1918 = 2881 . . . . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  3x = 963 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1918

  x = 321 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  548-x = 548 -321 = 227 . . . . . .number of child tickets

321 adult tickets and 227 child tickets were sold.

Tom throws a ball into the air.
hram777 [196]
<span>h = -8t² + 40t

dh/dt = 0
⇒ d/dt(</span><span>-8t² + 40t) = 0
⇒ -16t + 40 = 0
⇒ 16t = 40
⇒ t = 40/16 = 2.5s

So it takes 2.5 seconds to reach highest point

h = -8×2.5² + 40×2.5 = -50 + 100 = 50
Ordered pair: (h,t) = (50,2.5)
