Answer:

83 adult tickets and 217 student tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of adult tickets sold = x

Given that total number of tickets = 300

So, number of student tickets = 300 - x

Cost of adult ticket = $15

Cost of student ticket = $11

Total collection from adult tickets = $15x

Total collection from student tickets =  (300-x)\times 11 = 3300-11x

Given that overall collection = $3630

15x+(3300-11x) = 3630\\\Rightarrow 15x-11x=3630-3300\\\Rightarrow 4x = 330\\\Rightarrow   x = 82.5

So, for atleast $3630 collection, there should be 83 adult tickets and (300-83 = 217 student tickets.

Now , collection = $3632

A medical clinic is reducing the number of incoming patients by giving vaccines before flu season. During week 5 of flu season,
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

f(x) = -6x +120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call y the number of patients treated each week

Let's call x the week number.

If the reduction in the number of patients each week is linear then the equation that models this situation will have the following form:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope of the equation and b is the intercept with the x-axis.

If we know two points on the line then we can find the values of m and b.

We know that During week 5 of flu season, the clinic saw 90 patients, then we have the point:

(5, 90)

We know that In week 10 of flu season, the clinic saw 60 patients, then we have the point:

(10, 60).

Then we can find m and b using the followings formulas:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}   and b=y_1-mx_1

In this case: (x_1, y_1) = (5, 90) and (x_2, y_2) = (10, 60)

Then:

m=\frac{60-90}{10-5}

m=-6

And

b=90-(-6)(5)

b=120

Finally the function that shows the number of patients seen each week at the clinic is:

f(x) = -6x +120

Calculate the missing angle and give a reason for your answer
Vanyuwa [196]

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangle is an isosceles triangle hence the base angles are equal

sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, therefore, the top angle =180-(62+62)

the top angle =56°

h°= the top angle because alternate angles are equal

hence, h=56°
