Answer:

x+y=12

21.50x+14.75y=204

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adult tickets and y be the number of children's tickets.

We are given that there are total 12 people. Therefore, we can set:

x+y=12

Moreover, we are given that an adult ticket costs $21.50 and a child's ticket costs $14.75, therefore, cost of x adult tickets will be 21.50x and cost of y children's ticket will be 14.75y. We can form the second equation by setting the total cost of tickets as:

21.50x+14.75y=204

Therefore, the required system of equations that could be used to find x and y will be:

x+y=12

21.50x+14.75y=204

Answer:


x+y = 12


21.50x+14.75y=204.00


Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A local amusement park charges $21.50 per daily adult ticket and $14.75 per daily child's ticket.

Group of 12 people paid $204.00 for tickets.

To Find : System of equations could be used to find x, the number of adult tickets purchased, and y, the number of children's tickets purchased.

Solution :

Since group contains 12 people so no. of tickets are 12 .

Let out of 12 people no. of adults's tickets  are x.

Let out of 12 people no. of children's ticket are y .


⇒x+y = 12


Since charge of one adult ticket = $21.50

So, charge of x adult tickets = $21.50 x

Since charge of one child ticket = $14.75

So, charge of y children tickets =$14.75 y

And we are given that total amount paid by these 12 people = $204.00


Thus 21.50x+14.75y=204.00


Hence , System of equations could be used to find x, the number of adult tickets purchased, and y, the number of children's tickets purchased:


x+y = 12


21.50x+14.75y=204.00

At which x value will f(x)=3x+3 exceed g(x)=3x+10
Anvisha [2.4K]
We write an inequality:

f(x) > g(x)

3^x + 3 > 3x + 10

3^x > 3x + 7

This equation cannot be solved using trivial methods found in high-school classes, so we resort to graphical examination.  3x+7 is a linear function while 3^x is an exponential one (with limit zero as x approaches - \infty).  We see that 3^x = 3x+7 at approximately x=2.4 and x=-2.3.

Indeed, using a computer algebra system such as the ones on modern TI calculators and on many internet sites gives equality at x=2.42, -2.31.  By observing our graph, we see that f(x) > g(x) when x > 2.42 or x < -2.31.

FIRST ANSWER GET BRAINLEST
liraira [26]

Let's call x the price of a box of slime.

Gianna spent 4 × $58 for art supplies so 4(58) + 8x all together.  We have

392 ≤  4(58) + 8x ≤ 472

We can work with both inequalities at once.  4(58)=232 so we subtract that from all three sides.

160 ≤ 8x ≤ 240

Divide all three sides by 8, a positive number so the inequalities don't flip.

20 ≤ x ≤ 30

Answer: Least: $20, Most: $30
