We have 2 types of tickets, A tickets and B tickets.  The total number of tickets sold was 500, so an equation for this NUMBER of tickets is A + B = 500.  The MONEY equation is something different.  A tickets cost 10, so they are represented by 10A; B tickets cost 60, so they are represented by 60B.  The total dollar sales for A and B are 6000.  Our money equation for the sales is 10A + 60B = 6000.  Solve the first equation for A:  A = 500 - B.  Sub that value for A into the second equation to solve for B:  10(500-B) + 60B = 6000.  Distribute through the parenthesis to get 5000 - 10B + 60B = 6000.  Combine like terms to get 50B = 1000.  B = 20.  There were 20 type B tickets sold.  A = 500 - B, so A = 500 - 20 and A = 480.  There were 480 type A tickets sold.

Answer:

y=x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(3-2)/(2-1)

m=1/1

m=1

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=1(x-1)

y-2=x-1

Fred's bank account balance started with 325$. he has an annual interest rate of 4% . he wants to know how much money he will ha
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

the equation ( in t(n) form) is t(n)= 325(1.04) to the 12th exponent. otherwise the answer is 520.34 if you round up the half cent.

Step-by-step explanation:

325 is the starting value, or figure 0. 1.04 is the multiplier because it is growing buy .04 and you need to add in the 1 otherwise it'd decrease by 96% each time.
