Answer:

Advance tickets=$25

Same-day tickets=$15

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question below:

Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. The combined cost of one advance ticket and one same-day ticket is $ 40. For one performance, 25 advance tickets and 30 same-day tickets were sold. The total amount paid for the tickets was $1075 . What was the price of each kind of ticket?

Let

advance tickets=x

Same-day tickets=y

Combined cost of advance and same-day tickets=$40

It means,

x+y=40 Equ (1)

25 advance tickets and 30 same-day tickets=$1075

It means,

25x+30y=1075 Equ(2)

From (1)

x+y=40

x=40-y

Substitute x=40-y into (2)

25x+30y=1075

25(40-y)+30y=1075

1000-25y+30y=1075

5y=1075-1000

5y=75

Divide both sides by 5

5y/5=75/5

y=15

Recall,

x+y=40

x+15=40

x=40-15

=25

x=25

Advance tickets=$25

Same-day tickets=$15

Check

25x+30y=1075

25(25)+30(15)=1075

625+450=1075

1075=1075

Find two positive numbers satisfying the given requirements. the product is 192 and the sum of the first plus three times the se
Zepler [3.9K]
<h3>Given</h3>

Two positive numbers x and y such that xy = 192

<h3>Find</h3>

The values that minimize x + 3y

<h3>Solution</h3>

y = 192/x . . . . . solve for y

f(x) = x + 3y

f(x) = x + 3(192/x) . . . . . the function we want to minimize

We can find the x that minimizes of f(x) by setting the derivative of f(x) to zero.

... f'(x) = 1 - 576/x² = 0

... 576 = x² . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by x², add 576

... √576 = x = 24 . . . . . . . take the square root

... y = 192/24 = 8 . . . . . . . find the value of y using the above equation for y

The first number is 24.

The second number is 8.

What is the equation of the line whose slope is 3 that passes through the point (-1, 5).
sergey [27]
We knownthe equation of a line is y = mx + b. where m is slope and b is y intercept.

the point slope equation of a line is y - y1 = m (x - x1)

plug in x1 and y1 and m
y- (5) = (3)(x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3x + 3
y = 3x + 8

X/4 + 9 = x ? A)12, B)14, C)10, D)5​
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

A) 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 12 for x in the given equation:

x/4 + 9 = x

(12)/4 + 9 = 12

Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, divide, then add:

(12/4) + 9 = 12

(3) + 9 = 12

12 = 12 (True).
