Answer:

The price of an adult's ticket is $18.5 and price of a child's ticket is $11.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x dollars be the cost of an adult's ticket and y dollars be the cost of a child's ticket.

The cost of three adults and two children tickets is $77.50

Thus, we can write the equation:

3x + 2y = 77.50

The cost of two adults and three children tickets is $70.00

Thus, we can write the equation:

2x+3y = 70

Solving the two equations, we get

6x+4y-(6x+9y) = 155-210\\\Rightarrow -5y = -55\\\Rightarrow y = 11\\\Rightarrow 2x + 33 = 70\\\Rightarrow x = 18.5

Thus, the price of an adult's ticket is $18.5 and price of a child's ticket is $11.

In an arithmetic sequence, t4 + t5 + t6 = 300, and t15 +t16+ t17 = 201. Find t18.
stiks02 [169]
In an arithmetic sequence:
Tn=t₁+(n-1)d

t₄=t₁+(4-1)d=t₁+3d
t₅=t₁+(5-1)d=t₁+4d
t₆=t₁+(6-1)d=t₁+5d

t₄+t₅+t₆=(t₁+3d) +(t₁+4d)+(t₁+5d)=3t₁+12d

Therefore:
3t₁+12d=300    (1)


t₁₅=t₁+(15-1)d=t₁+14d
t₁₆=t₁+(16-1)d=t₁+15d
t₁₇=t₁+(17-1)d=t₁+16d

t₁₅+t₁₆+t₁₇=(t₁+14d)+(t₁+15d)+(t₁+16d)=3t₁+45d

Therefore:
3t₁+45d=201    (2)

With the equations (1) and (2) we make an system of equations:

3t₁+12d=300
3t₁+45d=201

we can solve this system of equations by reduction method.

  3t₁+12d=300
-(3t₁+45d=201)
-----------------------------
       -33d=99      ⇒d=99/-33=-3

3t₁+12d=300
3t₁+12(-3)=300
3t₁-36=300
3t₁=300+36
3t₁=336
t₁=336/3
t₁=112

Threfore:

Tn=112+(n-1)(-3)
Tn=112-3n+3
Tn=115-3n

Now, we calculate T₁₈:

T₁₈=115-3(18)=115-54=61

Answer: T₁₈=61

Answer:

SA: 664 in²

LA: it’s supposed to be 1040cm???

Step-by-step explanation:

SA: find the area of all sides of the prism first (I suppose it’s rectangular?)

80+80+112+112+140+140 = 664

LA: the lateral area formula is (perimeter of base)*height...

perimeter of base = (6+6+14+14) = 40

40 * 26 = 1040

I may be wrong on the second one since I don’t know what the prism’s shape is... Hope it helps though ;)

Answer:

A. =4x3+9x2−25x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+4)(4x−3)(x−1)

=((x+4)(4x−3))(x+−1)

=((x+4)(4x−3))(x)+((x+4)(4x−3))(−1)

=4x3+13x2−12x−4x2−13x+12

=4x3+9x2−25x+12
