Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

The numerator is a difference of squares
x² - 16 = (x - 4)(x + 4)
=
← cancel the common factor (x + 4) on numerator/ denominator
=
→ C
P = price of tickets
8.50p = 42.50
you then divide 8.50 on both sides
8.50p = 42.50
——— ———
8.50 8.50
p = 5
meaning Allison bought 5 tickets in total.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The contracted phone plan will have the same steepness and a higher y-intercept.
Let f be the fraction invested at 10%. So (1-f) is the fraction at 7%. After one year the interest is
664 = 8200 f (.10) + 8200 (1-f) (.07) = 8200(.03)f + 8200(.07)
f = (664 - 8200(.07))/(8200(.03)) = .3659 = 36.59 %
Answer: 36.59%
Check:
8200(.3659)*.1 + 8200(1-.3659)*.07 = 664.01 good
