The science club at Jersey High School is sponsoring a dance to raise money for their spring project. They will charge $4 per st

udent admission, but must pay $140 for publicity and chaperones. If n is the number of students who attend the dance, how many students must attend if the science club is to earn at least $640?

Answer: 195

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost per student = $4

Total number who attended = n

The cost of the total of student who attended will be cost per student multiplied by the total number of students, that is

Total cos = 4n

Since, they are to pay $140 , for publicity, then the total cost becomes

T = 4n - 140

From the last statement

4n - 140 ≥ 640

4n ≥ 640 + 140

4n ≥780

n ≥ 780/4

n ≥ 195

That means at least 195 students must attend if the science club is to earn at least $ 640

Answer:

Part 1) Is a inconsistent system

Part 2) Is a consistent independent system

Part 3) Is a consistent dependent system

see the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .  

If a consistent system has exactly one solution, it is independent .  

If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent

If a system not have solution, it is said to be inconsistent

Part 1) we have

x+5y=-2\\x+5y=4

This system of linear equations has two parallel lines (their slopes are equal) with different y-intercept

so

The lines don't intersect

The system has no solution

therefore

Is a inconsistent system

Part 2) we have

y=3x+4\\-2x+y=4

we know that

If two lines have different slopes, then the lines intersect at one point and the system of equations has one solution

In this problem, the lines have different slopes (m=3 and m=2)

so

The lines intersect at one point

The system has one solution

therefore

Is a consistent independent system

Part 3) we have

3x+y=4 ----> equation A

-6x-2y=-8 ----> equation B

Multiply equation A by -2 both sides

-2(3x+y)=-2(4)

-6x-2y=-8 ----> equation C

Compare equation B and equation C

Are identical lines

so

The system has infinity solutions

therefore

Is a consistent dependent system

So to put them in intervals of 5 you would have:
70-74
75-79
80-84
85-89
90-94
95-99
In these intervals you would have:
70-74: 72
75-79: 78
80-84: 81
85-89: 86, 86, 87
90-94: 92, 92, 92
95-99: 98

The second interval is 75-79 where there is only one number. Therefore the frequency will be 1.
The correct answer is A. Hope this helps! :)
