Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of child tickets sold.

Cost of x child tickets is x * 5.30 = 5.3x.

"three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold"

Number of adult tickets sold: 3x

Cost of 3x adult tickets is 3x * 8.40 = 25.2x

Cost of all tickets is 5.3x + 25.2x = 30.5x

Cost of all tickets is $1189.50

30.5x = 1189.5

x = 1189.5/30.5

x = 39

Answer: 39

Problem 1

With limits, you are looking to see what happens when x gets closer to some value. For example, as x gets closer to x = 2 (from the left and right side), then y is getting closer and closer to y = 1/2. Therefore the limiting value is 1/2

Another example: as x gets closer to x = 4 from the right hand side, the y value gets closer to y = 4. This y value is different if you approach x = 0 from the left side (y would approach y = 1/2)

Use examples like this and you'll get the results you see in "figure 1"

For any function values, you'll look for actual points on the graph. A point does not exist if there is an open circle. There is an open circle at x = 2 for instance, so that's why f(2) = UND. On the other hand, f(0) is defined and it is equal to 4 as the point (0,4) is on the function curve.

=======================================================

Problem 2

This is basically an extension of problem 1. The same idea applies. See "figure 2" (in the attached images) for the answers.

<span>The equation for that is

A = P * [ 1 + (r/n) ] ^(nt)

A = amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest.
P = principal amount (the initial amount you borrow or deposit)
r = annual rate of interest (as a decimal)
n = number of times the interest is compounded per year
t = number of years the amount is deposited or borrowed for.

In this question, P = 9700 , r = 0.034, n = 4 , t = 1

<span>A = 9700 * [ 1 + (0.034 / 4) ] ^ (4 * 1)

= 9700 * 1.03443596

<h3>Answer: Approximately 0.677</h3>

Explanation:

Add up the values in the plan A column. There are 10+12+16 = 38 people who prefer plan A.

Add up the values in the "40-49" row to find that 16+8 = 24 people are ages 40 to 49.

We have 38+24-16 = 46 people who either prefer plan A, are aged 40-49, or fit both descriptions. I subtracted off 16 because those 16 people were counted twice when adding 38 and 24.

An alternative way to get this value of 46 is to add up everything that is in column1 or row 3 (or both). So that would get 10+12+16+8 = 46.

Now add up everything in the table to find out how many people were surveyed total. That would be 10+7+12+15+16+8 = 68 people overall.

The probability of someone liking plan A, or being age 40-49, or both is 46/68 = 0.6765 approximately. Rounding to 3 decimal places gives 0.677
