Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use the Secant Segment theorem:

AB * AC = AD * AE

This means that the external piece of the secant times the whole secant for one is equal to the external piece of the secant times the whole secant for the other.

Now, setup an equation:

8(x + 8) = 4(30 + 4)

Simplify:

8x + 64 = 120 + 16

8x = 72

x = 9

Tickets to a concert cost either $12 or $15. A
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

  • 12x +15y = 4140; x + y = 300
  • x = 120; y = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is for receipts. Each x ticket generated $12 in receipts, so the first term needs to be 12x. Each y ticket generated $15 in receipts, so the second term needs to be 15y. U in this set of equations is the total number of tickets, said to be 300.

The equations are ...

  12x +15y = 4140; x +y = 300

__

Using the second equation to write an expression for x, we have ...

  x = 300 -y

Substituting this into the first equation gives ...

  12(300 -y) +15y = 4140

  3600 +3y = 4140

  y = (4140 -3600)/3 = 180

  x = 300 -180 = 120

The number of tickets sold is ...

  $12 tickets -- 120

  $15 tickets -- 180

_____

You might want to notice that the equation we ended up with:

  4140 -12(300) = 3y

is equivalent to this "word solution." This can be done in your head; no equations required.

If all the tickets sold were $12 tickets, the revenue would be $3600. The revenue is $540 more than that. Each $15 ticket generates $3 more revenue than a $12 ticket, so to have $540 more revenue, we must have 540/3 = 180 $15 tickets.

In slope-intercept form, what is the equation of the line passing through the points (2, 13) and (5, 22)
KiRa [710]
(2,13),(5,22)
slope = (22 - 13) / (5 - 2) = 9/3 = 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
use either of ur points...(2,13)...x = 2 and y = 13
now sub and find b, the y int
13 = 3(2) + b
13 = 6 + b
13 - 6 = b
7 = b
so ur equation is : y = 3x + 7 <===
