Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of adults = a

Number of children = c

Total people  = 430

a + c = 430 --------------(I)

Total amount =$890

3a + c =890 -----------(II)

Multiply equation (I) by (-1)

(I)*(-1)    -a - c = -430

(II)         <u>3a + c = 890</u>    {Now add and thus c will be eliminated}

           2a        = 460

a = 460/2

a= 230

Plug in the value of a in equation (I)

230 + c = 430

c = 430 - 230

c = 200

Number of adults = 230

Number of children = 200

Makovka662 [10]

if one customer shows up, and she buys one song, that's $1.29, if she doesn't buy anymore, then that's the charge.

the first song is always at a full price, and after that, to encourage buying, the next ones are just 99 cents, let's see how it goes after a few songs purchases.

1 song.........................$1.29

2 songs.......................$1.29 + 0.99(2)

3 songs.......................$1.29 + 0.99(3)

4 songs.......................$1.29 + 0.99(4)

c songs.......................$1.29 + 0.99(c)

s(c) = 1.29 + 0.99c.

Y=log x If y=10, then what is x?
netineya [11]

Answer:

First question, x= 10^10.

Second question is 10!. or 362880

Step-by-step explanation:

First Question:

Simple logx has a base of 10, i.e log10 x,

the question will be 10 = log10 x,

when taking the base "10" from the right side to the left, the number on the left side becomes the power of the base, in this case 10 from the right will be base and 10 from the left will power and log will vanish.

x=10^10.

Another example with different numbers

Y=logx if Y= 12, What is x?

The base is ten when not given,so:

12=logx

10^12=x

Second Question;

simple multiplication just multiply the numbers.

10! is pronounced as 10 factorial,

5! will be 5x4x3x2x1=120
