Answer:
(-5,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Add it together
3x - 2x = x
y - y = 0
9 - 14 = -5
x = -5
Choose a random equation, doesn't matter.
3x + y = -14
3(-5) + y = -14
-15 + y = -14
y = -14 + 15
y = 1
Let us model this problem with a polynomial function.
Let x = day number (1,2,3,4, ...)
Let y = number of creatures colled on day x.
Because we have 5 data points, we shall use a 4th order polynomial of the form
y = a₁x⁴ + a₂x³ + a₃x² + a₄x + a₅
Substitute x=1,2, ..., 5 into y(x) to obtain the matrix equation
| 1 1 1 1 1 | | a₁ | | 42 |
| 2⁴ 2³ 2² 2¹ 2⁰ | | a₂ | | 26 |
| 3⁴ 3³ 3² 3¹ 3⁰ | | a₃ | = | 61 |
| 4⁴ 4³ 4² 4¹ 4⁰ | | a₄ | | 65 |
| 5⁴ 5³ 5² 5¹ 5⁰ | | a₅ | | 56 |
When this matrix equation is solved in the calculator, we obtain
a₁ = 4.1667
a₂ = -55.3333
a₃ = 253.3333
a₄ = -451.1667
a₅ = 291.0000
Test the solution.
y(1) = 42
y(2) = 26
y(3) = 61
y(4) = 65
y(5) = 56
The average for 5 days is (42+26+61+65+56)/5 = 50.
If Kathy collected 53 creatures instead of 56 on day 5, the average becomes
(42+26+61+65+53)/5 = 49.4.
Now predict values for days 5,7,8.
y(6) = 152
y(7) = 571
y(8) = 1631

Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this, you will write and equation in terms of the number of adult tickets sold and then solve for a, the number of adult tickets.
$5a + $3.50s = $2517.50
$5a + $3.50(a + 100) = $2517.50
5a + 3.50a + 350 = 2517.50
8.50a -350 -350
<u>8.5a</u> = <u>2167.50</u>
8.5 8.5
a = 255
The number of adult tickets sold was 255, and the number of student tickets sold was 355 (255 +100).
For simple integer factors as this one has, you want to find two values for the quadratic in the form ax^2+bx+c. Let the two values be j and k. These two values must satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac=10 and j+k=b=11, so j and k must be 1 and 10.
Now replace bx with jx and kx...
2x^2+x+10x+5 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms.
x(2x+1)+5(2x+1)
(x+5)(2x+1)
