Answer:
The solution of the system of equations is (11, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ The price of each student ticket is $x
∵ The price of each adult ticket is $y
∵ They sold 3 student tickets and 3 adult tickets for a total of $69
∴ 3x + 3y = 69 ⇒ (1)
∵ they sold 5 student tickets and 3 adults tickets for a total of $91
∴ 5x + 3y = 91 ⇒ (2)
Let us solve the system of equations using the elimination method
→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)
∵ (5x - 3x) + (3y - 3y) = (91 - 69)
∴ 2x + 0 = 22
∴ 2x = 22
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∵
∴ x = 11
→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or (2) to find y
∵ 3(11) + 3y = 69
∴ 33 + 3y = 69
→ Subtract 33 from both sides
∵ 33 - 33 + 3y = 69 - 33
∴ 3y = 36
→ Divide both sides by 3
∵
∴ y = 12
∴ The solution of the system of equations is (11, 12)
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponent rules that apply are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
a^-b = (1/a)^b
(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)
_____
These let you rewrite the given function as ...
f(x) = (3^(2x))(3^1) = 3(3^(2x)) = 3(3^2)^x = 3·9^x
and
f(x) = 3^(2x+1) = (3^-1)^(-(2x+1)) = (1/3)^-(2x+1)
