Given :

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 10 senior tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $85 .

The school took in $75 on the second day by selling 5 senior citizens tickets and 7 child tickets.

To Find :

The price of a senior ticket and the price of a child ticket.

Solution :

Let, price of senior ticket and child ticket is x and y respectively.

Mathematical equation of condition 1 :

10x + y = 85    ...1)

Mathematical equation of condition 2 :

5x + 7y = 75    ...2)

Solving equation 1 and 2, we get :

2(2) - (1)   :

2( 5x + 7y - 75 ) - ( 10x +y - 85 ) = 0

10x + 14y - 150 - 10x - y + 85 = 0

13y = 65

y = 5

10x - 5 = 85

x = 8

Therefore, price of a senior ticket and the price of a child ticket $8 and $5.

Hence, this is the required solution.

We invested $10000 into two bank accounts. One account earns 14% per year, the other account earns 8% per year. How much did we
Blababa [14]

Answer:

$7,300 was invested in the 14% account while $2,700 was invested in the 8% interest account

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested in first account be $x while the amount for second account is $y

Mathematically;

x + y = 10,000 •••••••••(i)

Interest on first account

= 14% of x = 14/100 * x

Interest on second account

= 8% of y= 8/100 * y

Adding all together will give total

14/100 * x + 8/100 * y = 1238

Multiply through by 100

14x + 8y = 123800 •••••••(ii)

From equation 1, x = 10,000 - y

Insert this into second equation

14(10,000-y) + 8y = 123,800

140,000 - 14y + 8y = 123,800

140,000 - 6y = 123,800

6y = 140,000 - 123,800

6y = 16,200

y = 16,200/6

y = $2,700

Recall

x + y = 10,000

x = 10000 - y

x = 10,000 - 2,700

x = $7,300

Quadratic formula to find the zeros <br> b^2-4b+4=0
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

I don't think you need the quadratic formula for this equation. It just factors into (b - 2)(b - 2), but I'll do it because you requested it.

Formula

\text{x = }\dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}

Givens

a = 1

b = - 4

c = 4

Solution

x = - - 4 +/- sqrt((-4^2) - 4*1*4)

       ====================

                   2*1

x = 4 +/- sqrt (16 - 16)

          ==========

              2

x = 4/2

x = 2

There are 2 roots but both of them are the same. Some teachers say there is only 1 root. I'm in that group.
