At homecoming, 125 tickets where sold. Tickets purchased for homecoming cost $20.5 without an activity card, and $15.75 with an
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Nearly 83 students did not had activity card.

Nearly 42 students had an activity card.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of tickets sold at homecoming = 125

Cost of each  ticket without activity card = $20.5

Cost of each  ticket with activity card = $15.75

Total amount earned  = $2365

Let, the number of tickets sold without activity car d  = k

So, the number of tickets sold without card = (Total sold - k)

                                                                          = 125 - k

Now, according to the question:

$20.5(k) + $15.75(125 - k)  =  $2365

or, 20.5 k + 1968.5 - 15.75 k = 2365

⇒ 4.75 k = 2365 - 1968.5 = 396.5

⇒ k = \frac{396.5}{4.75 }  = 83.47

Hence, nearly 83 students did not had activity card.

So,the number of students that had activity card = 125 - 83.47 = 41.53 ~  42

Hence, nearly 42 students had an activity card.

Find the value of x number on top is 6 and other is 9
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

x = - 12, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

By tangent secant theorem:

x(x + 9) =  {6}^{2}  \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 9x = 36 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 9x - 36 = 0 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 12x - 3x - 36 = 0 \\  \\ x(x + 12) - 3(x + 12) = 0 \\  \\ (x + 12)(x - 3) = 0 \\  \\ x + 12 = 0, \:  \: x - 3 = 0 \\  \\ x =  - 12, \:  \: x = 3 \\  \\

How do you know if the factors will have negatives or positives in them?
harina [27]

When using factoring by grouping, the replacement terms will both have the same sign of the original middle term. If the last term is negative, then the signs of the factors will have one of each sign with the “stronger” number (the larger absolute value) matching the middle term. hope this helps

If a polynomial has four terms, 3x3 5x 6x2 10, which factoring method can be considered? perfect-square trinomial difference of
Tems11 [23]

The factoring method which can be considered for such a cubic tetranomial expression is; factor by grouping sum of cubes.

<h3>What factoring method can be considered for the polynomial?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the order of the Polynomial is 3 and the polynomial is a tetranomial as it contains 4 terms.

On this note, since 3x³ is not a perfect cube, it follows that the best factorisation method for such a polynomial is; factor by grouping sum of cubes.
