Let x represent lower level tickets that cost $77

Let y represent upper level tickets that cost $99

Cost equation: 77x + 99y = 247,071

Tickets equation: x + y = 2615

Using the elimination method, multiply the second equation by -77:

77x + 99y = 247,071

-77x - 77y = -201,355

--> 22y = 45,716

--> y = 2,078

Now plug "y" into either equation and solve for "x". I chose the Tickets equation. x + y = 2615 → x = 2615 - y → x = 2615 - 2078 → x = 537

Answer: lower level = 537 tickets, upper level = 2078 tickets.

Let U = upper

Let L = lower

U + L = 2615

99U + 77L = 247071 You can make your life slightly easier by dividing this equation through by 11

9U + 7L =24461 Multiply the first equation by 7

7U + 7L = 2615 * 7

7U +7L = 18305

====================

Combine the 2 new equations

9U + 7L = 24461

<u>7U + 7L = 18305</u> Subtract

2U = 6156 Divide by 2

U = 6156 / 2

U = 3078

The Number of Upper Level Tickets sold was 3078

Solve and graph the absolute value inequality: |4x+1| is greater than or equal to 5
melamori03 [73]
The graph of this inequality would be |4x+1|≥5. Then, we can solve for x by first subtracting both sides by one.
|4x<span>|</span>≥4.
Then, divide both sides by 4.
x≥1
We can check our answer by plugging in values of x. 
4*1+1≥5
5≥5
4*2+1≥5
9≥5
I hope that helped :).

Write "yes" or "no" to state whether or not the given side lengths would form a right triangle.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if it is a right triangle then use the formula  a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs which are the two small sides  and c is the hypotenuse the longest side.  Input the values for  a, b, and c and solve.

a = 12

b = 16

c= 25

12^2 + 16^2 = 25^2

144 + 256 = 625

   400 = 625

This means that it is not a right angle because 400 does not equal to 625.
