Answer:

10$ for an adult and 7$ for a child

Step-by-step explanation:

price for an adult = a

price for a child = b

2a + 4b = 48.............(i)

5a + 2b = 64.............(ii)

make a subject of the formula in equation (i)

2a = 48 - 4b

divide through by 2

a = 24 - 2b

Insert the value of a in equation (ii)

5(24 - 2b) + 2b = 64

120  - 10b + 2b = 64

collect like terms

- 8b = 64 - 120

-8b = -56

divide both sides by -8

b = 7

insert the value of b in equation(i)

2a + 4(7) = 48

2a + 28 = 48

2a = 48 - 28

2a = 20

divide both sides by 2

a = 10

The price for one adult is $10 while the price for one child is $7

Mayelle earns $18,000 a year. After a raise, she earns $19,500. What is the percent of increase in pay? Round to the nearest ten
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

8.3 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Mayelle earns $18000 per year. Mayelle earning is increased by $19500, to calculate the percentage increase in earnings, we divide the difference between earnings after increase and earnings before increase by the earnings before increase and then multiply the result by 100. The percentage increase is given by:

Increase in pay = (Earnings before increase - earnings after increase) / Earnings before increase × 100%

Increase in pay = ($19500 - $18000)/ $18000 × 100% = 8.3 %

Over a certain region of space, the electric potential is V = 4x − 7x2y + 7yz2. Find the expressions for the x, y, z components
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Ex = - 4 + 14xy

Ey = 7x² - 7z²

Ez = -14yz

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between Electric field Er(x, y, z) and Electric potential, V, is a differential relationship:

Er(x, y, z) = -dV/dr(x, y, z)

Where r(x, y, z) = distance in x, y and z components.

The x component of the electric field is:

Ex = -dV/dx

Given that:

V = 4x - 7x²y + 7yz²

Ex = -dV/dx

Ex = -(4 - 14xy)

Ex = -4 + 14xy

The y component of the electric field is:

Ey = -dV/dy

Ey = -(-7x² + 7yz²)

Ey = 7x² - 7z²

The z component of the electric field is:

Ez = -dV/dz

Ez = -(14yz)

Ez = -14yz
