Answer:

6 tickets were purchased at $47

8 tickets were purchased at $57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the tickets purchased at $47 be x

Let the tickets purchased at $57 be y

We can form an equation from the question given which will be:

x + y = 14 ....... i

47x + 57y = 738 ........ ii

From equation i

x = 14 - y ........ iii

Substitute iii into ii

47x + 57y = 738

47(14-y) + 57y = 738

658 - 47y + 57y = 738

Collect like terms

-47y + 57y = 738 - 658

10y = 80

y = 80/10

y = 8

8 tickets were purchased at $57

Note that from i

x + y = 14

x + 8 = 14

x = 14 - 8

x = 6

6 tickets were purchased at $47

a 15 wire is tied from the top of a pole to a stake in the ground. if the stake is 5 ft from the base of the pole find the heigh
Ainat [17]

Imagine this pole of height h sticking out of the ground.  A wire of length 15 feet connects the top of the pole to a stake in the ground which is located 5 feet from the base of the pole.  This arrangement creates a right triangle with legs h (the height of the pole), 5 ft (distance of bottom of pole from stake) and hypotenuse 15 ft.  

We can find the height of the pole (h) using either trig or the Pythagorean Theorem.  If we use the P. T., then h^2 + 5^2 = 15^2.

This results in h^2 + 5^2 = 15^2, or h^2 + 25 = 225, and so:

h^2 = 200.  Thus, h = +√200 = +10√2.

The height of the pole is 10√2 ft, or approx. 14.14 ft.

What's the vertex form of y=6x^2-12x+1
aniked [119]
The\ vertex\ form\ of\ y=ax^2+bx+c:y=a(x-h)^2+k\\\\where:h=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\ and\ k=\dfrac{-(b^2-4ac)}{4a}\\-------------------------------\\y=6x^2-12x+1\to a=6;\ b=-12;\ c=1

h=\dfrac{-(-12)}{2\cdot6}=\dfrac{12}{12}=1\\\\k=\dfrac{-[(-12)^2-4(6)(1)}{4(6)}=\dfrac{-(144-24)}{24}=\dfrac{-120}{24}=-5\\\\vertex:(1-5)

the\ vertex\ form:\\\boxed{y=6(x-1)^2-5}

Help plz!!!
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

First graph

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, the graph opens up because <em>a</em> is positive. Second, the parent function of the quadratic graph is \displaystyle y = x^2,and the greater the WHOLE NUMBERS [vertical stretch (<em>a</em>)] get, the slimmer the parabola gets, and the more you increase the DEGREE evenly [anything ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, and\or 8], the more flat, U-shaped the parabola becomes.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
