Answer: The number of $12 tickets and $15 sold are 120 and 180 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
12x + 15y = 4140 .....(1)
Where,
x stands for $12 tickets and y stands for $15 tickets
According to the question:
x + y = 300 ....(2)
Now solving equation 1 and 2.
From equation 2:
x = 300 - y
Now putting this expression in equation 1.
12x + 15y = 4140
12(300 - y) + 15y = 4140
3600 - 12y + 15y = 4140
3600 + 3y = 4140
3y = 4140 - 3600
3y = 540
y = 180
And,
x = 300 - y = 300 - 180 = 120
The number of $12 tickets sold = x = 120
The number of $15 tickets sold = y = 180
Thus, the number of $12 tickets and $15 sold are 120 and 180 respectively.
Answer:
4g = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n = the number of nectarines
and g = the number of grapefruit
We have two conditions that must be satisfied to represent the situation:
(1) n = 3g
(2) n + g = 64
If you need one equation, we can substitute (1) into (2) and get
4g = 64
First find the slope,
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(1-(-9))/(7-6)=10
Next, use the point slope form to find the equation:
L : y-y1=m(x-x1) => y-1=10(x-7)
[in point slope form, point is (7,1), slope=m=10 ]
I think this might be the answer since (a+b) equals 4, and ab= 3. I'm not sure.
a3 + b3
= (4)3+4(3)
= 12+12
= 24
