Answer:
t > 82
Step-by-step explanation:
First write what we know.
Earned $72
$4 per ticket, t
Cost is $400
So let's write our equation:
The cost is $400 so we put that on the left side,
$400 =
Now on the right side, we know they earned $72, so +$72 and each ticket (t) is $4 so $4t would represent the amount earned after they sell a certain number of tickets.
So we write:
$400 = $4t + $72 Now solve for t to find the number of tickets they need to sell.
400 = 4t + 72 Subtract 72 from each side.
400 - 72 = 4t + 72 - 72
328 = 4t Divide each side by 4.
328/4 = 4t/4
328/4 = t
82 = t
If the committee wants money left over they need to sell more than 82 tickets!
Our inequality is:
t > 82

Make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.
Consider the two functions as
<span>y1(x) =3x^2 - 5x,
y2(x) = 2x^2 - x - c
The higher the value of c, father apart the two equations will be.
They will touch when the difference, i.e. y1(x)-y2(x)=x^2-4*x+c has a discriminant of 0.
This happens when D=((-4)^2-4c)=0, or when c=4.
(a)
So when c=4, the two equations will barely touch, giving a single solution, or coincident roots.
(b)
when c is greater than 4, the two curves are farther apart, thus there will be no (real) solution.
(c)
when c<4, then the two curves will cross at more than one location, giving two distinct solutions.
It will be more obvious if you plot the two curves in a graphics calculator using c=3,4, and 5.

25 in of rain in 2 weeks.
there are 14 days in 2 weeks
25/14 = 1.785 in per day
1.785 x 31 = 55.335 in. of rain
55.335 in of rain is your answer
hope this helps
