Alex Ar [27]3 years ago

Answer:

Number of students tickets sold = x = 380 tickets

Number of adults tickets sold = y = 150 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of students tickets sold = x

Number of adults tickets sold = y

x + y = 530 (1)

3x + 4y = 1740 (2)

From (1)

x = 530 - y

Substitute x = 530 - y into (2)

3x + 4y = 1740

3(530 - y) + 4y = 1740

1590 - 3y + 4y = 1740

- 3y + 4y = 1740 - 1590

y = 150

Substitute y = 150 into (1)

x + y = 530

x + 150 = 530

x = 530 - 150

x = 380

Number of students tickets sold = x = 380 tickets

Number of adults tickets sold = y = 150 tickets

Alemu, Tulu, Kassa and Tegitu worked for 4 hours, 6 hours, 5 hours
GaryK [48]
As a group they were paid $1000 after putting in 4+6+5+5 = 20 worker-hours.
$1000/(20 worker-hours) = $50/(worker-hour)
Alemu received 4*$50 = $200
Tulu received 6*$50 = $300
Kassa and Tegitu each received 5*$50 = $250

Find the Slope for <br> (3,-4) and (5,4)
REY [17]
The picture below shows the formula for calculating slope

In this example:
y2 = 4
y1 = -4
x2 = 5
x1 = 3
(These are the numbers you substitute into the formula)

Calculations:
4 - (-4) = 8
5 - 3 = 2
8/2 = 4

As you can see, after the values are substituted into the equation & simplified, the slope is equal to 4

Find the vertex of this parabola.<br><br><br><br> y = -2x2 + 4x + 12
STatiana [176]
For this case we have the following equation:
 y = -2x ^ 2 + 4x + 12&#10;
 Deriving we have:
 y = -2x ^ 2 + 4x + 12&#10;&#10;y '= -4x + 4
 We match zero:
 -4x + 4 = 0&#10;
 We clear the value of x:
 4x = 4&#10;&#10;x = 4/4&#10;&#10;x = 1
 Then, we substitute the value of x in the equation of the parabola:
 y = -2 (1) ^ 2 + 4 (1) + 12&#10;&#10;y = -2 + 4 + 12&#10;&#10;y = 14
 Thus, the vertex of the parabola is the ordered pair:
 (x, y) = (1, 14)
 Answer:
 
The vertice is:
 
(x, y) = (1, 14)
