Answer:

adult $8.00

child $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of 1 adult ticket = x.

Let the price of 1 child ticket = y.

2x + 4y = 38

3x + 3y = 40.5

Multiply the first equation by 3. Multiply the second equation by -2. Then add them.

         6x + 12y = 114

(+)      -6x - 6y = -81

-----------------------------

                  6y = 33

y = 33/6

y = 5.5

2x + 4y = 38

2x + 4(5.5) = 38

2x + 22 = 38

2x = 16

x = 8

adult $8.00

child $5.50

Answer:

An adult ticket is $8.00 and a child's ticket is $5.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We form a system of 2 equations and solve them.

Let a be the price of adult ticket and c the price of a child's.

2a + 4c = 38         (A)

3a + 3c = 40.5      (B)

Multiply equation A by 3 and equation B by -2:

6a + 12c = 114

-6a - 6c = -81        Adding these 2 equations:

0 + 6c = 33

c = 33/6 = 5.5.

Now we substitute for c in equation A:

2a + 4(5.5) = 38

2a = 38 - 22

2a = 16

a = 6.

Let's now check these results by substitution in equation B:

3a + 3c = 40.5

3(8) + 3(5.5) = 24.0 + 16.5 = 40.5

- so it checks out.

Answer:

10+3pi

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of of the shaded region is

AC+CT+marcSBT+SA

*Finding AC

The diagonals of a rectangle are equal is measurement. Since RB is a radius of the circle, then RB is 6. Since AC and RB are both diagonals of the rectangle, then AC is also 6.

*Finding CT

CT=RT-RC where RC is the width of the rectangle

Also RT is a radius so we have that

CT=6-RC

*Finding marcSBT

The circumference of a whole circle is 2pi*r.

We have a quarter of this with r=6.

1/4*2pi(6)

1/4*12pi

3pi

*Finding SA

SA=RS-AR

RS is a radius of the circle and AR is the length of the rectangle.

So we have that this can be rewritten as

SA=6-AR

Let's put these parts together:

6+6-RC+3pi+6-AR

Simplifying:

18-RC-AR+3pi

18-(RC+AR)+3pi

18-8+3pi (Remember length plus width equal 8)

10+3pi

What is the missing number?
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

y = 2^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the above data for x and y.

From the algebraic expression;

y = 2^{x}

We can deduce that the value of y is equal to two (2) raise to the power of x.

When x = 1, y = 2

y = 2^{x}

y = 2^{1}

y = 2

When x = 2, y = 4

y = 2^{x}

y = 2^{2}

y = 4

When x = 3, y = 8

y = 2^{x}

y = 2^{3}

y = 8

The above calculations can be used to determine the other values of y with respect to x.
