We will call an adult ticket <em>a</em>, and a child ticket <em>c</em>.
Since they sold 60 tickets in total, we can form the equation:
a + c = 60
We can also say that the sum of money from the adult tickets and child tickets combined is 460.
Thus we can say
11a + 6c = 460
Now, we must solve our system.
a + c = 60
11a + 6c = 460
6a + 6c = 360
11a + 6c = 460
-5a = -100
a = 20
Thus, (20) + c = 60
c = 40
a = 20 and c = 40
Answer:
ax² + bx + c
Step-by-step explanation:
The form of a quadratic equation that is easy to use when finding the maximum or minimum value of the function is ax² + bx + c.
Suppose a quadratic function:
f(x) = 2x² - 8x + 9
Use ( -b/2a , f(-b/2a) ).
-b/2a
a = 2
b = -8
-(-8)/2(2)
8/4
= 2
f(2) = 2(2)² - 8(2) + 9
f(2) = 2(4) - 8(2) + 9
f(2) = 8 - 16 + 9
f(2) = 1
The minimum value of this quadratic function is (2, 1).
It represents a minimum value because a > 0.
Answer:
D. Divide both sides by - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x = 312
x = 312/(-8)
x = - 39
<span>The average length of a bike (including the length of both wheels) is about 68 inches.For finding the true answer we must follow the following convertion rule: 1 inch is equivalent to 0.02 yard, so 68 inches equal to 1.88 yards. Consequently, the value nearest 1.88 yards is 1.5 yards, so the answer is the choice A: 1.5 yards. </span>
