Mariana plans to visit an amusement park where she must pay for admission and purchase tickets to go on the rides. Mariana wants

Ivanshal [37]

Answer: The number 12 represents admission charge in Mariana's equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given ,

Total cost = ( Charge per ticket) (Number of tickets) + (Admission fees) (i)

For x = Number of tickets, the total cost (c) for a day at the amusement park is given as

$c = 1.50x + 12$ (ii)

Here, 12 = Admission fees [Comparing (i) and (ii)]

Hence, the number 12 represents admission charge in Mariana's equation.

Two buses leave towns 304 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One bus travels 14 mih slower than the othe

8090 [49]

Answer:

The faster bus moves at 83mi/h and the slower one moves at 69mi/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define:

R₁ = rate of bus 1, this is the faster one.

R₂ = rate of bus 2, this is the slower one.

We know that one bus travels 14mi/h slower, then:

R₂ = R₁ - 14mi/h.

Now we know that:

Distance = Speed*Time.

If we add the distances that both busses travel in 2 hours, it should be equal to the initial distance between the buses, then:

R₁*2h + R₂*2h = 304 mi

Then we have the two equations:

R₂ = R₁ - 14mi/h

R₁*2h + R₂*2h = 304 mi

The first step is to replace the first equation in the second one, to get:

R₁*2h + (R₁ - 14mi/h)*2h = 304 mi

And now we can solve this for R₁.

R₁*2h + R₁*2h - 14mi/h*2h = 304 mi

R₁*4h - 28mi = 304mi

R₁*4h = 304mi + 28mi = 332mi

R₁ = 332mi/4h = 83mi/h

The faster bus moves at 83mi/h

And we know that the slower one moves at 14mi/h slower than this, then:

R₂ = R₁ - 14mi/h = 83mi/h - 14mi/h = 69 mi/h

Solve ( x - 2)( x + 7) =0

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

x = 2 or

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 2)(x + 7) = 0

x - 2 = 0

Add 2 to both sides

x - 2 + 2 = 2 + 0

x = 2

OR

x + 7 = 0

Subtract 7 from both sides

x + 7 - 7 = 0-7

x = -7

Therefore

x = 2 or

x = -7

1. Slove the system of equations, first by graphing, and then algebraically. (8 points) y=x-2 and y=-2x+7

Anton [14]

The solution of the equation is $x=3$ and $y=1$

Explanation:

The equations are $y=x-2$ and $y=-2 x+7$

First we shall solve the equation graphically.

The image of the graph is attached below.

This contains the solution to the system of equations.

The equations $y=x-2$ and $y=-2 x+7$ are plotted on the graph.

The intersection of these two equations are the solutions of the system of equations.

Thus, the intersection of the two equations are $x=3$ and $y=1$

Now, we shall solve the equation algebraically.

Let us solve the equation using substitution method.

Let us substitute $y=x-2$ in $y=-2 x+7$ , we get,

$x-2=-2x+7$

Adding both sides by 2x, we have,

$3x-2=7$

Adding both sides by 2, we get,

$3x=9$

Dividing both sides by 3,

$x=3$

Thus, the value of x is 3.

Substituting $x=3$ in $y=x-2$ , we get,

$y=3-2\\y=1$

Thus, the value of y is 1.

Hence, The solution of the equation is $x=3$ and $y=1$
