Answer:

88 adult tickets and 77 student tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult tickets sold be 8x and the number of student tickets sold be 7x.

adult tickets + student tickets = 165 tickets

8x + 7x = 165

15x = 165

x = 165 ÷ 15

  = 11

No. of adult tickets sold (8x) = 11 × 8

                                               = 88

No. of student tickets sold (7x) = 11 × 7

                                                   = 77

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first divide 165 and 15 ( 8 + 7 )

165 / 15 = 11 tickets per 1 part of the ratio (if that makes sense)

then just multiply 11 times both parts of the ratio

8 x 11 = 88 adult tickets

7 x 11 = 77 student tickets

check your answer by add the tickets together if you get 165 your answer was correct

88 + 77  = 165

hope this helps <3

Factor f(x) = 4x3 + 15x2 – 24x + 5 into linear factors given that - 5 is a zero of f(x).15f(x) = 4x3 + 15x2 - 24x + 5 =(Factor c
Basile [38]

If x=-5 is a zero, then the first factor of the polynomial would be (x + 5 )

To find the other two factors we can divide the polynomial by the expression (x+5).

Using synthetic division, we have:

-5 I 4 15 -24 5 (Coefficients of the dividend)

I -20 25 -5 (Multiplying each coefficient by the results of the substraction and adding)

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

4 -5 1 0 (Coefficients of the quotient)

The result of the division is 4x^2 - 5x + 1. Factoring it, we have:

4x^2 - 4x -x + 1 (Separating -5x into -x and -4x)

4x (x - 1) - (x -1) (Factoring each pair of terms)

(x-1)(4x-1) (Factoring using the common factor)

So the answer would be:

(x + 5 )(x-1)(4x-1)
