Answer:

156 seats were sold at the store and 244 at the gallery

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of stalls be x

Let the price per ticket for gallery be y

If 400 seats were sold in total, then;

x+y = 400 ... 1

If concert tickets are sold for $ 8 for the stalls and $ 6 for the gallery with a total of $2888, then;

8x + 6y = 2888 ....2

Solve both equation simultaneously

x+y = 400 ... 1 * 8

8x + 6y = 2888 ....2 .*1

__________

8x+8y = 3200 .

8x + 6y = 2888

Subtract

__________

8y - 6y = 3200 - 2888

2y = 312

y = 312/2

y = 156

Since x = 400 - x

y = 400 - 156

y = 244

hence 156 seats were sold at the store and 244 at the gallery

The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (2, 4), and the point (3, 6) is on the parabola. what is the equation of the pa

Paraphin [41]

Given:

Vertex ===> (h, k) (2, 4)

The parabola passes through the point: (x, y) ==> (3, 6)

Let's find the equation of a parabola.

To find the equation, use the general equation of a parabola with vertex (h, k):

$y=a(x-h)^2+k_{}$

Where:

(h, k) ==> (2, 4)

(x, y) ==> (3, 6)

Substitute values into the general equation:

$\begin{gathered} 6=a(3-2)^2+4 \\ \\ 6=a(1)^2+4 \\ \\ 6=a+4 \end{gathered}$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$\begin{gathered} 6-4=a+4-4 \\ \\ 2=a \\ \\ a=2 \end{gathered}$

Substitute 2 for a, and input the values of the vertex (h, k) in the general vertex equation:

$y=2(x-2)^2+4$

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is:

$y=2(x-2)^2+4$

ANSWER:

$y=2(x-2)^2+4$
