Answer:
320 Student Tickets
180 Adult Tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this problem by using system of equations. First, we need to figure out our equations.
Equation 1: x as students and y as adults

We get this equation because the total tickets sold was 500. The x represents the students sold to students, and the y represents the tickets sold to adults.
Equation 2:

We get this equation based on the prices. Each student ticket costs $3, and each adult ticket costs $5. The total amount earned was $1850.
Now that we have out equations, we can use system of equations to find our students and adults.


Typically elimination is the easiest strategy because you are able to cross out variables.


Becomes:


We see that both equations now have 3x. We can cancel out 3x.


Now that we know y=180, we can plug it back into one of our equations to find x.


320 student tickets and 180 adult tickets were sold.
Answer:
q= -40p+c
q= -40p+4,000
Step-by-step explanation:
$5 each for 3800 tye-dye shower curtains
$10 each for 3600 tye-dye shower curtains
Slope of the demand line is
3800-3600/5-10
=200/-5
= -40
Demand function is
q= -40p + c
Where c is a constant
For q=3800 and p=$5
Demand function is
q= -40p + c
3800= -40(5)+c
3800= -200+c
c=3800+200
c=4,000
Linear demand function is
q= -40p+4,000
Answer:
The squared term is 1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
The parabola equation in the vertex form is
where point (h,k) is the vertex and a is the squared term. In this case h = 2 and k = -4. On the other hand, we know that y = -3 and x = -3 are in the parabola. Replacing these values in the formula gives
Solving for a
1/2 divided by 3 is 1/6.
So your answer is 1/6 pounds each person.
