Answer:

96feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height, in inches, of a spray of water is given by the equation ℎ(x)=160−16x^2

x is the number of feet away from the sprinkler head the spray

To get the height of the spray 2 feet away from the sprinkler head, we will simply substitute x =2 into the function and et the height h as shown;

From the equation

ℎ(x)=160−16x^2

h(2) = 160-16(2)²

h(2) = 160-16(4)

h(2) = 160-64

h(2) = 96feet

Hence the height will be 96feet if the spray is 2feet away from the sprinklers head

viktelen [127]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets.

  a +(a -73) = 427

  2a = 500 . . . . . add 73

  a = 250 . . . . . . divide by 2

250 adult tickets were sold.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

I call this a "sum and difference problem" because we are given the total of two values and the difference between them. As you can see here, the larger of the two values is the average of the given numbers, their sum divided by 2. This is the generic solution to such a problem: the larger number is the average of the given sum and difference.
