Answer:

y = x*$3.45 if   0 ≤ x < 4

y = x*$3.00 if   4 ≤ x

Step-by-step explanation:

A piecewise function is a function that behaves differently in diferent intervals of it's domain.

We know that 1lb of candy costs $3.45

But if you buy 4 lb or more, the cost of each lb is $3.00

Then if x represents the number of pounds of candy that you buy, we have the equation:

y = x*$3.45     if     0 ≤ x < 4

y = x*$3.00     if     4 ≤ x

Tickets to a movie cost $7.25 for adults and $5.50 for students a group of friends purchased 8 tickets for $52.75 how many adult
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.

Given that,

Tickets to a movie cost $7.25 for adults and $5.50 for students.

A group of friends purchased 8 tickets for $52.75.

Here we assume the no of adult tickets and no of student tickets be x and y.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

7.25x + 5.50y = 52.75 .............(i)

x + y = 8

x = 8 - y..................(2)

Now put the x value in the equation (1)

So,  

7.25(8-y) + 5.50y = 52.75

7.25 × 8 - 7.25y + 5.50y = 52.75

58 - 1.75y = 52.75

5.25 = 1.75y

y = 3

So,  

x = 8 - 3

= 5

Therefore we can conclude that the number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.
