Answer:

404 adult tickets were sold, and 250 child tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that

x is the number of adult tickets sold.

y is the number of child tickets sold.

654 tickets were sold.

This means that

x + y = 654

y = 654 - x

Admission prices at a football game were $5 for adults and $ 2 for children. The total value of the tickets sold was $2520.

This means that

5x + 2y = 2520

Since y = 654 - x

5x + 2(654 - x) = 2520

5x + 1308 - 2x = 2520

3x = 1212

x = \frac{1212}{3}

x = 404

y = 654 - x = 654 - 404 = 250

404 adult tickets were sold, and 250 child tickets.

I assume you want to know a permutation about how many ways they can be in the final set-up.

Order matters, which is why this is a permutation.

Formula: P(n, r) = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}

where the permutation is n^{P} k, with P for permutation.

Plug in:

4!/(4-2)!
4!/2!
(1 x 2 x 3 x 4)/1 x 2
(3x4)/1
= 12

12 ways.

HELP ME points a b and c lie on a line where ab=10 and ac=36. What are the two possible values of bc
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: 26 and 46, perhaps

Step-by-step explanation: The question does not state if point b is between a and c. Yes, it stands to reason that b is between a and c, but this is math. Since the question asks for TWO possible answers, it leads me to believe that b could also be prior to point a. Then we have two possible scenarios:

The logical one: A - - - B - - - C BC = (36 - 10) = 26

and this: B - - - A - - - C BC = (36 + 10) = 46

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! Given p(x)=x3−4x2+15x+k and the remainder of the division of p(x) by (x+1) is equal to −8, what is the r
balandron [24]
Use the polynomial remainder theorem. If p(x) is a polynomial of degree n>1, then we can divide by a linear term x-c to get a quotient q(x) and remainder r(x) of the form

\dfrac{p(x)}{x-c}=q(x)+\dfrac{r(x)}{x-c}\iff p(x)=(x-c)q(x)+r(x)

Then when x=c, we get p(c)=r(c). In other words, the value of p(x) at x=c tells you the value of the remainder upon dividing p(x) by x-c.

So given that p(x)=x^3-4x^2+15x+k, and the remainder upon dividing p(x) by x+1 is -8, we know that r(-1)=-8, so

\dfrac{x^3-4x^2+15x+k}{x+1}=q(x)-\dfrac8{x+1}
\dfrac{x^3-4x^2+15x+k+8}{x+1}=q(x)

Since q(x) is a polynomial (not a rational expression), then we know that x+1 divides x^3-4x^2+15x+k+8 exactly. In particular, the remainder term of this quotient is 0. We can use long or synthetic division to determine q(x). I prefer typing out the work for synthetic division:

-1   |   1   -4   15    k + 8
.     |        -1     5       -20
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.     |   1   -5    20    k - 12

The remainder here has to be 0, so k-12=0\implies k=12.

Finally, we can get the remainder upon dividing p(x) by x-1 by evaluating p(1), which gives p(1)=24.
