Answer:  Equation that represents this situation is 5(x+17) = 1495,

Price of one ticket is 282

Step-by-step explanation:

Here x represents the price of one ticket,

Also, a person bought travel insurance that costs $17 per ticket.

Hence, the total cost of a person = x + 17

⇒ The total cost of 5 person = 5 ( x + 17 )

But, According to the question,

5 ( x + 17 ) = 1495

⇒ x + 17 = 299

⇒ x = 299 - 17

⇒ x = 282

Hence, the price of one ticket = $ 282

A quadratic equation is an equation whose leading coefficient is of the second degree. The correct options are A, B, and E.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an equation whose leading coefficient is of second degree also the equation has only one unknown while it has 3 unknown numbers. It is written in the form of ax²+bx+c. The Roots of the quadratic equation:

x = \dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

The complete question is:

Patel is solving 8x2 + 16x + 3 = 0. Which steps could he use to solve the quadratic equation? Select three options.

8(x2 + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8

x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 5 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot

x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 4 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot

8(x2 + 2x + 1) = 3 + 1

8(x2 + 2x) = –3

If we simplify the given options, then the option that is correct is,

A.) 8(x² + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8

     8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

B.) 8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

x = \dfrac{-16\pm\sqrt{16^2-4(8)(3)}}{2(8)}\\\\x = -1 \pm \dfrac{\sqrt{10}}{4}\\\\x = -1 \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{16}}\\\\x= -1 \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{5}{8}}

E.) 8(x² + 2x) = –3

8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

Hence, the correct options are A, B, and E.

The graph below shows the average daily temperatures on January 1 from 1900 to 1934 for city A.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

25 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Data for the average daily temperature on January 1 from 1900 to 1934 for city A.

- The distribution X has the following parameters:

                    Mean u = 24°C

                    standard deviation σ = 4°C

- We will first construct an interval about mean of 1 standard deviation as follows:

  Interval for 1 standard deviation ( σ ):                                    

                    [ u - σ , u + σ ]

                    [ 24 - 4 , 24 + 4 ]

                    [ 20 , 28 ] °C

- Now we will use the graph given to determine the number of years the temperature T lied in the above calculated range: [ 20 , 28 ].

           T1 = 20 , n1 = 2 years

           T2 = 21 , n2 = 3 years  

           T3 = 22 , n3 = 2 years

           T4 = 23 , n4 = 4 years  

           T5 = 24 , n5 = 3 years

           T6 = 25 , n6 = 3 years  

           T7 = 26 , n7 = 5 years

           T8 = 27 , n8 = 2 years

           T5 = 28 , n9 = 1 years

- The total number of years:

               ∑ni = n1 + n2 + n3 + n4 + n5 + n6 + n7 + n8 + n9

                     =  2 + 3 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 5 + 2 + 1

                     = 25 years
