Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's have the adult tickets be a and the children tickets be c.

a=2c (twice as many adult tickets as child tickets)

5a+2c=700 (dollar value of each ticket)

Have a wonderful day! I hope that the helps! :D

Andrea, Justin, and Virginia went to an office supply store. Andrea bought 6 pencils, 7 markers, and 8 erasers. Her total was $1

Answer:

$x=0.25\,,\,y=1.75\,,\,z=0.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x,y,z$ denotes number of pencils, markers, erasers respectively.

For Andrea:

$6x+7y+8z=15.75\,\,\,(i)$

For Justin:

$6x+8y+5z=16.75\,\,\,(ii)$

For Virginia:

$5x+5y+7z=11.75\,\,\,(iii)$

On subtracting equations (i) and (ii), we get

$(6x+7y+8z)-(6x+8y+5z)=15.75-16.75\\-y+3z=-1\\y-3z=1\\y=1+3z$

Put $y=1+3z$ in equation (i)

$6x+7(1+3z)+8z=15.75\\6x+29z=8.75\,\,\,(iv)$

Put $y=1+3z$ in equation (iii)

$5x+5(1+3z)+7z=11.75\\5x+22z=6.75\,\,\,(v)$

Multiply equation (iv) by 5 and equation (v) by 6 and then subtract both the equations.

$5(6x+29z)-6(5x+22z)=5(8.75)-6(6.75)\\13z=3.25\\z=\frac{3.25}{13}=0.25$

Put $z=0.25$ in equation $y=1+3z$

$y=1+3(0.25)=1.75$

Put $y=1.75\,,\,z=0.25$ in equation (i)

$6x+7(1.75)+8(0.25)=15.75\\6x+12.25+2=15.75\\6x=1.5\\x=0.25$

(x+16)²=12 plz help me and show work

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The answer is $x=-16$ ± $2\sqrt{3}$ in exact form or $x=-12.535898$ , $x=-19.464102$ in decimal form.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, start by moving all terms to the left side of the equation and simplify. Simplify the equation by subtracting 12 from both sides of the equation and squaring $x+16$ , which will look like $x^{2} +32x+256-12=0$ . Next, simplify the equation again, which will look like $x^{2} +32x+244=0$ .

Then, use the quadratic formula to find the solutions. The quadratic formula looks like $\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$ .

For this problem, the quadratic variables are as follows:

$a=1$

$b=32$

$c=244$

The next step is to substitute the values $a=1$ , $b=32$ , and $c=244$ into the quadratic formula and solve. The quadratic formula will look like $\frac{-32(+-)\sqrt{32^2-4(1*244)} }{2*1}$ . To simplify the equation, start by simplifying the numerator, which will look like $x=\frac{-32(+-)4\sqrt{3} }{2*1}$ . Then, multiply 2 by 1 and simplify the equation, which will look like $x=-16(+-)2\sqrt{3}$ . The final answer is $x=-16$ ± $2\sqrt{3}$ in exact form. In decimal form, the final answer is $x=-12.535898$ , $x=-19.464102$ .
