For the school play, adult tickets cost 4 and children tickets cost 2. Natalie is working at the ticket counter and just sold 20

Svetradugi [14.3K]

The possible combinations of adult tickets and children tickets are : (0, 10), (1, 8), (2, 6), (3, 4), (4, 2), (5, 0)

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the number of adult tickets is $x$ and the number of children tickets is $y$

Given that, adult tickets cost 4 and children tickets cost 2 and Natalie sold 20 worth of tickets. So the equation will be.....

$4x+2y=20\\ \\ 2y= 20-4x\\ \\ y= 10-2x$

If x = 0, then $y= 10-2(0)= 10$

If x = 1 , then $y= 10-2(1)= 8$

If x = 2 , then $y= 10-2(2)= 6$

If x = 3 , then $y= 10-2(3)= 4$

If x = 4 , then $y= 10-2(4)= 2$

If x = 5 , then $y= 10-2(5)= 0$

If we take x value greater than 5 , then y will become negative which is not possible.

So, the possible combinations of adult tickets and children tickets are : (0, 10), (1, 8), (2, 6), (3, 4), (4, 2), (5, 0)

Mrs. Walter needs to cook her turkey in the oven for 5 hours and 15 minutes. If she puts the turkey in the oven at 8:15 AM, when

Svetradugi [14.3K]

8:15 + 5:00 = 13:15
13:15 + 0:15 = 13:30

The turkey will be ready at 1:30pm

How do I factor 3X^3-19X^2-14X=0?

Novosadov [1.4K]

Just as you look at it, the only factor common to all three terms is 'x'.
So you can factor the 'x' out and make the equation . . .

x (3x²-19x - 14) = 0

Right there, that tells you that [ x = 0 ] is a solution of the original equation.

But you're not looking for solutions, you're looking for factors, so you continue.

What about that ugly trinomial: [ 3x² - 19x - 14 ] ? Can that be factored ?

Not easily. But if you stuff it into the quadratic equation, you'll find two solutions
to the equation
3x² - 19x - 14 = 0

and you'll recall that (x - a solution) is a factor of the left side.
So you can find the remaining two factors of the original trinomial.

How do I solve the surface area of a hexagonal prism when the hexagon base has an area of 509 in2 and a height of 14 in? I don't

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

use the formula SA = 6(a + h), where s = side length of the base, a = apothem length, and h = height of the prism.
