Define adult and student tickets
------------------------------------------
Let the number of adult tickets be x
Adult tickets = x
Student tickets = x + 69
------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------
x + x + 69 = 569
2x + 69 = 569 ← Combine like terms
2x = 569 - 69 ← Subtract 69 from both sides
2x = 500
x = 250 ← Divide by 2 to find x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of adult tickets and student tickets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adult tickets = x = 250
Student tickets = x + 69 = 319
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Adult tickets = 250 ; Student tickets = 319
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
y = 1500 * 1.09^t
Step-by-step explanation:
It should be clear that the rate of change is non-linear, meaning that we can express the function in the following manner
y = a * b^t, where a is the initial value and b is the rate of change and t is how many years.
Well, year 0 is the rate of change so we can say that a = 1500
Next, we divide any two consecutive year balances to find our rate of change:
1635/1500 = 1.09
Therefore, our equation looks like this: y = 1500 * 1.09^t
Last one is your answer
