adult ticket = 10

child ticket = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

for example…

adult ticket = x
child ticket = y

so that we get a system of equations

9x + 5y = 110…Equation 1

x + y = 14…Equation 2

solve the system of equations, this time I will use the Elimination and Substitution method

9x + 5y = 110

x + y = 14 (multiplied by 5)

↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

9x + 5y = 110

5x + 5y = 70

___________ _

4x = 40

x = 10

to find value of y subtitute x to one of Equation. for example from second Equation…

x + y = 14

10 + y = 14

y = 14 - 10

y = 4

∴ So, the number of each ticket was she bought is 10 adult ticket and 4 child ticket.

i keel asking for the dang answer why wont anyone tell me it a store sells pencils pens and markers that sells two times as many

babunello [35]

Answer:

Pencils = 325 ; Pens = 975 ; Markers = 650

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Number of Pencils = x

Number of pens = y

Number of markers = z

2 times as many markers as pencils

z = 2x

3 times as many pens as pencils

y = 3x

x + y + z = 1950

Write z and y in terms of x in the equation :

x + 3x + 2x = 1950

6x = 1950

Divide both sides by 6

6x / 6 = 1950 / 6

x = 325

Number of pencils = 325

Pens = 3 * 325 = 975

Markers = 2 * 325 = 650

Pencils = 325 ; Pens = 975 ; Markers = 650

The population of a community is known to increase at a rate proportional to the number of people present at time t. The initial

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

P(0) = 7,917

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of the community is given by the following formula:

$P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}$

In which P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate.

The initial population P0 has doubled in 5 years.

This means that

$P(5) = 2P(0)$

Which lets us find r.

$P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^{t}$

$2P(0) = P(0)(1+r)^{5}$

$(1+r)^{5} = 2$

Applying the 5th root to both sides

$1+r = 1.1487$

$r = 0.1487$

$P(t) = P(0)(1.1487)^{t}$

Suppose it is known that the population is 12,000 after 3 years.

With this, we find P(0)

$P(t) = P(0)(1.1487)^{t}$

$12000 = P(0)(1.1487)^{3}$

$1.5157P(0) = 12000$

$P(0) = \frac{12000}{1.5157}$

$P(0) = 7917$

Answer:

meema, papa, and then auntie jo

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to find the slope of each of them and then determine which one is the fastest and which one is the slowest.

meema: 48-24/4-2 = 4/2 = 2

papa: 40-24/5-3 = 16/2 = 8

auntie jo: 45-18/5-2 = 27/3 = 9

im in algebra two so you can trust my answer. happy holidays and stay safe!
