Answer:

Mia sold 72 tickets, Jade sold 80 tickets, and Amelia sold 144 tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this question by coming up with equations for each friend and then substituting them into the equation M + J + A = 296

Jade sells 8 more tickets than Mia, so Jade's equation for how many tickets she sold is the amount of tickets that Mia sold + 8:

J = M + 8

Amelia sells twice as many tickets as Mia, so her equation is the amount of tickets Mia sold * 2:

A = 2 * M

Now we can substitute these equations into the overall one.

M + (M + 8) + (2M) = 296

Now we can combine like terms and solve for M.

2M + 8 + 2M = 296

4M + 8 = 296

4M = 288

M = 72

We now have the amount of tickets Mia sold, so we can insert this number into the equations for Amelia and Jade.

J = M + 8

J = 72 + 8

J = 80

A = M * 2

A = 72 * 2

A = 144

So Mia sold 72 tickets, Jade sold 80 tickets, and Amelia sold 144 tickets.

We have that
y=- x^{2} +36

we know that
Is the equation of a vertical parabola open down
so
the vertex is a maximum

step 1
convert the equation of the parabola in the vertex form
y=- x^{2} +36 \\ y-36=- x^{2}

the vertex (h,k) is the point (0,36)

Part a) The point on the graph where the height of the tunnel is a maximum is (0,36)

Part b) The points on the graph where the height of the tunnel is zero feet is when y=0
so
for y=0
- x^{2} +36=0 \\ x^{2} =36 \\ x= (+/-) 6

the points are (-6,0)  and (6,0)

see the attached figure

zalisa [80]

Answer:

x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x-2=22

Add two on both sides

-4x(-2+2)=22+2

-4x=24

Divide by negative 4

-4x/-4x=24/-4

Answer:

x=-6

Karl set out to Alaska in his truck.

Considering the linear function described, 500 liters of fuel were initially in the tank.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Researching this problem on the internet and looking at the graph, we have that when x = 0, y = 500, that is, the y-intercept is of 500. From the bullet points, the y-intercept is the initial value, hence 500 liters of fuel were initially in the tank.

In the circle below, CD is a diameter. If AE=10, CE=4, and AB=16, what is
Naily [24]

Answer:

(D)9.5 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two chords CD and AB intersecting at E.

Using the theorem of intersecting chords

AE X EB =CE X ED

  • AE=10
  • CE=4
  • AB=16

AB=AE+EB

16=10+EB

EB=16-10=6

Therefore:

AE X EB =CE X ED

10 X 6 = 4 X ED

ED =60/4 =15

Therefore:

CD=CE+ED

=4+15

CD=19

Recall that CD is a diameter of the circle and;

Radius =Diameter/2

Therefore, radius of the circle =19/2 =9.5 Units
