The price of a staff ticket and the price of a student ticket is $8 and $14

Given:

Day 1:

Number of staff tickets sold = 3

Number of students tickets sold = 1

Total revenue day 1 = $38

Day 2:

<em>Number of staff tickets sold</em> = 3

<em>Number of students tickets sold</em> = 2

<em>Total revenue day</em> 2 = $52

let

<em>cost of staff tickets</em> = x

<em>cost of students tickets</em> = y

The equation:

<em>3x + y = 38 (1)</em>

<em>3x + y = 38 (1)3x + 2y = 52 (2)</em>

subtract (1) from (2)

2y - y = 52 - 38

y = 14

substitute y = 14 into (1)

3x + y = 38 (1)

3x + 14 = 38

3x = 38 - 14

3x = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8

Therefore,

cost of staff tickets = x

= $8

cost of students tickets = y

= $14

Find the four arthmetic means between -3 and 46
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

6.8, 16.6, 26.4, 36.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write the sequence, d is the common difference:

- 3, - 3 + d, - 3 + 2d, -3 + 3d, - 3 + 4d, 46

Therefore 46 = -3 + 5d

5d = 49

d = 49/5 = 9.8

So the first arithmetic mean is  -3 + 9.8 = 6.8.  and the second is -3 + 2(9.8) = 16.6...

They are:

6.8, 16.6, 26.4, 36.2.

You need to buy apples that costs $1.40 per pound. the farmer sells her apples in bags, and your bag is 2.5 pounds. How much did
lana [24]

Answer:

$3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's split 2.5 into 2 separate parts, 2 and .5. To find how much 2 pounds of apples cost, we have to multiply  $1.40 by 2. 1.40x2= 2.80. Now we have to figure out how much .5 pounds. To do this, we have to divide 1.40 by 2. We get .7. 2.80+ .7= $3.50 [or 3.5]
