Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Each ticket is $15. The number of tickets is what we are trying to solve for. The class spends a certain amount of money to prepare for the formal. They hope that the money they make in ticket sales is MORE than what they spend. The expression that represents the number of tickets at $15 each is 15x, where x is the number of tickets. They hope that the sales are greater than what they spend, so what we have so far is
15x >
Greater than what, though? What do they spend? They spend 600 for the food, so
15x > 600...
but they also have to print a certain, unknown number of tickets at .50 each. The expression that represents the printing of each ticket is .5x (we can drop the 0; it doesn't change the answer or make it wrong if we drop it off). So the cost for this affair is the food + the printing.
15x > 600 + .5x
Solve this inequality for x. Begin by subtracting .5 from both sides to get
14.5x > 600 so
x > 41.3
Because we are not selling (or printing) .3 of a ticket, it's safe to say (and also correct!) that they need to sell (and print) 41 tickets. If they sell 41 tickets, the profit is found by
15(41) > 600 + .5(41)
615 > 600
This means that at 41 tickets, they make a profit. At 40 tickets, the inequality looks like this:
15(40) > 600 + .5(40) and
600 > 620. This is not true, so 40 tickets isn't enough.
Answer:
Week 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ben has $250 in the beginning. He saves $150 per week.
y = 150x + 250
Tim has $1,650 in the beginning. He spends $200 per week.
y = 1650 - 200x
We are trying to find which x-value produces the same y-value for both equations. You can do this by setting both equations equal to each other.
150x + 250 = 1650 - 200x
(150x + 250) + 200x = (1650 - 200x) + 200x
350x + 250 = 1650
(350x + 250) - 250 = (1650) - 250
350x = 1400
(350x)/350 = (1400)/350
x = 4
By week 4, they will have the same amount of money.

Answer:
B. 90 + 90 √2
Step-by-step explanation:
From first base to the second base, it will travel 90 feet.
From the second base to the home plate, it will travel a longer distance. How much? Well, if you look at the layout of the field, you'll see that if you draw a line from second base to the home plate, you'll form two rectangular triangles, one with the 1st base, another one with the 3rd base.
The line from the 2nd base to home plate is the hypotenuse, which we can easily find by:
h²=90² + 90²
h = √(2 * 90²)
h = 90 √2
So, from second base to home plate, the ball has traveled 90 √2
Overall: 90 + 90 √2
