Answer:

6.25 Years

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find 8% of 40,000 which is 3,200 which represents how much the initial amount increases per year.

Next, find out how much you need to increase by subtracting 40,000 from 60,000 which means you need 20,000 more dollars.

Next, divide how much money you need by how much it increases to see how many years it will take.

20,000 divided by 3,200 is 6.25

Use factoring to solve the quadratic equation. Check by substitution or by using a graphing utility and identifying x-intercepts
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

  x = -7, x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume your equation is ...

  x² -2x -63 = 0

Factors of -63 that have a sum of -2 are -9 and +7. Then the factored equation is ...

  (x -9)(x +7) = 0

Solutions make the factors zero.

  x -9 = 0   ⇒   x = 9

  x +7 = 0   ⇒   x = -7

The solutions to the quadratic equation are x = -7 and x = 9.

A theatre group sold a total of 440 tickets for a show, making a total of $3940. Each regular ticket cost $5, each premium ticke
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: 330 regular tickets, 46 premium tickets and 64 elite tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of regular tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of premium tickets that were sold.

Let z represent the number of elite tickets that were sold.

The theatre group sold a total of 440 tickets for the show. It means that

x + y + z = 440- - - - - - - - - -1

Each regular ticket cost $5, each premium ticket cost $15, and each elite ticket cost $25. The total amount made from the show was $3940. It means that

5x + 15y + 25z = 3940- - - - - - - - - 2

The number of regular tickets was three times the number of premium and elite tickets combined. It means that

x = 3(y + z)

x = 3y + 3z

Substituting x = 3y + 3z into equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

3y + 3z + y + z = 440

4y + 4z = 440- - - - - - - - - - - - -3

5(3y + 3z) + 15y + 25z = 3940

15y + 15z + 15y + 25z = 3940

30y + 40z = 3940 - - - - - - - - - - 4

Multiplying equation 3 by 10 and equation 4 by 1, it becomes

40y + 40z = 4400

30y + 40z = 3940

Subtracting, it becomes

10y = 460

y = 460/10

y = 46

Substituting y = 46 into equation 3, it becomes

4 × 46 + 4z = 440

184 + 4z = 440

4z = 440 - 184

4z = 256

z = 256/4

z = 64

x = 3(y + z) = 3(46 + 64)

x = 330
