To answer the first question, we have these two equations:

x + y = 500 and 7.5x + 4.5y = 2550

We can use substitution to solve for x and then plug it back into any equation and find y.

y = 500 - x

7.5x + 4.5 (500 - x) = 2550

7.5x + 2250 - 4.5x = 2550

3x = 300

x = 100 adults

100 + y = 500 → y = 400 students

To answer your second question, we have two new equations:

2x = y (This may be confusing, but since there were more student tickets sold, it is the larger number.)
x + y = 300

We can rewrite the first equation and add them together:

2x - y = 0
x + y = 300

3x = 300

x = 100 adults

100 + y = 300 y = 200 students

The money earned from these 300 people is 100 * 7.5 + 200 * 4.5 = 750 + 900 = $1650.

$2550 - $1650 = $900

The 300 tickets sold had a $900 fall in ticket sales.

Hope this helps!

Evaluate the function fx = 4 * 7^t for x= -1 and x=2
Alex73 [517]
Well what i think you're asking here...I apologie if I'm wrong but what I did was 

f(-1) = 4 * 7^t = 4/7 

and 

f(2) = 4 * 7^t = 196.

Is this what you wanted if not I can...try another way.

I bought a box of granola bars at the store that has a volume of 210 cubic centimeters
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

a and c

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a cuboid is

V = lwh ( l is length, w is width, h is height )

The volume is given as 210 cm³

Check each of the dimensions given to determine which give the correct volume

a

V = 15 × 2 × 7 = 210 ← correct volume

b

V = 14 × 3 × 7 = 294 ← incorrect volume

c

V = 7 × 3 × 10 = 210 ← correct volume

Hence a and c  could be the dimensions of the box

Write the quadratic equation in factored form. x2 + x - 12 = 0
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

(x + 4)(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + x - 12 = 0

In order to factorise an equation, one must take into consideration the factors of the values in given equation.

In the factored form, the above equation becomes

(x + 4)(x- 3)

Factors of x^2 = x times x

Factors of -12 = +4 x -3

As shown in the factored form above
