Answer:

  32 magazines

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of subscriptions in December, then the number in January is x-7.

The relationship between the average price of magazines in the two months is ...

  80/(x-7) -80/(x) = 0.70 . . . . . . . . .Jan price - Dec price = 0.70

  80(x) -80(x -7) = 0.70(x)(x-7) . . . . multiply by the denominators

  0.7x^2 -4.9x +560 = 0 . . . . . . . . put in standard form

  x^2 -7x +800 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.7

  (x -32)(x +25) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor

The product is zero when one of the factors is zero. x=32 or -25. The sensible solution for this problem is x=32.

The school library subscribed to 32 magazines in December.

In a recent? year, person A and person B had two concert? tours, and together they generated $ 192.9 million in ticket sales. If
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: Person A generates 107.6 millions and person B generates 85.3 millions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' millions be the amount generated by person A then the amount generated by person B be 'x-22.3' millions.

Since they both earn together $192.9 millions.

So according to the our assumptions we have,

x+x-22.3=192.9\\\Rightarrow\ 2x=192.9+22.3\\\Rightarrow\ 2x=215.2\\\Rightarrow\ x=107.6

Therefore, the amount generated by person A=107.6 millions

And the amount generated by person B= 192.9 millions - 107.6 millions

=85.3 millions
