You can set up a system of equations for this problem. x= number of coach tickets and y = number of first class tickets.

$210x + $1200y = $10,230 (cost of coach ticket plus cost of first class tickets is total budget)

x + y = 11 (number of coach tickets plus number of first class tickets is total number of people)

Solve the second equation for y to get y = 11 - x, then plug that into the first equation and solve for x:

$210x + $1200(11 - x) = $10,230

$210x + $13,200 - $1200x = $10,230

-$990x + $13,200 = $10,230

-$990x = $2,970

x = 3


Sarah bought x = 3 coach tickets. Plug that into the second equation and solve for y:

3 + y = 11

y = 8


Sarah bought y = 8 first class tickets.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

9x⁻²  is not a polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial function is a function that involves non-negative integer powers of x such as a quadratic, cubic etc.

A polynomial is a function written in the form of ;

f{x} =aₙxⁿ+aₙ₋₁xⁿ⁻¹+-------+a₂x²+a₁x+a₀

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of x in the expression

9x⁻² ----in this case, the power is negative thus this is not a polynomial.
