A charter airline finds that on its Saturday flights from Philadelphia to London all 180 seats will be sold if the ticket price is $200. However, for each $3 increase in ticket price, the number of seats sold decreases by one. (a) Find a formula for the number of seats sold S if the ticket price is P dollars.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]S = -\dfrac{1}{3}P+\dfrac{740}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of seats sold is 180 with ticket price $200.

Number of seats decreases by one when the ticket price is increased by $3.

To find:

The formula for the number of seats sold (S) when the ticket price is P dollars.

Solution:

It is linear dependency of number of seats sold, S on ticket price, P.

[tex]S\propto P[/tex]

It can be written as:

[tex]S = kP+C[/tex]

Where [tex]k[/tex] is the constant of proportionality and

[tex]C[/tex] is a constant.

Now, putting the given values:

[tex]180 = 200k +C ..... (1)[/tex]

[tex]179 = 203k+C[/tex] ...... (2)

Subtracting (1) from (2):

[tex]3k = -1\\\Rightarrow k =-\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Putting the value in (1):

[tex]\Rightarrow C = 180+\dfrac{200}{3} = \dfrac{740}{3}[/tex]

Therefore the equation becomes:

[tex]S = -\dfrac{1}{3}P+\dfrac{740}{3}[/tex]

What is the slope and y intercept for 14X - 7Y = 28

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x - 4 (the slope is 2 or 2/1 and the y-intercept is -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 14x from both sides of the equation.

This should get you  -7y = 28 - 14x.

Then you need to divide by -7 on both sides.

y = -4 + 2x is the result

which you can switch around if you like and get y = 2x - 4

Why is it essential to know how to solve Exponential equations in order to solve Logarithmic equations? (Make sure to fully explain).

Answers

Answer:

Because you need it for your later life and for your GCSES and if you dont want to fail then you will need it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an exponential equation in which a common base cannot be found, solve for the unknown. Apply the logarithm of both sides of the equation. If one of the terms in the equation has base 10, use the common logarithm. If none of the terms in the equation has base 10, use the natural logarithm.

What is the answer for 4(2p-8)-6p=20+4(p+6)

Answers

Hello! :)

[tex]\large\boxed{p = -38}[/tex]

4(2p - 8) - 6p = 20 + 4(p + 6)

Distribute the coefficients outside of the parenthesis:

4(2p) + 4(-8) - 6p = 20 + 4(p) + 4(6)

8p - 32 - 6p = 20 + 4p + 24

Combine like terms:

2p - 32 = 44 + 4p

Subtract 2p from both sides:

-32 = 44 + 2p

Subtract 44 from both sides:

-76 = 2p

Divide both sides by 2:

p = -38.

Answer p = -4

6p + 2(4 + -2p) = 3(p + 4)

6p + (4 * 2 + -2p * 2) = 3(p + 4)

6p + (8 + -4p) = 3(p + 4)

8 + 6p + -4p = 3(p + 4)

8 + 2p = 3(p + 4)

8 + 2p = 3(4 + p)

8 + 2p = (4 * 3 + p * 3)

8 + 2p = (12 + 3p)

8 + 2p = 12 + 3p

 

8 + 2p + -3p = 12 + 3p + -3p

 

8 + -1p = 12 + 3p + -3p

8 + -1p = 12 + 0

8 + -1p = 12

 

8 + -8 + -1p = 12  

0 + -1p = 12 + -8

-1p = 12 + -8

 

-1p = 4

p = -4

There are currently 73 million cars in a certain country, decreasing by 1.7% annually.
How many years will it take for this country to have 54 million cars? Round to the
nearest year.

Answers

Answer:

17.6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

There are currently 73 million cars in a certain country, decreasing by 1.7% annually.

How many years will it take for this country to have 54 million cars? Round to the

nearest year.

We use the formula

y = a(1 - r)^t

a = Initial amount = 73 million cars

y = Future amount = 54 million cars

r = decreasing rate = 1.7 % = 0.017

t = time is unknown

54,000,000 = 73,000,000(1 - 0.017)^t

Divide both sides by 73,000,000

54,000,000/73,000,000 = (0.983)^t

0.7397260274 = (0.983)^t

Take the logarithm of both sides

log 0.7397260274 = Log (0.983)^t

log 0.7397260274 =t log (0.983)

t = log 0.7397260274/log 0.983

t = -0.13092910029/-0.00744648216

t = 17.5826783005 years

Approximately = t = 17.6 years

Alex bought a new aquarium. He is in the process of setting it up. The aquarium is in the shape of a right rectangular
prism and the dimensions, in inches, are 367 x 19 x 24. During the set-up, Alex fills the aquarium with 6,039
ins of water.
What percent of the volume of the aquarium is filled with water? Round your answer to the nearest whole percent.
Enter your answer in the space provided.

Answers

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for volume of a right rectangular prism is;

V = lwh

Where;

l is length

w is width

h is height

We are given l = 367; w = 24; h = 19

Thus;

Volume is;

V_full = 367 × 24 × 19

V_full = 167352 in³

We are told that Alex filled the aquarium with 6039 in³ of water.

Thus, percentage of the aquarium filled with water is;

(6039/167352) × 100% = 3.61%

Approximating to nearest percent gives; 4%

Answers

Explanation:

720/6 = 120

44 x 120 = 5280

Answer:

$5280

Hope this helps!!!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 6 notebooks = 720

Then, cost of 1 notebook = 720/6

Therefore, cost of 44 notebooks = 720/6 x 44

= 120 x 44

= 5,280

Therefore, the cost of 44 notebooks will be 5,280

Which equation has a center at (2, 1) and a point on the circle of (2, -3)?
O (x + 2)2 + (y + 1)2 = 16
O x - 2)2 + (y - 1)2 = 4
O(x - 2)2 + (y - 1)2 = 16
O (x + 2)2 + (y + 1)2 = 4

Answers

Answer:

Option 3: [tex](x-2)^2+(y-1)^2 = 16[/tex] is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

We will find the equation of the circle with given information and then compare with the choices given.

Given

Center = (h,k) = (2,1)

And point on circle = (2,-3)

The equation of circle is given as:

[tex](x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2[/tex]

The distance between center and point on circle is the radius. So using the distance formula:

[tex]r = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\r = \sqrt{(2-2)^2+(-3-1)^2}\\r = \sqrt{(0)^2+(-4)^2}\\r = \sqrt{0+16}\\r = \sqrt{16}\\or\\r = 4[/tex]

Putting the values in equation of circle

[tex](x-2)^2+(y-1)^2 = 4^2\\(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2 = 16[/tex]

Hence,

Option 3: [tex](x-2)^2+(y-1)^2 = 16[/tex] is the correct answer

The table shows the outputs y, for different inputs ,x

Part A: Do the data in this table represent a function? Justify your answer.

Part B: Compare the data in the table with the relation f(x) = 5x-21. Which relation has a greater value when x=11

Part C: Using the relation in part b, what is the value of x if f(x) =99

Answers

Part A: Yes, the data represent a function. The definition of a function is a relation in which no value of x will have two different values of y.

(Every time you plug in 3 as x, you will always get 4 as y; it's ok if you plug in 3 and 5 as x and get the same y, you just can't get two different y's for one x; sorry, it is pretty confusing). None of the numbers in the table repeat, so we can safely say that the relation is a function.

Part B: All we have to do is plug in 11 for x in the function given to find the answer:

In the table, y = 8 when x = 11, but in the function given, y = 34 when x = 11, so the function given is greater.

Part C: To find the answer to C, just plug in 99 for f(x), as it tells you to do:
