tickets at a particular movie theater have different rates for adults and children. On tuesday the theater sold 8 adult tickets and 9 tickets for 174. the next day the theater sold 5 adult tickets and 7 children tickets for 117. What is the price for the adult ticket and the price for the child ticket

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Adult = $15 pp

Child =  46 pp

Step-by-step explanation:

  Let A and C be the price of Adult and Child's tickets, respectively.

 We can set up equations for each of the two days, Tuesday and Wednesday.  Each equation adds the totals paid for the two ticket levels and set it equal to the total income for that day:

Tues:  8A+9C=174

Wed:   5A+7C=117

We have two equations and two unknowns.  Let's manipulate one of the equations in a way that allows us to eliminate one of the two variables, A or C.  [One can also solve either equation to isolate one of the variables, and then use that in the second equation.]

I chose to multiply the first by 5 and the second by -8, in order to make the coefficients for A the same value in both equations, but opposite in sign:

Tues:   40A+45C   =  870   [Multiply by 5]

Wed:  -40A -56C = -936     [Multiply by -8]

                      -11C = -66      [Add the two equations]

C = 6                                    [Ta Da.  Now use this price for a child's ticket in either of the original equations to find the cost of an adult ticket.]

8A+9C=174

8A+9*(6)=174

8A+54=174

8A   = 120

A  =  15

====

Use these two prices in the original equations to see if they indeed add up to the correct totals for each day.

                                                       Total Sales

Price     Tues     Wed          Tues  Wed    

A   15           8          5              120    75

C    6           9            7               54    42

               174        117              174   117 [The prices are correct]

Adult is $15 and child is $6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is Finite Math, I got this hehe :)

To find the answer, first you need to understand what R means.

It stands for "row". So R1 means "Row 1".

So: -3R1 + R3 means that you need to multiply -3 by all of the numbers in row 1 and then add all of the numbers in row 3

[0   3   1   -1   l  6]

[0  1   -1   -7  l  0]

[3  0  -2   2   l  12]

[4  1    5   3   l   7]

Then use ^^THAT^^ and apply the next set of instructions.

-4R1 + R4 means that you multiply -4 by all of the numbers in row 1 and then add all of the numbers in row 4:

[4  -11    1   7   l  -17]

[0  1   -1   -7  l  0]

[3  0  -2   2   l  12]

[4   1   5   3   l   7]

Harry spends $7.83 on 3 bags of walnuts. The bags all cost the same amount. What is the cost of each bag?

Answers

i think the cost of each bag is $2.61

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose the cost of each bag is $x

7.83 = 3x

7.83/3 = x

2.61 = x

so the cost of each bag is $2.61

2.61$ if you take 7.83 and divide it by 3 then you will have your answer.

Answers

The system of linear inequalities represented by the graph is 2 < x < 3.

What are inequalities and their types?

Inequality is a relation that compares two numbers or other mathematical expressions in an unequal way.

The symbol a < b indicates that a is smaller than b.

When a > b is used, it indicates that a is bigger than b.

a is less than or equal to b when a notation like a ≤ b.

a is bigger or equal value of an is indicated by the notation a ≥ b.

The dotted lines represents strictly less than or greater than inequalities.

Inequality 1 represents x > 2 and inequality 2 represents x < 3.

The combined inequality can be represented as 2 < x < 3.

Answers

Jill will take 120 minutes to paint a room

Jim will take 180 minutes to paint a room

All together Jim and Jill will take 200 minutes to paint a room

Answer:

  72 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the rates of work in rooms per hour is ...

  Jill's rate + Jim's rate

  = (1/2 room/hour) +(1/3 room/hour) = (3/6 +2/6 room/hour) = 5/6 room/hour

__

Then the combined rate in hours per room is ...

  1/(5/6 room/hour) = 6/5 hours/room = (6/5 hours/room)(60 minutes/hour)

  = 72 minutes per room

Jill and Jim can paint the room in 72 minutes when they work together.

Angela is following this recipe to make biscuits.
Angela uses 1.1 litres of syrup.
How much sugar is needed in kg?

Recipe: Makes 14 biscuits
110 g margarine
100 g sugar
275 ml syrup
200 g oats
50 g sultanas

Answers

Answer:

  0.4 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportion can be used to find the amount of sugar.

  x/(1.1 L) = (0.1 kg)/(0.275 L)

  x = (1.1)(0.1)/0.275 kg = 0.4 kg

Angela needs 0.4 kg of sugar for her biscuits.

Let a and b be real numbers where ab+0. Which of the following functions could represent the graph below?

O f(x) = (x – a)2(x – 614
O f(x) = x(x – a) (x – 5)2
O f(x) = (x – a)5(x – b)

Answers

The following functions could represent the graph below then the correct option is B; y =  (x - a)^2 (x - b)^4.

What is graph ?

A graph contains data of which input maps to which output.

Analysis of this leads to the relations which were used to make it.

we have given that a and b are real numbers different than zero.

From the graph, we can see that the line touches the x-axis in two values.

Now, if we would have an equation such as:

y = x(x - a)^3 (x - b)^3

then when x = 0

y = 0(0-a)^3 (0-b)^3

y = 0

But in the graph, we can see that when x = 0, the value of y is different than zero,

(For example, if x > a and x < b we would have a negative value for y)

Then the correct option is B ;y =  (x - a)^2 (x - b)^4

C. y = 8x+1, because the y-intercept of the
function represented by the table of values is 2
D. y = 8x + 1, because the y-intercept of the
function represented by the table of values is 5

Answers

Answer: Choice B

y = x+9 because the y-intercept of the function represented by the table is 5.

============================================================

Explanation:

Let's focus on the first two rows of the table. Plug those coordinates into the slope formula below.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (13-9)/(4-2)

m = 4/2

m = 2

The slope is 2.

Then we'll use something like (x,y) = (2,9) along with the slope we found to determine the y intercept b

y = mx+b

y = 2x+b

9 = 2*2+b

9 = 4+b

9-4 = b

5 = b

b = 5

The equation for the table is y = 2x+5

We can check this by seeing that x = 6 leads to y = 2*x+5 = 2*6+5 = 17. I'll let you check the other x values of the table.

Because y = 2x+5 has a y intercept of 5, we're going to aim for answer choice B. The y intercept of y = x+9 is 9 which is larger than what we just found.
