Mr. Accardi sold 600 tickets for the high school play. If adult tickets cost $6.00 each and student tickets cost $4.00 each, how many of each type of ticket did he sell if $2,900.00 was collected in ticket money?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Total number of tickets = 600

Cost of adult ticket = $6.00

Cost of student ticket = $4.00

Total sales = $2900.00

To find:

The number of tickets of each type.

Solution:

Let the number of adult tickets be x and number of student tickets be y.

According to the question,

[tex]x+y=600[/tex]        ...(i)

[tex]6x+4y=2900[/tex]      ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 4 and subtract the result from (ii),

[tex]6x+4y-4(x+y)=2900-4\times 600[/tex]

[tex]6x+4y-4x-4y=2900-2400[/tex]

[tex]2x=500[/tex]

Divide both sides of 2.

[tex]x=250[/tex]

Put x=250 in (i).

[tex]250+y=600[/tex]

[tex]y=600-250[/tex]

[tex]y=350[/tex]

Therefore, number of adult tickets is 250 and number of student tickets is 350.

How do functions work? Could someone explain how to know which questions are functions or not

Answers

Answer:

A function is an equation that has only one answer for y for every x. A function assigns exactly one output to each input of a speceified type. It is common to name a function either f(x) or g(x) instead of y. f(2) means that we should find the value of our function when x  equals 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

here is a step by step equation:

f(x) = x + 7

if:

x=2

then:

f(2) = 2 + 7 = 9

A function is linear if it can be defined by

f(x) = mx + b

Cj has $50 more than Jordan has. Together they have $100. How much does Jordan have?

Answers

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

take C as what Cj has, and J what Jordan has.

Cj has $50 more than Jordan has, so:

C = 50 + J

Together they have $100, so:

C + J = 100

is a system of 2 equations with 2 unknown (C and J):

C - J = 50

C + J = 100

Adding both equations:

2C = 150 ⇒ C = 75

From second equation: J = 25

The slope of the line is 2/5, and it contains the point: (−2, 7).

Answers

Answer:

y = 2/5x + 39/5

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope form is y = mx + b

so far we have y = 2/5x + b

m is slope which is given. We need to find b which is y-intercept.

They give us the point (-2,7). We can plug this into the equation to find b.

7 = 2/5(-2) + b

7 = -4/5 + b

b = 39/5

The equation now looks like y = 2/5x + 39/5

suppose y varies directly with x, and y=25 when x=140. what is the value of y when x=36

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{45}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct Proportions

A direct proportion is a relation between variables where their ratio is a constant value. This means that if y and x are proportional, then:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{y}{x}=k[/tex]

Where k is a constant.

We know y=25 when x=140, and it's required to find the value of when x=36.

For any pair of values (x,y), their ratio is constant:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{25}{140}=\frac{y}{36}[/tex]

Multiplying by 36:

[tex]\displaystyle y=36*\frac{25}{140}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{900}{140}[/tex]

Simplifying:

The ratio of the areas of similar polygons is 64: 16. What is the ratio of their sides

Answers

Answer:

8:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The ratio of the areas of similar polygons is 64: 16, A₁:A₂=64: 16

We need to find the ratio of their sides. For similar polygons, the ratio of  the area is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.

Let sides are x₁ and x₂. So,

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=(\dfrac{x_1}{x_2})^2\\\\\dfrac{x_1}{x_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}} \\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{64}{16}}\\\\=\dfrac{8}{4}[/tex]

So, the required ratio is 8:4.

Kyle deposited $1200 in a savings account that earns 4.25% simple annual interest. If kyle keep the money in the account for 4 years what is the new balance?

Answers

Answer:

If kyle keeps the money in the account for 4 years, the new balance is $1,417.37.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the formula to calculate the future value to find the money in the account after 4 years:

FV=PV*(1+i)^n

FV= future value

PV= present value=$1,200

i= interest rate=4.25%=0.0425

n=number of periods of time=4

FV=1,200*(1+0.0425)^4

FV=1,200*(1.0425)^4

FV=1,417.37

According to this, the answer is that if kyle keeps the money in the account for 4 years, the new balance is $1,417.37.

With a beginning balance of $1200 and no additional charges during the next three months, you will just pay the minimum payment each month for the next three months. The APR is 24.99% and the minimum payment each month is 3% of the balance.

Answers

Here is the complete question.

With a beginning balance of $1200 and no additional charges during the next three months, you will just pay the minimum payment each month for the next three months. The APR is 24.99% and the minimum payment each month is 3% of the balance. Determine the finance charge, new balance, and minimum payment required for each of the next three months, and the starting balance for month 4 in the table below.

a) What is the total of minimum payments?

b) What is the total sum of the finance charges?

c) How much does the starting balance decrease after these three payments?

d)The total of your finance charges is what percent of our total payments?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Month       Beginning        Finance          New               Minimum

                  Balance          Charge            Balance        Payment

1          $ 1200             24.99           1224.99            36.75

2          1188.24             24.75          1212.99            36.39

3          1176.60             24.50           1201.10            36.03

4          1165.07             24.26           1189.33             35.68

a.

The total minimum payments for 3 months = 36.75 + 36.39 + 36.03

The total minimum payments for 3 months = $ 109.17

b.

Total finance charges for 3 months = 24.99 + 24.75 + 24.50

Total finance charges for 3 months = $ 74.24

c. The starting balance decrease from 1200 to 1165.07, this implies that there is a reduction of $ 34.93

d. The total of finance charges = 74.24×(100/109.17)

The total of finance charges = 68% of total payments.
