Shanice's school made $850 by selling 125 tickets to the annual talent show. They sold adult
tickets for $10 and student tickets cost $6. How many adult tickets did they sell? How many
student tickets did they sell?
Write a system of equations to represent this situation. Define your variables.

Answers

Answer 1
Let S = student
Let A = adult
First equation is total tickets
Second should be the cost
S + A = 125
6S + 10A = 850
Use substitution or elimination
S + A = 125
S = -A + 125
I used substitution
6(-A + 125) + 10A = 850
-6A + 750 + 10A = 850
4A + 750 = 850
4A = 100, A = 25 adult tickets
125 - 25 = 100

Solution: 100 student tickets
Answer 2

Answer:

25 adult tickets were sold and 100 student tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

We know that the total amount collected from the tickets was $850, and that a total of 125 tickets were sold. We can use this information to come up with two equations.

10x + 6y = 850 - Equation 1

x + y = 125 - Equation 2

Then, use the substitution method to solve for either x or y first, followed by the other.

From equation two:

x + y = 125

x = 125 - y - Equation 3

Sub eqn 3 into eqn 1:

10(125-y) + 6y = 850

1250 - 10y + 6y = 850

1250 - 4y = 850

-4y = - 400

y - 100

Sub y = 100 into eqn 2:

x + 100 = 125

x = 25

Check:

10(25) + 6(100) = 850

Dr. Garica is twice as old as his son. Twenty years ago he was 4 times as old as his son was then. How old are they now?

Answers

Answer:

Let's let g = Dr. Garcia's age and s = his son's age.

g = 2s, right?

 

20 years ago, Dr. Garcia was g - 20 years old.  He was also 4(s - 20), 4 times his son's age 7 years ago.

 

g - 20 = 4(s - 20)

g - 20 = 4s - 80

 

In the first equation, we have g = 2s.  We are going to substitute this g into the second equation.

 

2s - 20 = 4s - 80

       60 = 2s

       s = 30

 

So, his son is 30 and Mr. Garcia is 60. 30 x 2 = 60.

 

20 years ago, his son would have been 10 and Mr. Garcia would have been 40.  10 x 4 = 40.

Answer:

Dr. Garcia's age is 60, and his son's age is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be Dr. Garcia's age, and y his son's age.

1. Dr. Garcia is twice as old as his son

x = 2 y

2. Twenty years ago, he was 4 times as old as his son was then

x - 20 = 4 (y - 20)

Substitute x in 2 and solve for y:

2 y - 20 = 4 (y - 20)

2 y - 20 = 4 y - 80

- 20 = 2 y - 80

60 = 2 y

y = 30

Put y back into 1:

x = 2 (30)

x = 60

So Dr. Garcia's age is 60, and his son's age is 30.

16. Guests who rent kayaks at a campground must pay an insurance fee and are charged
for each hour they use the kayak. Last year, the total cost for a guest to rent a kayak for
x hours was modeled by the expression 6 + 8x.
This year, the campground doubled the cost per hour for renting a kayak but kept the
insurance fee the same.
Which expression models the total cost for a guest to rent a kayak for x hours at the
campground this year?
A. 12 + 8x
B. 6 + 16x
C. 6 + 4x
D. 3 + 8x

Answers

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

I had this question on a test and got it right

The expression models that shows the total cost for a guest to rent a kayak for x hours is 6 + 16x.

What is the model about?

Note that in the question:

Last year = 6 + 8x.

Looking at the equation one can see that the premium is = 6

kayaks  is known to be charging at 8

So we have to double the value which is:

8 x 2 = 16

So therefore, the equation will be:

16x + 6

Therefore, The expression models that shows the total cost for a guest to rent a kayak for x hours is 6 + 16x.

Step-by-step explanation:

solution given:

making it a perfect square

we must make it on the form of (a+b)²or(a-b)²

so

x²-2*3*x+3²-3²-7=0

(x-3)²-9-7=0

(x-3)²-16=0

adding 16 on both aide

(x-3)²=16

doing square root on both side

x-3=±4

taking positive

x-3=4

adding 3 on both side

x=7

A. B = 55° or B = 125°
B. B = 67° or B = 102.2°
C. B = 62.4° or B = 117.6°
D. B = 59.6° or B = 120.40

Answers

Answer: option D. B = 59.6° or B' = 120.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the law is a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC you can try and verify each of them, by

10/sin(B)=......

and only B = 59.6° or B' = 120.4° give you the closed to 8.2/sin(45)= 11.59655121 which was 11.59401915.

(why the closed? because the question said it is "approximated")

The values of angles B and B' will be 59.6° and 120.4°, i.e. option C is the correct answer.

What is triangle ?

Triangle is a three sides two dimensional surface having three angles.

We have,

A triangle in which,

One of the angle is 45°, and the side opposite to angle 45° is 8.2 with corresponding angle B.

And the side opposite to angle B is 10.

Now,

Using the law of sine,

i.e.

[tex]\frac{SinA}{a} =\frac{SinB}{b} =\frac{Sin c}{c}[/tex]

So,

According to the given triangle,

We get,

[tex]\frac{Sin 45^0}{8.2} = \frac{Sin B}{10}[/tex]

We get,

[tex]Sin B=\frac{Sin 45^0}{8.2} *10[/tex]

On solving we get,

[tex]SinB= 59.58^0\ \ or\ \ SinB= 120.42[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]SinB= 59.6^0 \ \ or\ \ SinB'= 120.40[/tex]

So,

The option C is the correct answer.

Hence, we can say that the values of angles B and B' will be 59.6° and 120.4°, i.e. option C is the correct answer.

You are considering buying organic milk at the grocery store. A gallon of organic milk costs $1.00 more than a regular gallon of milk. Write an equation to represent the additional cost (C) of buying a gallon of organic mik over time (t) where x represents the cost of a gallon of regular milk​

Answers

Answer:

C= $1t + x

Step-by-step explanation:

So,  an organic gallon of milk is 1 dollar more then regular so the equation starts at $1 + x.

But then buying the organic milk over time is t so you add that to the one dollar since it applies to the organic milk. Now the equation is $1t + x.

But now, the expression we wrote is equal to C so, now the equation is C=$1t + x
