A group of 2 adults and 4 children spent $38 on tickets to a museum. A group of 3 adults and 3 children spent $40.50 on tickets to the museum. Based on this information, how much is an adult ticket, and how much is a child ticket?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

adult $8.00

child $5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of 1 adult ticket = x.

Let the price of 1 child ticket = y.

2x + 4y = 38

3x + 3y = 40.5

Multiply the first equation by 3. Multiply the second equation by -2. Then add them.

         6x + 12y = 114

(+)      -6x - 6y = -81

-----------------------------

                  6y = 33

y = 33/6

y = 5.5

2x + 4y = 38

2x + 4(5.5) = 38

2x + 22 = 38

2x = 16

x = 8

Answer:

adult $8.00

child $5.50

Answer 2

Answer:

An adult ticket is $8.00 and a child's ticket is $5.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We form a system of 2 equations and solve them.

Let a be the price of adult ticket and c the price of a child's.

2a + 4c = 38         (A)

3a + 3c = 40.5      (B)

Multiply equation A by 3 and equation B by -2:

6a + 12c = 114

-6a - 6c = -81        Adding these 2 equations:

0 + 6c = 33

c = 33/6 = 5.5.

Now we substitute for c in equation A:

2a + 4(5.5) = 38

2a = 38 - 22

2a = 16

a = 6.

Let's now check these results by substitution in equation B:

3a + 3c = 40.5

3(8) + 3(5.5) = 24.0 + 16.5 = 40.5

- so it checks out.

Given [tex]y = x^3 - 2x[/tex] for [tex]x \geq 0[/tex], find the equation of the tangent line to y where the absolute value of the slope is minimized.

I have tried taking both the first and second derivatives and setting them equal to 0 and using that as the answer, but they're incorrect. Could somebody please explain how to complete the question correctly? Thank you so much!

Answers

Answer:  y = (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3)

This is the same as writing [tex]y = -\frac{4}{3}\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]

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

Explanation:

The phrasing "where the absolute value of the slope is minimized" is an interesting way of saying "the tangent slope is 0". This is because absolute values are never negative, so the smallest it can get is 0.

Your teacher has given you

y = x^3 - 2x

which differentiates into

dy/dx = 3x^2 - 2

after using the power rule

The derivative function lets us determine the slope of the tangent. The slope is the dy/dx value. Since we want a slope of 0, we'll set 3x^2-2 equal to zero and solve for x. So you have the correct idea, but you won't involve the second derivative.

dy/dx = 0

3x^2 - 2 = 0

3x^2 = 2

x^2 = 2/3

x = sqrt(2/3)

Notice how I'm ignoring the negative version of this root. This is due to the fact that [tex]x \ge 0[/tex]

-------------------------

Now plug this x value back into the original equation to find its corresponding y coordinate.

y = x^3 - 2x

y = x(x^2 - 2)

y = sqrt(2/3)*( 2/3 - 2 )

y = sqrt(2/3)*( -4/3 )

y = (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3)

Note that x = sqrt(2/3) leads to x^2 = 2/3 after squaring both sides.

-------------------------

Therefore, the equation of this tangent line is y = (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3)

All horizontal lines are of the form y = k, for some constant k. This constant value is basically what number you want the horizontal line to go through on the y axis. That number would be (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3).

In the following diagram, BAC = 46 degrees, and AD is the bisector of BAC. Find BDA

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of the function are the values of x that make the factors zero:

The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = -3/2.

Steve works two different jobs for a total of 60 hours every Monday through Friday schedule is the same each day and he works three hours a day at his first job how many hours a day does he work at his second job

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Steve works:

- 60 hour per week = 12 hours per day (60/5)

- first job: 3 hours per day = 15 hours per week

- x = second job hours per day

equitation:

1st option to calculate:

12 (total hours per day) = 3 (hours per day on first job) + X

9 = X

2nd option to calculate:

60(total hours per week) = 15 (3 hours per day x 5) + x

45 = x

you need to divide 45 / 5 to get the daily hours which is 9

with a = 5 and b = (a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4(x-8)=12

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3*3/4(x-8)=12*4/3

x-8 = 16

Add 8 to each side

x-8+8 = 16+8

x=24

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, you need to break this apart.

You need to isolate the x to figure it out with division or something.

To isolate, you need to get rid of the numbers around it.

To get rid of the 3/4, you can convert it to a decimal to make it easier, and then divide both sides by 0.75 to get rid of it on the x's side.

You now have

x-8 = 12/0.75

You can quickly punch the right side into a calculator to make it easier.

x - 8 = 16

You then add 8 to both sides to finish off the x, to get

x = 24

Since -3/5 > -0.8, this means -3/5 is to the right of -0.8

Larger stuff is to the right of smaller stuff. Another example would be 10 > 7, meaning we have 10 to the right of 7 since 10 is larger.

Any negative value is always to the left of 0, so -3/5 is to the left of 0.

The sum of 30 terms of series in A.P, whose last term is 98, is 1635. Find the first term and the common difference.​

Answers

Let a(n) denote the n-th term in the sequence. Because the terms are in arithmetic progression, there is a fixed number d that separates consecutive terms, so that starting with a(1) = a, the next few terms are

a(2) = a(1) + d = a + d

a(3) = a(2) + d = a + 2d

a(4) = a(3) + d = a + 3d

and so on, up to

a(n) = a + (n - 1) d

We're given that the 30th term is 98, so

a(30) = a + 29d = 98

The sum of the first 30 terms is 1635, so that

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{30}a(n) = \sum_{n=1}^{30}(a+(n-1)d) \\\\ 1635 = a\sum_{n=1}^{30}1 + d\sum_{n=1}^{30}(n-1) \\\\ 1635 = 30a + d\sum_{n=0}^{29}n \\\\ 1635 = 30a + d\sum_{n=1}^{29}n \\\\ 1635 = 30a + \frac{d\times29\times30}2[/tex]

so that

30a + 435d = 1635

Solve the equations in boldface for a and d. I'll eliminate a and solve for d first.

-30 (a + 29d) + (30a + 435d) = -30 (98) + 1635

-30a - 870d + 30a + 435d = -2940 + 1635

-435d = -1305

d = 3

Then

a + 29 (3) = 98

a + 87 = 98

a = 11
