Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using elimination, and fill in
the blanks.
The manager at a community pool is looking over receipts. On a certain Monday, the pool had
16 children and 42 adults, which brought in $142. That same week on Tuesday, 24 children
and 26 adults came to the pool, which brought in $102. What are the admission prices for
children and adults?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  Child is $1 and Adult is $3, per person.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two unknowns, so we need at least two equations.  Let C and A stand for the price of a ticket for a child and an adult, respectively.

The income for Monday and Tuesday can be calculated:

Monday:   16C + 42A = $142

Tuesday:  24C + 26A = $102

Rearrange the second equation to isolate one of the variables.  I'll pick C:

24C + 26A = $102

C  = ($102 - 26A)/24

Now use this expression for C in the first equation

16C + 42A = $142

16(($102 - 26A)/24) + 42A = $142

16(($102 - 26A)/24) + 42A = $142

(1632 - 416A)/24 + 42A = $142

(68 - 17.3333A + 42A = $142

24.6667A = 74

A = 3  [The price of an adult pool admission is $3]

Use this value in either equation to find the price of a child's admission:

24C + 26A = $102

24C + 26*($3) = $102

24C = 102 - 78

C = $1   [The price of a child's admission to the pool is $1]

Check to see if these prices satisfy both equations:

Monday:   16C + 42A = $142

Tuesday:  24C + 26A = $102

---

Monday:   16*(1) + 42*(3)  = $142   ?   YES

Tuesday:  24*(1) + 26*(3) = $102   ?    YES

Child is $1 and Adult is $3, per person.

6x+3y=-3 how to graph it need answers quick

Answers

Answer:

Equation in slope intercept form: y = -2x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you must convert this equation from standard form to slope intercept form (y=mx+b).

Subtract 6x on both sides to get 3y = -6x - 3. Then divide by 3 on both sides to get y = -2x - 1.

Now to graph:

First we will plot the y-intercept, which will be (0,-1). The point will be on the y-axis, since that's the point in which the line will cross.

Next we will go down 2 units and over to the right 1 unit, until we get to the next point.

Tony Peyton, age 20, would like to have $1,000,000 by the time he is 65 years of age. If Tony could earn 6.9% annual interest compounded monthly, how much must he invest now to have $1,000,000 by the time he is 65?

Answers

Using compound interest, it is found that he must invest $45,225 now.

Compound interest:

[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

A(t) is the amount of money after t years.  P is the principal(the initial sum of money).  r is the interest rate(as a decimal value).  n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.  t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this problem:

He wants to have $1,000,000 in 65 - 20 = 45 years, hence [tex]t = 45, A(t) = 1000000[/tex].6.9% annual interest, hence [tex]r = 0.069[/tex].Compounded monthly, hence [tex]n = 12[/tex].

Then:

[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]1000000 = P\left(1 + \frac{0.069}{12}\right)^{12(45)}[/tex]

[tex]P = \frac{1000000}{(1.00575)^{540}}[/tex]

[tex]P = 45225[/tex]

He must invest $45,225 now.

The two triangles are similar, ABC is an enlargement of RST by scale factor 2.5. So all lengths are 2.5 times larger than the lengths for RST

Adding these together gives us 75 for the perimeter

B) 30

We can work out the missing side of RST using Pythagoras’ theorem, it is 12
(12x5)/2 = 30

C) 187.5

Answers

Answer:

70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The V angle is complementary with the R which means that

120° + V angle = 180° Therefore V = 60°

The sum of the internal angles of the triangles equals 180.

We have 50° + 60° + U = 180

Given −7 is one of the roots of the quadratic equation
(x + k)2 = 16, where k is a constant, find the values of k.

Answers

Answer:

  k = {3, 11}

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the square root of the given equation, we find ...

  x +k = ±4

For x = -7, this is ...

  -7 +k = ±4

  k = 7 ±4 = {3, 11}

Possible values of k are 3 and 11.

[tex]\huge\bf\underline{\underline{\pink{A}\orange{N}\blue{S}\green{W}\red{E}\purple{R:-}}}[/tex]

Taking square root on the both sides of equation (x + k)² = 16 we get,

[tex]\implies\rm{( {x + k)}^{2} } = 16[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{x + k = ± 4}[/tex]

Making two conditions for ± 4 i.e

1) x + k = 4

[tex]\implies\rm{ - 7 + k = 4}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{k = 4 + 7}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{k = 11}[/tex]

2) x + k = -4

[tex]\implies\rm{ - 7 + k = - 4}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{k = - 4 + 7}[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{k = 3}[/tex]

Thus the values of k can be either 11 or 3.

The simple interest  follows this formula:

I = C x r% x t

– C would be the capital; the money that is provided (in this case, $1600)

– r would be the rate, which could be annual, monthly, etc. In this scenario, it's  not specified. Therefore, we assume that it's annual as the time is given in years. (It would be equal to 2,75, but don't forget about the percent symbol %, which is equal to 1/100)

– Finally, t stands for time.

Remember that both time and rate must be in the same measurement (annual, monthly, etc).

You multiple everything, and the result is $132

Explanation:

1/6 cup of glitter is needed for each 1/3 cup of glue. We want that "1/3 cup of glue" to be "1 cup of glue". So we'll multiply each part by 3.

3*(1/6) = 3/6 = 1/23*(1/3) = 3/3 = 1

The ratio 1/6 : 1/3 updates to 1/2 : 1 to tell us that we need 1/2 cup of glitter to pair with 1 cup of glue.
