Answer:

250 adult tickets and 150 children's tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

x=number of adult tickets

y=number of children tickets

8x+5y=2760

x+y=400

Multiply the second equation by 8

8(x+y=400)

8x+8y=3200

8x+5y=2750

8x+8y=3200

Subtract

8x-8x=0

5y-8y=-3y

2750-3200=-450

-3y=-450

Divide by -3 on both sides

y=150

Go back and insert y into any of the equations

x+150=400

Subtract

400-150=250

x=250

There are 250 adult tickets and 150 children's tickets.

Which shows one way to determine the factors of 12x3 – 2x2 + 18x – 3 by grouping?
AleksAgata [21]

we are given

12x^3-2x^2+18x-3

Firstly, we will split terms

2x^2*6x-1*2x^2+3*6x-1*3

We can group first two and last two terms

(2x^2*6x-1*2x^2)+(3*6x-1*3)

we can see that 2x^2 is common in first two terms

and 3 is common in last two terms

so, we can factor factor out 2x^2 from first group and 3 from second group

we get

=2x^2(6x-1)+3(6x-1)

we can see that each terms are multiple of 6x-1

so, we can factor out 6x-1

so, we get

12x^3-2x^2+18x-3 =(2x^2+3)(6x-1)............Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

USL = 350+18 = 368

z = (USL-Mean)/6*σ = (368-350)/6*σ

σ = 3/0.9999966 = 3.00 (approx)

How might you prove your observations about the slope of a midsegment in part d using algebra and x- and y-coordinates? Briefly
ioda

Answer: I can use variables to represent the coordinates of the vertices for a general triangle ABC. then I can calculate the midpoints of the sides in terms of the same variables, and calculate the slope of each midsegment showing that the expression for the slope of a midsegment is the same as the expression for the slope of the third side of the triangle proves that the two are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation: this is word for word btw!
