Tickets for the baseball games were $2.50 for general admission and 50 cents for kids. If there were six times as many general a
Makovka662 [10]
There was 3000 general admission tickets sold and 500 kid ticket sold.

How did I get this?

First, we need to see what information we have.
$2.50 = General admission tickets = (G)
 $0.50 = kids tickets =  (K)
There were 6x as many general admission tickets sold as kids. G = 6K

We need two equations:
G = 6K  
$2.50G + $.50K = $7750
Since, G = 6K we can substitute that into the 2nd equation.

2.50(6K) + .50K = 7750
Distribute 2.50 into the parenthesis

15K + .50K = 7750
combine like terms

15.50K = 7750
Divide both sides by 15.50, the left side will cancel out.

K = 7750/15.50
K = 500 tickets
So, 500 kid tickets were sold.

Plug K into our first equation (G = 6k)

G = 6*500
G = 3000 tickets

So, 3000 general admission tickets were sold,

Let's check this:

$2.50(3000 tickets) = $7500 (cost of general admission tickets)
$.50(500 tickets) = $250 (cost of general admission tickets)
$7500 + $250 = $7750 (total cost of tickets)

Otto used 6 cups of whole wheat flour and x cups of white flour in the recipe. What is the equation that can be used to find the
RoseWind [281]
Well, there are x amounts of white flower and 6 cups of wheat flower.

So the total flower is x+6

Given that y is the total, the equation you would use is:
y=x+6

The constraints are as follows:
y can only be \geq 6

And if y=0, x would have to be -6 (which is impossible)

The vertex of a parabola is (-2, -20), and its y-intercept is (0, -12).
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

y=2x^2+8x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the quadratic equation, begin by writing it in vertex form  

y = a(x-h)^2+k

Where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola.

Here the vertex is (-2,-20). Substitute and write:

y=a(x--2)^2+-20\\y=a(x+2)^2-20

To find a, substitute one point (x,y) from the parabola into the equation and solve for a. Plug in (0,-12) the y-intercept of the parabola.

-12=a((0)+2)^2-20\\-12=a(2)^2-20\\-12=4a-20\\8=4a\\2=a

The vertex form of the equation is y=2(x+2)^2-20.

You can convert this into standard form by using the distributive property.

y=2(x+2)^2-20\\y=2(x^2+4x+4)-20\\y=2x^2+8x+8-20\\y=2x^2+8x-12

Alik [6]

Answer:

\frac{3x+6}{x^{2}-x-6 } +\frac{2x}{x^{2} +x-12}=\frac{5x+12}{x^{2} +x-12}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

\frac{3x+6}{x^{2}-x-6 } +\frac{2x}{x^{2} +x-12}

First, we need to factor each part of the expression

\frac{3(x+2)}{(x+2)(x-3)} +\frac{2x}{(x-3)(x+4)}

Remember that quadractic expression are factored in two binomial factors. The first quadratic expression factors are about two numbers which product is 6 and which difference is one. The second quadratic expression is about two numbers which product is 12 and which difference is 1.

Now, we simplify equal expression at each fraction.

\frac{3}{(x-3)} +\frac{2x}{(x-3)(x+4)}

Then, we use the least common factor about the denominators to sum those fractions. In this case, the least common factor is (x-3)(x+4), because those are the factors present in the denominators.

Now, we divide each fraction by the least common factor, and then multiply the numeratos by its result.

\frac{3(x+4)+2x}{(x-3)(x+4)}

Finally, we multiply all products and sum like terms.

\frac{3x+12+2x}{x^{2} +4x-3x-12}=\frac{5x+12}{x^{2} +x-12}

Therefore, the sum of the initial expression is equal to

\frac{5x+12}{x^{2} +x-12}
