At a carnival, food tickets cost $2 each and ride tickets cost $3 each. A total of $1,240 was collected at the carnival. The num

ber of food tickets sold was 10 less than twice the number of ride tickets sold.
The system of equations represents x, the number of food tickets sold, and y, the number of ride tickets sold.

2x + 3y = 1240

x = 2y – 10

How many of each type of ticket were sold?

2(2y-10)+3y=1240
7y-20=1240
7y=1260
y=180
2x+3(180)=1240
2x+540=1240
2x=700
x=350
So they sold 350 food tickets and 180 ride tickets in total.

Answer:

Here, x represents the umber of food tickets sold and  y represents the number of ride tickets sold.

Given the system of equations:

2x+3y = 1240         ....[1]

x = 2y-10              ....[2]

Substitute the equation [2] into [1] we have;

2(2y-10)+3y = 1240

Using distributive property,

a \cdot(b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c

4y-20+3y = 1240

Combine like terms;

7y-20 = 1240

Add 20 to both sides we have;

7y= 1260

Divide both sides by 7 we have;

y = 180

Substitute this in [2] we have;

x = 2(180)-10 = 360-10 = 350

therefore, each type of ticket were sold are:

the number of food tickets sold is, 350 and the number of ride tickets sold is, 180

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the integer be 6 for even and 7 for odd (say)

For 6, we divide by 2, now get 3.  Now we multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 10. Now since 10 is even divide by 5, now multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 16.  Now divide by 2 again by 2 again by 2 again by 2 till we get rid of even numbers.

The result is 1, so multiply by 3 and add 1 we get 4 now divide 2 times by 2 to get 1, thus this result now again repeats after 2 times.

Say if we select off number 3, multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 10 now divide by 5, now repeat the same process as above for 5 until we get 1 and it gets repeated every third time.

Thus whether odd or even after some processes, we get 1 and the process again and again returns to 1.

Use complete sentences to describe the range of the sine function.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
The Range of a function is the set of all values that that function can take.

Given the sine function f(x)=sinx,

This function is the function which calculates the sine of the values of x.

According to the definition of the sine of an angle x in the unit circle, 

-1 \leq sinx \leq 1,

so the sine of an angle is always larger or equal to -1, and smaller or equal to 1.

This means that the values that the sine function takes are any values between -1 and 1, inclusive.

This determines the Range of the sine function. 

So the Range of the sine function is [-1, 1]

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$95.78

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = 300t / (2t² + 8)

t = 0 corresponds to the beginning of August.  t = 1 corresponds to the end of August.  t = 2 corresponds to the end of September.  So on and so forth.  So the second semester is from t = 5 to t = 10.

$T₂ = ∫₅¹⁰ 300t / (2t² + 8) dt

$T₂ = ∫₅¹⁰ 150t / (t² + 4) dt

$T₂ = 75 ∫₅¹⁰ 2t / (t² + 4) dt

$T₂ = 75 ln(t² + 4) |₅¹⁰

$T₂ = 75 ln(104) − 75 ln(29)

$T₂ ≈ 95.78
