Answer:

  • adult: $11
  • child: $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a and c represent the costs of adult and child tickets, respectively. Then the two purchases can be described by ...

  2a +4c = 46 . . . . . . Sue's purchase

  4a +7c = 86 . . . . . . Karen's purchase

__

The system can be solved by subtracting the second equation from twice the first:

  2(2a +4c) -(4a +7c) = 2(46) -(86)

  c = 6 . . . . . . . simplify

We can substitute this value into half the first equation to find "a".

  a +2(6) = 23

  a = 23 -12 = 11

The cost of 1 adult ticket is $11; the cost of one child ticket is $6.

An internet service provider is implementing a new program based on the number of connected devices in each household. Currently
erica [24]

The current rate is simply equal to $175 per month, let us call this as rate A:

A = 175

 

The new rate is $94 plus $4.50 per devices, let us call this as rate B:

B = 94 + 4.50 x

where x is the number of devices connected to the network

 

The inequality equation for us to find x which the new plan is less than current plan is:

94 + 4.50 x < 175

 

Solving for x:

4.50 x < 81

x < 18

So the number of devices must be less than 18.

 

 

- From the graph, we can actually see that the new rate intersects the current rate at number of devices equal to 18. So it should really be below 18 devices.

In △ABC,c=71, m∠B=123°, and a=65. Find b.<br><br> A. 101.5<br> B. 117.8<br> C. 123.0<br> D. 119.6
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The questions which involve calculating the angles and the sides of a triangle either require the sine rule or the cosine rule. In this question, the two sides that are given are adjacent to each other the given angle is the included angle. This means that the angle B is formed by the intersection of the lines a and c. Therefore, cosine rule will be used to calculate the length of b. The cosine rule is:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*cos(B).

The question specifies that c=71, B=123°, and a=65. Plugging in the values:

b^2 = 65^2 + 71^2 - 2(65)(71)*cos(123°).

Simplifying gives:

b^2 = 14293.0182932.

Taking square root on the both sides gives b = 119.6 (rounded to the one decimal place).

This means that the Option D is the correct choice!!!
