Answer:

Part a) 3.5 weeks

Part b) 185 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) After how much time have the same number of tickets been sold for both festivals?

Let

x -----> the number of weeks

y ----> the number of tickets sold

we have

Country Music Festival

$y=10x+150$ ----> equation A

Pop Music Festival

$y=20x+115$ ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B

$20x+115=10x+150$

solve for x

$20x-10x=150-115$

$10x=35$

$x=3.5\ weeks$

Part b) What is the number of tickets sold at that time?

substitute the value of x=3.5 weeks in the linear equation A or linear equation B

$y=10(3.5)+150$

$y=35+150$

$y=185\ tickets$

Answer:

I don't think I can remember every skill I was taught through the years but in Kindergarten we used Number Sense so we could understand the meaning of more and less also there's estimation and PEMDAS. I've also learned how to round up so that the solution is at least around those numbers if the skill is to be applied.

hope that helps

Edna decided to purchase a $15,000 MSRP vehicle at a 5% interest rate for 3 years. The dealership offered her a $1500 cash-back

Ad libitum [116K]

P = A/D, Where P = Monthly payments, A = Total amount owed = 15,000-1,500 = $13,500,

$D= \frac{( 1+ \frac{r}{12} )^{nt} -1}{ \frac{r}{12} (1+ \frac{r}{12}) ^{nt} }$

r = 5% = 0.05, nt = 12*3 = 36

Therefore,
D = $\frac{(1+ 0.05/12)^{36}-1 }{(0.05/12)(1+0.05/12)^{36} }$ = 33.37

Then,

P = 13,500/44.37 = $404.61
The correct answer is c.
