Flagship Cinemas sells movie tickets that are $4 for matinees and $7 for regular shows. One night the theater sells 578 tickets and collects $3365 in total ticket sales. Whích system best represents the situation?

4x + 7y = 3365

x + y = 578

x = matinees

y = regular

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$4 = matinees

$7 = regular

Total tickets = 578

Money collected = $3365

If one calls the amount of matinees that when "x" and the amount of regulars that went "y", then one can form the system;

4x + 7y = 3365

x + y = 578

Solving the system;

Multiply the second equation by (-4)

4x + 7y = 3365

-4x - 4y = -2312

Add the equations

4x + 7y = 3365

-4x -4y = -2312

3y = 1053

Inverse operations

3y = 1053

y = 351

x = 227

step-by-step explanation:

you know what it isnt great cheating

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!
