The function C(x)=17.5x-10 represents the cost (in dollars) of buying x tickets to the orchestra with a $10 coupon. How much does it cost to buy five tickets?

8 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 10 in the given equation.

We have then:

C (x) = 17.5x - 10

C (10) = 17.5 * (10) - 10

C (10) = 165

to buy 10 tickets cost:

$ 165

b. How many tickets can you buy with $ 130?  

For this case we must make the substitution: C (x) = 130

We have then:

C (x) = 17.5x - 10

130 = 17.5x - 10

Clearing x we have:

17.5x = 130 + 10

17.5x = 140

x = (140) / (17.5)

x = 8

You can buy 8 tickets with $ 130

step-by-step explanation: 15 units

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
