1. the county fair charges $1.50 per ticket for the rides. jermaine bought 20 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $48.75 at the fair. jermaine spent his money only on ride tickets and fair admission. the price of the fair admission is the same for everyone. use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. see pages 103 – 104 in your reference guide.(a) define your variables. (b) write a linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission.

We will use the amount Jermaine used to determine the admission price, since that is not given to us. The total amount he paid is equal to the sum of the price of the tickets and the admission price, a. We get the equation 48.75 = 1.50 * 20 + a (a = $18.75). Now, if a person comes to the fair and pays for only the rides and admission, we can form an equation in x, the number of ride tickets, and y, the total cost incurred by that person. y = 1.50x + 18.75. Here, y is the total cost, 1.50 is the price per ticket, x is the number of tickets and 18.75 is the admission cost.

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|

11.2

step-by-step explanation:

when doing tangent the tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side from the angle over the adjacent side to the angle.

tan43 = x / 12

move 12 over by multiplying each side by 12

12tan43 = x

x = about 11.2
