A community theater sells adult tickets for $\$15$ each and student tickets for $\$10$ each. The number of tickets sold for the evening performances on Friday and Saturday is represented by the matrix $A$ :

A = \begin{bmatrix} 80 & 45 \\ 110 & 60 \end{bmatrix}

where the rows represent Friday and Saturday, respectively, and the columns represent adult and student tickets, respectively.

The ticket prices are represented by the matrix $B$ :

B = \begin{bmatrix} 15 \\ 10 \end{bmatrix}

The product matrix $C = AB$ represents the total ticket revenue for each night. What is the element in the second row and first column of matrix $C$ , which represents the total ticket revenue, in dollars, for Saturday's performance?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2250

Cevap

The correct answer is

2250

dollars, which represents the ticket revenue for Saturday's performance.

The correct answer is

2250

dollars. The element in the second row and first column of the product matrix

C = AB

is obtained by multiplying the elements of the second row of matrix

A

(Saturday's ticket sales:

110

adult,

60

student) by the corresponding elements of the first column of matrix

B

(ticket prices:

\$15

adult,

\$10

student) and summing the products:

110 \times 15 + 60 \times 10 = 1650 + 600 = 2250

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the row of matrix

A

representing Saturday's sales and the column of matrix

B

representing the prices.

The second row of matrix

A

is

\begin{bmatrix} 110 & 60 \end{bmatrix}

(representing

110

adult tickets and

60

student tickets sold on Saturday). Matrix

B

is

\begin{bmatrix} 15 \\ 10 \end{bmatrix}

(representing the prices of

\$15

and

\$10

respectively).

Since the question asks for Saturday's performance (the second row of matrix

A

) and the revenue is calculated by multiplying sales by prices, we use these specific components for the matrix multiplication.

2

Calculate the dot product of Saturday's sales row and the price column.

110 \times 15 + 60 \times 10 = 1650 + 600 = 2250

.

This calculation determines the sum of the revenue from adult tickets (

110 \times 15 = 1650

) and student tickets (

60 \times 10 = 600

) to yield the total revenue.

A system of equations consists of a parabola with the equation $y = x^2$ and a line with the equation $y = 3x - 2$ . The line and the parabola intersect at two points, $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ . What is the product of the $y$ -coordinates, $y_1 \cdot y_2$ , of these two points?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The product of the y-coordinates of the intersection points is 4.

Solving the system of equations by setting

x^2 = 3x - 2

leads to the quadratic equation

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

, which factors as

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

. The x-coordinates of the intersection points are

x = 1

and

x = 2

. Substituting these into

y = x^2

gives the corresponding y-coordinates as

y = 1^2 = 1

and

y = 2^2 = 4

. The product of these y-coordinates is

1 \cdot 4 = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Equate the two equations to find the x-coordinates of the intersection points.

x^2 = 3x - 2

Since both equations are solved for y, setting them equal to each other allows us to find the x-coordinates where they intersect.

2

Move all terms to one side to set the quadratic equation to zero.

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

This puts the equation in the standard form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

, which can be solved by factoring.

3

Factor the quadratic equation.

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

, so

x_1 = 1

and

x_2 = 2

Factoring shows that the values of x that satisfy the equation are the roots of the quadratic.

4

Substitute the x-coordinates back into the equation of the parabola to find the y-coordinates.

For

x_1 = 1

,

y_1 = 1^2 = 1

. For

x_2 = 2

,

y_2 = 2^2 = 4

.

Substituting x into either of the original equations gives the corresponding y-coordinates of the intersection points.

5

Calculate the product of the y-coordinates.

1 \cdot 4 = 4

The question asks for the product of the y-coordinates, so we multiply

y_1

and

y_2

.

Matrices $A$ , $B$ , and $C$ are defined such that $A = \begin{bmatrix} x & 3 \\ -2 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$ , $B = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 \\ y & 5 \end{bmatrix}$ , and $C = \begin{bmatrix} 14 & 11 \\ 4 & 22 \end{bmatrix}$ . If $AB = C$ , what is the value of $x + y$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The value of

x + y

is 6.

The correct answer is 6 because performing the matrix multiplication

AB

yields the matrix

\begin{bmatrix} 2x + 3y & -x + 15 \\ -4 + 4y & 22 \end{bmatrix}

. Equating this to matrix

C

gives the equations

-x + 15 = 11

, which yields

x = 4

, and

-4 + 4y = 4

, which yields

y = 2

. The sum of these values is

4 + 2 = 6

. This is verified by checking the remaining equation

2(4) + 3(2) = 14

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply matrix

A

and matrix

B

to express the product

AB

algebraically.

AB = \begin{bmatrix} x(2) + 3(y) & x(-1) + 3(5) \\ -2(2) + 4(y) & -2(-1) + 4(5) \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 2x + 3y & -x + 15 \\ -4 + 4y & 22 \end{bmatrix}

To solve for the variables, we must first determine the resulting matrix from the multiplication of

A

and

B

.

2

Set up equations by equating the entries of

AB

with the corresponding entries of matrix

C

.

2x + 3y = 14

,

-x + 15 = 11

, and

-4 + 4y = 4

Two matrices are equal if and only if all of their corresponding elements are equal.

3

Solve the single-variable equation from the first row, second column for

x

.

-x + 15 = 11 \implies -x = -4 \implies x = 4

Isolating

x

gives its numeric value.

4

Solve the single-variable equation from the second row, first column for

y

.

-4 + 4y = 4 \implies 4y = 8 \implies y = 2

Isolating

y

gives its numeric value.

5

Verify consistency with the remaining equation and calculate the final sum

x + y

.

2(4) + 3(2) = 8 + 6 = 14

(consistent), and

x + y = 4 + 2 = 6

An agricultural cooperative packages a premium seed mixture containing rye grass, fescue, and bluegrass. The weight of the fescue in the mixture is $10$ pounds less than twice the weight of the rye grass. The weight of the bluegrass is $15$ pounds more than half the weight of the fescue. If the total weight of the mixture is $120$ pounds, how many pounds of bluegrass are in the mixture?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 40

Cevap

The weight of the bluegrass in the mixture is 40 pounds.

By translating the given relationships into equations (

f = 2r - 10

,

b = \frac{1}{2}f + 15

, and

r + f + b = 120

), we can express all variables in terms of

r

, yielding

r + (2r - 10) + (r + 10) = 120

. Solving this gives

r = 30

. Substituting this back gives the weight of bluegrass as

30 + 10 = 40

pounds.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define variables for each type of grass in the mixture.

Let

r

represent the weight of rye grass,

f

represent the weight of fescue, and

b

represent the weight of bluegrass.

Establishing variables is necessary to translate the verbal descriptions into algebraic terms.

2

Translate the given relationships into equations.

f = 2r - 10

and

b = \frac{1}{2}f + 15

The problem states the fescue is 10 pounds less than twice the rye grass, and the bluegrass is 15 pounds more than half the fescue.

3

Substitute the expression for f into the equation for b to express b solely in terms of r.

b = \frac{1}{2}(2r - 10) + 15 = r - 5 + 15 = r + 10

Reducing the number of variables simplifies the system of equations.

4

Set up the total weight equation and solve for r.

r + (2r - 10) + (r + 10) = 120 \implies 4r = 120 \implies r = 30

The sum of the three grass weights is given as 120 pounds.

5

Calculate the weight of the bluegrass using the value of r.

b = 30 + 10 = 40

The question asks specifically for the weight of the bluegrass.

What is the greatest number of whole batches the company can produce while satisfying this constraint?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The greatest number of whole batches the company can produce is 4.

Solving the inequality yields

x < \frac{234}{53} \approx 4.415

. The greatest integer value that satisfies this condition is 4.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply both sides of the inequality by the least common multiple of the denominators, which is 12.

20(6 - x) - 9(x + 2) > 24x - 132

Multiplying by 12 eliminates the fractions, making the inequality easier to solve.

2

Distribute the constants on the left side of the inequality.

120 - 20x - 9x - 18 > 24x - 132

Distributing 20 to

(6 - x)

yields

120 - 20x

, and distributing

-9

to

(x + 2)

yields

-9x - 18

.

3

Combine like terms on the left side of the inequality.

102 - 29x > 24x - 132

Combining

120 - 18

gives

102

, and combining

-20x - 9x

gives

-29x

.

4

Subtract

24x

from both sides to group the variable terms on the left side.

102 - 53x > -132

This groups all terms containing the variable

x

on one side of the inequality.

5

Subtract 102 from both sides to isolate the variable term.

-53x > -234

This isolates the term containing

x

on the left side of the inequality.

6

Divide both sides by

-53

and reverse the inequality sign.

x < \frac{234}{53}

Dividing by a negative number requires reversing the direction of the inequality sign.

7

Evaluate the fraction as a decimal and determine the greatest integer value of

x

that satisfies the inequality.

x < 4.415

, which means the greatest integer is 4.

Since the company must produce a whole number of batches, we find the largest integer less than 4.415.

, which is not greater than

2(5) - 11 = -1

(False). This confirms 4 is the largest integer satisfying the inequality.

Consider the function $f$ defined on the domain $[\frac{2}{3}, \infty)$ by the equation $f(x) = 2 + \sqrt{3x - 2}$ . If $f^{-1}$ represents the inverse of $f$ , what is the only real value of $x$ for which $f(x) = f^{-1}(x)$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The only real value of

x

for which

f(x) = f^{-1}(x)

is 6.

For a strictly increasing function, the intersection of

f(x)

and

f^{-1}(x)

must occur on the line

y = x

. Equating

f(x) = x

gives

2 + \sqrt{3x - 2} = x

. Isolating the radical term yields

\sqrt{3x - 2} = x - 2

. Squaring both sides produces

3x - 2 = x^2 - 4x + 4

, which simplifies to the quadratic equation

x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

. Factoring this equation gives

(x - 6)(x - 1) = 0

, yielding the solutions

x = 6

and

x = 1

. Substituting these back into the original equation shows that

x = 6

is a valid solution (

2 + \sqrt{16} = 6

), whereas

x = 1

is extraneous because it results in

2 + 1 = 3 \neq 1

. Furthermore, the domain of

f^{-1}

is the range of

f

, which is

[2, \infty)

, meaning

f^{-1}(1)

is undefined. Thus, the only real solution is 6.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Equate the function to

x

using properties of increasing functions and their inverses.

Since

f(x)

is strictly increasing on its domain

[\frac{2}{3}, \infty)

, the graph of

f(x)

and the graph of its inverse

f^{-1}(x)

can only intersect on the line of symmetry

y = x

. Therefore, the equation

f(x) = f^{-1}(x)

is equivalent to

f(x) = x

.

This simplifies the relation by eliminating the need to solve a high-degree polynomial equation derived from direct composition or substitution.

2

Set up the equation

f(x) = x

and isolate the radical term.

2 + \sqrt{3x - 2} = x \implies \sqrt{3x - 2} = x - 2

Isolating the square root term is a necessary prerequisite step before squaring both sides.

3

Square both sides and rewrite the equation as a standard quadratic equation.

3x - 2 = (x - 2)^2 \implies 3x - 2 = x^2 - 4x + 4 \implies x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

Squaring eliminates the radical to yield a standard quadratic equation that can be solved analytically.

4

Solve the quadratic equation by factoring.

(x - 6)(x - 1) = 0 \implies x = 6 \text{ or } x = 1

Factoring the quadratic trinomial yields the two candidate values for

x

.

5

Check the candidate solutions in the original equation to eliminate extraneous roots.

For

x = 1

:

2 + \sqrt{3(1)-2} = 3 \neq 1

(extraneous). For

x = 6

:

2 + \sqrt{3(6)-2} = 2 + 4 = 6

(valid). Also, the domain of

f^{-1}

is the range of

f

, which is

[2, \infty)

, thus excluding

x = 1

.

Squaring both sides can introduce extraneous roots. We must verify that the solutions satisfy the original radical equation and fall within the domains of both

f

and

f^{-1}

.

2 + \sqrt{3x - 2} = \frac{(x - 2)^2 + 2}{3}

. Multiplying by 3 and isolating the radical term gives

3\sqrt{3x - 2} = x^2 - 4x

. Squaring both sides results in a fourth-degree polynomial equation:

9(3x - 2) = (x^2 - 4x)^2 \implies x^4 - 8x^3 + 16x^2 - 27x + 18 = 0

, the root

x = 1

is rejected, and the quadratic factor

has no real roots, leaving

The polynomial $P(x)$ is defined by $P(x) = (2x^2 - 3x + 5)^2 - 4x(x^3 - 2x^2 - 7x + 1)$ . When $P(x)$ is written in standard form, what is the coefficient of the $x^2$ term?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 57

Cevap

The coefficient of the

x^2

term is 57.

Expanding

(2x^2 - 3x + 5)^2

yields

(2x^2 - 3x + 5)(2x^2 - 3x + 5) = 4x^4 - 12x^3 + 29x^2 - 30x + 25

. Distributing the

-4x

term yields

-4x(x^3 - 2x^2 - 7x + 1) = -4x^4 + 8x^3 + 28x^2 - 4x

. Combining the

x^2

terms from both expressions gives

29x^2 + 28x^2 = 57x^2

. Thus, the coefficient of the

x^2

term is 57.

What is the value of the larger real solution to the equation $\frac{10}{x} - \frac{3}{x-1} = 2$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2.5

Cevap

The larger real solution is

2.5

.

Multiplying the equation by the least common denominator

x(x-1)

yields

10(x-1) - 3x = 2x(x-1)

. Simplifying this leads to

2x^2 - 9x + 10 = 0

. Factoring the quadratic yields

(2x-5)(x-2) = 0

, which gives the solutions

x = 2.5

and

x = 2

. The larger of these two solutions is

2.5

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply the entire equation by the least common denominator, which is

x(x-1)

, for

x \neq 0

and

x \neq 1

.

10(x-1) - 3x = 2x(x-1)

This clears the fractions from the rational equation.

2

Expand both sides of the equation.

10x - 10 - 3x = 2x^2 - 2x

Expanding the terms allows us to combine like terms.

3

Combine like terms on the left side and move all terms to one side to set the quadratic equation equal to zero.

2x^2 - 9x + 10 = 0

Setting the quadratic equation to zero is required to solve it by factoring.

4

Factor the quadratic equation by grouping.

(2x-5)(x-2) = 0

Factoring allows us to find the roots of the quadratic equation.

5

Solve for

x

by setting each factor equal to zero.

x = 2.5

or

x = 2

By the zero product property, at least one of the factors must be zero.

6

Check for extraneous solutions and select the larger real value.

Both

The value of the exponent

k

is 3.

Applying the exponent rules simplifies the left side of the equation to

x^{3k-3}y^{12-2k}

. Equating the exponent of

x

Let the function $h$ be defined by $h(x) = 3x - 5$ , and let the function $g$ be defined by $g(x) = x^2 + c$ for some constant $c$ . If $h(g(2)) = 10$ , what is the value of $c$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1

Cevap

The value of the constant

c

is

1

.

The correct answer is

1

. Evaluating the inner function

g(2)

gives

2^2 + c = 4 + c

. Applying the outer function

h(x)

to this expression gives

h(4 + c) = 3(4 + c) - 5

. Simplifying this expression results in

12 + 3c - 5 = 7 + 3c

. We are given that this value equals

10

, so

7 + 3c = 10

. Subtracting 7 from both sides gives

3c = 3

, which yields

c = 1

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate

g(2)

in terms of

c

g(2) = 4 + c

We substitute

x = 2

into the definition

g(x) = x^2 + c

to get

2^2 + c = 4 + c

.

2

Substitute

g(2)

into the definition of

h(x)

to express

h(g(2))

h(g(2)) = 3(4 + c) - 5

Since the composition is

h(g(2))

, we evaluate the function

h

at the input value

g(2) = 4 + c

.

3

Set

h(g(2)) = 10

and solve the linear equation for

c

c = 1

Expanding and simplifying the equation

3(4 + c) - 5 = 10

gives

12 + 3c - 5 = 10

, which reduces to

7 + 3c = 10

. Subtracting 7 gives

3c = 3
