At the arena, front section tickets are $12.50 more expensive than back section tickets. If 600 front section and 450 back section tickets to a worship music concert were sold for a total revenue of $31,125, how much does each type of ticket cost?

Back Section Tickets: $22.50

Front Section Tickets: $35

Step-by-step explanation:

600(12.50+x) + 450(x) = 31125

7500+600x + 450x = 31125

1050x = 23625

x = 22.50 = back section tickets

x+12.50 = 35 = front section tickets

linearly: 8560 bacteria

exponentially: approximately 75233 bacteria

step-by-step explanation:

assuming it is not exponential (we would have some really complicated logarithms), let's say it is linear. then, after 5 hours, it increased by 1200 bacteria, so every hour it increases by 240 bacteria. this means that after 19 hours, we get 19 * 240 + 4000 bacteria or 3800 + 760 + 4000 = 7800 + 760 = 8560 bacteria.

because it says round your answer, i will do this exponentially (with a calculator, of course). first, we need to find how much it multiplies by every hour, by taking the 5th root of 52/40 or 13/10. this is approximately 0.167. we still need to add 1 to this, because we are multiplying by that number, not adding that amount of the number. now, we just calculate 4000 * (1.167)^19. use a calculator to get approximately 75232.6, or 75233.
