So if ondi believes the you must get a blank answer when multiplying numbers

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130

welcome!

answer: a) (0,0), (1,1), (2,8), and (3,27).

step-by-step explanation:

0^3=0

1^3=1

2^3=8

3^3=27

in effect, the exponential equation for this would me y=3^x. each x-coordinate cubed is giving the y coordinate, so a is your answer : )

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
