Answer:

y = \frac{1}{3}x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Solve for y in the first equation</u>

3y - x = -12

3y - x + x = -12 + x

\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{x}{3} - \frac{12}{3}

y = \frac{1}{3}x - 4

<u>Step 2:  Determine the important aspects</u>

We know that our line is parallel to the other line that has a slope of 1/3 which means that our slope is also going to be 1/3.  We also know that our line crosses the point (18, 2) which means that we can use the point slope form to determine our equation

Point Slope Form → (y-y_1) = m(x - x_1)

<u>Step 3:  Plug in the information and solve</u>

(y-2) = \frac{1}{3}(x - 18)

y - 2 = \frac{1}{3}x - 6

y - 2 + 2 = \frac{1}{3}x - 6 + 2

y = \frac{1}{3}x-4

Answer: y = \frac{1}{3}x-4

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

x represents the number of level 1 tickets; y represents the number of level 2 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation (x + y = 1,000 ) shows that x + y equal to the number of seats in the auditorium. That means that they represent the number of tickets. In the second equation (75x + 100y = 25,000) x and y are being multiplied by the cost of their level ticket. So x represents the number of level 1 tickets; y represents the number of level 2 tickets.
