The total number of adult tickets sold is 250.

<h3>What is the total number of adults tickets sold?
</h3>
  • Let the initial number of adult's ticket sold be represented with x
  • Let the initial number of children's ticket sold be represented with y

x / y  = 2/5

Cross multiply :5x = 2y

y = 5/2

y = 2.5x

(x + 70) / (y + 300) = 1/3

Cross multiply :210 + 3x = 300 + y

Substitute for y

210 + 3x = 300 + 2.5x

300 - 210 = 3x - 2.5x

90 = 0.5x

x = 90 / 0.5

x = 180

Total tickets sold = 180 + 70 = 250

dusya [7]

Answer:

11.)

We can let the scores we don't know by x, and we know that tokay had 14 more points than Lodi. This can be shown as the following:

x + (x+14) = 162

2x+14=162

162-14= 148

148/2 = 74

Therefore Lodi scored 74 points.

12.)

We can substitute the prices we don't know by x and have the following:

4x+x=6.50

5x=6.50

6.50/5= 1.3

4x1.3= 5.2

Therefore the sandwich cost $5.20 and the drink costs $1.30

Write an equation of the line passing through the given points.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The equation of the line passing through the given points.

(1,-5) and (-4,5) is

y=-2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

Let,  

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 1 ,-5)

point B( x₂ , y₂ )≡  (-4 , 5)

To Find:  

Equation of Line AB =?  

Solution:  

Equation of a line passing through a points A( x₁ , y₁) and point B( x₂ , y₂ ) is given by the formula Two -Point Form,  

(y-y_{1})=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }\times (x-x_{1})

Now on substituting the slope and point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 1 ,-5) and B( x₂ , y₂ )≡  (-4 , 5) we get

y-(-5)=\frac{5--5}{-4-1}\times (x-1)\\ \\y+5=\frac{10}{-5}(x-1)\\ \\y+5=-2(x-1)\\y+5=-2x+2 ......Applying\ Distributive\ property\\\\y=-2x+2-5\\\\y=-2x-3....Which\ is\ required

The equation of the line passing through the given points.

(1,-5) and (-4,5) is

y=-2x-3
