Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

x + y = 2

x - y = 6

Solution

Just add the two equations together. The y's will drop out.

x + y = 2

<u>x - y = 6 </u>             Add

2x = 8                 Divide by 2

2x/2 = 8/2          Combine

x = 4                   Substitute x = 4 into the top equation

x + y = 2

4 + y = 2             Subtract 4 from both sides

4-4+y=2-4          Combine

y = - 2    

Answer

x = 4

y = -2

A ticket to a movie theatre for a student is $7. The cost for an adult is $2 more than for a student. How much would it cost 13
MakcuM [25]

Answer: it would cost a total of $194

Step-by-step explanation:

A ticket to a movie theatre for a student is $7. The cost for an adult is $2 more than for a student.

If student ticket costs $x, adult ticket would cost x + 2

This means that the cost for an adult is

7 + 2 = $9

The cost of 13 adult tickets to the movie theatre would be

13 × 9 = $117.

The cost of 11 student tickets to the movie theatre would be

11 × 7 = $77

Total cost of 13 adult tickets and 11 student tickets would be

117 + 77 = $194

What is the change from -9 to -1?.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Positive 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they're both negative numbers and it went from -9 to -1, you had to have added a positive number to get a lesser negative number. To put it simply, if you were to subtract 8 from 9, you'd get 1.
