Answer:
(a). <em>y = 3x - 11 ;</em> (b). <em>y = </em>
<em> x - 1 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slopes
Slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals.
(3, - 2)
The slope of given line is 3
<em>(a)</em>. Equation of ║ line is
y + 2 = 3(x - 3)
<em>y = 3x - 11</em>
<em>(b).</em> Slope of perpendicular line is
y + 2 =
(x - 3)
<em>y = </em>
<em> x - 1</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 3 unknowns: a, b, and c. It's our job to find them algebraically. I'm going to start with the point where x = 0 and y = 7. You'll see why in a minute. Filling in the standard form of a quadratic
using (0, 7):
gives you that c = 7. We will use that value now when we write the next 2 equations. Now the point (-2, 19):
and
so
12 = 4a - 2b
Now for the next point (-1, 12):
and
so
5 = a - b
Now we have a system of equations (the 2 bold font equations) that we will solve by elimination:
12 = 4a - 2b
5 = a - b
Multiply the bottom equation by -4 to get a new system:
12 = 4a - 2b
-20 = -4a + 4b
Add those together to get rid of the a terms and end up with
-8 = 2b so
b = -4
Now we can sub in -4 for b to solve for a. I'm using the second bold type equation to do this:
5 = a - (-4) and
5 = a + 4 so
a = 1 and the equation for the quadratic function is

Answer:
612 adults
361 students
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, set two equations:
Let x be number of adults and y be number of students.
As there are in total 937 people, the equation would be the sum of both adults and children:

...... ( 1 )
As the total sale amount is $1109, the equation would be to add up the ticket fee:
...... ( 2 )
Put ( 1 ) into ( 2 ):





Put y into ( 1 ):


Therefore there are 612 adults and 361 students.
You'd start off by adding the 2 adults together (10.75 + 10.75) which would equal 21.50 dollars. Now you take the three kids together (5.50 +5.50+5.50) which would equal 16.50 dollars.
Now you just take the 16.50+21.50 and add those together---- 38 dollars
