Answer:
D. p>-3
Step-by-step explanation:
step1
move 12 to the other side
p>9-12
when you move it changes it's sign from positive to negative
p>-3
Answer:
113
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of adult tickets sold =a
Let the number of student tickets sold =s
A total of 259 tickets were sold, therefore:
a+s=259
Adult tickets were sold for $24 each and student tickets were sold for $16 each.
Total Revenue = $5,312
Therefore:
24a+16s=5,312
We solve the two derived equations simultaneously.
From the first equation
a=259-s
Substitute a=259-s into 24a+16s=5,312
24(259-s)+16s=5,312
6216-24s+16s=5,312
-8s=5,312-6216
-8s=-904
Divide both sides by -8
s=113
Therefore, 113 student tickets were sold.
Answer:
y = 3 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The goal is to isolate the y variable
In order to have y by itself (on one side of the equation or equal sign), we must move the other numbers and variables to the other side.
Since 2x is on the same side as y, we have to subtract it from both sides. Subtracting it cancels out the original 2x and leaves the equation to look like this:
y = 3 - 2x
Now the y is isolated
Another example:
-5x + y = 15
To isolate the y, we must cancel out the -5x. Add 5x to both sides. It will cancel out the -5x and bring it to the right side of the equation, resulting in:
y = 15 + 5x
Please mark me brainless :)
The y intercept is 2, because that is the value of y when it crosses the y axis.
Since the line is pointing down, it has a negative slope, and since the y value goes down 2 for every 3 x values, the slope is -2/3. You should always right the slope in rise/run form, or change in y/change in x.
Finally, write the equation in the form of y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. This means the equation of the line is y=-2/3x+2.
