try tickets during the off-peak season. The Sandlers paid a total of $78 for 1 adult ticket and 2 child's tickets to the water park during the off-peak season. The following equation represents this situation, where x represents the regular price of an adult ticket: 78 = 1/2x + (x − 6) What is the regular price of a child's ticket? $50 $56 $75 $81

Distribute +1
78=1/2x+x-6
combine like terms
1=(2/2)
(1/2)+(2/2)= 3/2
78=3/2x-6
Add 6 to both sides
84=3/2x
Divide by (3/2)
x=$56=adult ticket
Child ticket = x-6=56-6=$50
$50

Write an equation for the line in point slope form that passes thru (1,-4) and (3,2)
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

  y+4 = 3(x -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given two points, so you only need to find the slope. The slope is given by the formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (2 -(-4))/(3 -1) = 6/2 = 3

The point-slope equation for a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Using the first point, the equation is ...

  y+4 = 3(x -1)
