A system of equations is good for a problem like this.
Let x be the number of student tickets sold
Let y be the number of adult tickets sold
x + y = 200
2x + 3y = 490
x = 200 - y
2(200 - y) + 3y = 490
400 - 2y + 3y = 490
400 + y = 490
y = 90
The number of adult tickets sold was 90.
x + 90 = 200 --> x = 110
2x + 3(90) = 490 --> 2x + 270 = 490 --> 2x = 220 --> x = 110
The number student tickets sold was 110.

PLEASE HELP ASAP! ALGEBRA!<br><br> (0,5), m=1/3 in point slope form
n200080 [17]

Answer:

y - 5 = 1/3(x - 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for point-slope form is y2 - y1 = m(x2 - x1), where m is the slope, y1 is the y coordinate and x1 is the x coordinate

so just plug in the values into the equation:

y - 5 = 1/3(x - 0)

if you want it in slope-intercept form, the formula is: y = mx+b, where mx is the slope and b is the y intercept. it would look like the following:

y = 1/3x + 5

A. If 3x + 10º and 4x - 5° are the angle of a linear pair find their measurement.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

85° and 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear pair of angles sum to 180° , then

3x + 10 + 4x - 5 = 180

7x + 5 = 180 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

7x = 175 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 25

Then

3x + 10 = 3(25) + 10 = 75 + 10 = 85°

4x - 5 = 4(25) - 5 = 100 - 5 = 95°
