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.

If y varies directly as x, and y is 12 when x is 1.2, what is the constant of variation for this relation?
laila [671]
If you multiply 12 by 0.1, you get 1.2.   To write this as a function you would say y is x multiplied by 0.1.
y=0.1x

Find the area of the composite figure.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Option C, 488 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Determine the area of the rectangle</u>

A = l * w

A = 22\ cm * 17\ cm

A = 374\ cm^2

<u>Step 2:  Determine the area of the triangle</u>

A=\frac{h*b}{2}

A=\frac{19\ cm * (22\ cm-10\ cm)}{2}

A=\frac{19\ cm * (12\ cm)}{2}

A=\frac{228\ cm^2}{2}

A=114\ cm^2

<u>Step 3:  Determine the total area</u>

A_{total} = 374\ cm^2 + 114\ cm^2

A_{total} =488\ cm^2

Answer:  Option C, 488 square centimeters
