Answer:
the solution is (-4, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
if you were to graph y = -7/4x - 4 you could plot your first point at (0, -4) and get your second point by going up 7 units (from (0, -4) and to the left by 4
if you were to graph y = -1/4x + 2 you could plot your first point at (0, 2) and get your second point by going up 1 unit (from (0, 2) and to the left by 4
the second point plotted for each equation will be the point of intersection, (-4, 3)
Total tickets sold = 800
Total revenue = $3775
Ticket costs:
$3 per child,
$8 per adult,
$5 per senior citizen.
Of those who bought tickets, let
x = number of children
y = number of adults
z = senior citizens
Therefore
x + y + z = 800 (1)
3x + 8y + 5z = 3775 (2)
Twice as many children's tickets were sold as adults. Therefore
x = 2y (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
2y + y + z = 800, or
3y + z = 800, or
z = 800 - 3y (4)
3(2y) + 8y + 5z = 3775, or
14y + 5z = 3775 (5)
Substtute (4) nto (5).
14y + 5(800 - 3y) = 3775
-y = -225
y = 225
From (4), obtain
z = 800 - 3y = 125
From (3), obtain
x = 2y = 450
Answer:
The number of tickets sold was:
450 children,
225 adults,
125 senior citizens.
6x + 9y =36 is the Answer
C- in the table every ratio y/x is equal so the relationship is proportional
