The conjecture is the formula, and we start with 3. However, as x increases, y decreases by 1, so we can do 3-x (as -1*x puts -x in)

At the city museum, child admission is $5.20 and adult admission is $9.50. On Friday,133 tickets were sold for a total sales of

fredd [130]

Answer:

55 adult tickets were sold on Friday.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear system will be used to model the system.

Let c be the number of child tickets and a be the number of adult tickets

Then according to given statements

$a+c = 133\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\9.50a+5.20c = 928.10\ \ \ Eqn\ 2$

From equation 1

$a = 133-c$

Putting this in equation 2

$9.50(133-c)+5.20c = 928.10\\1263.5-9.50c+5.20c=928.10\\1263.5-4.3c = 928.10\\-4.3c = 928.10-1263.5\\-4.3c=-335.4\\\frac{-4.3c}{-4.3} = \frac{-335.4}{-4.3}\\c = 78$

Putting c = 78 in equation 1

$a+78 = 133\\a = 133-78\\a = 55$

Hence,

55 adult tickets were sold on Friday.

Find the value of s if 57+s=68

olga2289 [7]

Answer

s = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the value of S:

57 + s = 68

Substract 57 from both sides of the equation

s = 68 - 57

s = 11

The time it takes to drive to Joliet is 6 hours more than half the time it takes to drive to Davenport. It takes 8 hours to driv

Molodets [167]

It takes 8 hours to drive to Joliet, and that's 6 hours more than half the time it takes to drive to Davenport. So, I did 8-6 which equals 2. So 2 hours is half the time it takes to get to Davenport, which means it takes 4 hours to get to Davenport.

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint. (Hint: Let (x,y) be the unkno

spin [16.1K]

The other endpoint is (1, -17).

The midpoint formula is:

$m=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

Using our midpoint and endpoint, we have:
$(6, -11) = (\frac{11+x_2}{2}, \frac{-5+y_2}{2})
\\
\\6=\frac{11+x_2}{2} \text{ and } -11=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}
$

For the first equation (to find the x-coordinate) we will multiply both sides by 2:
$6\times2=\frac{11+x_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\12=11+x_2$

Subtract 11 from both sides:
12 - 11 = 11+x₂ - 11
1 = x₂

For the second equation (the y-coordinate) we multiply both sides by 2:
$-11\times2=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\-22=-5+y_2$

Add 5 to both sides:
-22+5 = -5+y₂ + 5
-17 = y₂

This means that (x₂, y₂) is at (1, -17).
