Answer:

k = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Substitute the point (2,-1) into the given equation 5x+ky=12. The first number is 2, the x-value. The second number is -1, the y-value.

5x + ky = 12

5(2) + k(-1) = 12

2. Simplify

5(2) + k(-1) = 12

10 + (-k) = 12

10 - k = 12

2. Isolate k

10 - k = 12

-k = 12-10

-k = 2   <= here multiply both sides by (-1)

k = -2

bazaltina [42]

Answer: $3,400

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 400 seats in the auditorium which means that there are 400 tickets to be sold.

85% of these tickets are sold. The number of tickets sold is:

= 85% * 400

= 340 tickets were sold.

Each ticket sells for a total of $10.

The amount of money made from ticket sales is therefore:

= No. of tickets sold * price of ticket

= 340 * 10

= $3,400
