Answer:
Adult tickets sold: 156
Step-by-step explanation:
Adult ticket: x
Student ticket: y
x + y = 260 ===> -6(x + y = 260) ===> -6x -6y = -1560
6x + 4.5y = 1404 ===> 6x + 4.5y = 1404
________________
add the two equations to eliminate a variable: -1.5y = -156
divide by -1.5: y = 104
substitution to find x:
x + y = 260
x + 104 = 260
x = 156
The first option is the one!
Answer: g(x) = 3/2 x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
h(x) = -2/3 x - 1
perpendicular lines always have the opposite sign, reciprocal slope
so, the slope of the perpendicular line would be: m = 3/2
y = mx + b
y = 3/2 x + b
plug in (-4, 3) to find b
3 = 3/2 (-4) + b
3 = -6 + b
b = 9
y = 3/2 x + 9
g(x) = 3/2 x + 9
