At a carnival, food tickets cost $2 each and ride tickets cost $3 each. A total of $1,240 was collected at the carnival. The num

ber of food tickets sold was 10 less than twice the number of ride tickets sold.
The system of equations represents x, the number of food tickets sold, and y, the number of ride tickets sold.

2x + 3y = 1240

x = 2y – 10

How many of each type of ticket were sold?

in the equation as we can say x= 2y-10.

so, substitute x=2y-10 everywhere then the x in 1240 gets cancelled with 2y-10 then solve the remaining you will get 4y-20+3y=1240

7y=1260

y=1260/7

y=180

then substitute the value of y everywhere

2x+3y=1240

2x+3(180)=1240

2x=1240-540

2x=700

x=350

DONE.

Arrange the graphs in descending order (from highest to lowest) based on the values of their correlation coefficients.
Scrat [10]
Basically, the closer they fit to the imaginary line of best fit, the higher they are

the closer the dots are to the imaginary line, te higher the number

D looks the closest together so that is first
A is a little farther apart
C is farther
B is farthers


DACB is order

find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-8,-5) and (-4,1)
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

y = -x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint of the line:

x = (x1 + x2)/2 = (-8 + -4)/2 = -12/2 = -6

y = (y1 + y2)/2 = (-5 + 1)/2 = -4/2 = -2

so midpoint is (-6,-2)

Slope of the line: Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-1 - -5)/(-4 - -8) = (-1 + 5)/(-4 + 8) = 4/4 = 1

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another

so slope of the perpendicular line is -1/1 is -1

y = mx + b

y = -x + b

Using (-6,-2)

-2 = -(-6) + b

-2 = 6 + b

b = -8

so y = -x - 8

How can you write 52+(8+25) to make it easier to add?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

You can't really make it easier to add, but since the (8+25) is in parentheses you should add that first

52 + 33

Then add straight away

52 + (8+25) = 85
