Number of child tickets: x
Number of adult tickets: y

1) x+y=370
2) 3x+7y=1750

Using the method of substitution
a) Isolating y in the first equation:
1) x+y=370→x+y-x=370-x→y=370-x

b) Replacing y=370-x in the second equation:
2) 3x+7y=1750→3x+7(370-x)=1750

c) Solving for x: Distributive property:
3x+7(370)-7x=1750
3x+2590-7x=1750

Adding similar terms:
-4x+2590=1750

-4x+2590-2590=1750-2590
-4x=-840

Dividing both sides of the equation by -4:
-4x/(-4)=-840/(-4)
x=210

Replacing x=210 in the first equation:
1) y=370-x→y=370-210→y=160

Answer:
The number of child tickets was 210 and
the number of adult tickets was 160

I NEED HELP WITH THIS! ANYONE???
Aneli [31]

Answer:

y-axis, x-axis, y-axis, x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so this problem looks a lot harder than it really is. When you flip a point across the x axis, y becomes negative, and when it is flipped across the y axis, x becomes negative. This means that if the x value changes signs it was flipped on the y axis, and vice versa.
