Answer:

Students ticket = 125

Adults ticket = 425

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Student ticket = S

Adult ticket = A

A + S = 550 ..... (1)

The price for a student ticket was $12.50, and the price for an adult ticket was $16.00. The register confirms that $8,362.50 was taken in that is

16A + 12.5S = 8362.5 ...... (2)

Solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously

A + S = 550

16A + 12.5S = 8362.5

Multiply S in equation 1 by 12.5

12.5A + 12.5S = 6875

16A + 12.5S = 8362.5

3.5A = 1487.5

A = 1487.5/3.5

A = 425 tickets

Substitute A in equation (1)

425 + S = 550

S = 550 - 425

S = 125 ticket

8_murik_8 [283]

(new - original)/original = mark up

(78.08-64)/64= mark up

14.08/64 =mark up

.22 = mark up

multiply by 100 to get to a percent

mark up = 22 percent

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (2, 3)?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

(-4,0)(4,-4)

slope(m) = (-4 - 0) / (4 - (-4) = -4/(4 + 4) = -4/8 = -1/2. A parallel line will have the same slope.

y = mx + b

slope(m) = -1/2

(2,3)...x = 2 and y = 3

now we sub and find b, the y int

3 = -1/2(2) + b

3 = -1 + b

3 + 1 = b

4 = b

y = -1/2x + 4

1/2x + y = 4....multiply by 2

x + 2y = 8 <== ur parallel line
