Let x be the unknown amount of child tickets 
Let 450 - x be the unknown amount of adult tickets (This is because the total amount subtracted from the child tickets can only be the adult tickets since there are no other tickets)

2x+5(450-x)=1800

(2x because each child ticket cost $2 and same for the adult tickets. Each adult ticket cost $5. So, the sum must be 1800.)

Simplify the equation.


2x+5(450-x)=1800   *Distribute*

2x+2250-5x=1800   *Combine like terms. (2-5=-3)*

-3x + 2250 = 1800    *Move constants and variables to opposite sides*
       -2250      -2250
---------------------------
-3x=-450                     *Divide by 3 to isolate the variable*
----  ------
-3     -3

x=150

So, there are 150 child tickets. To find adult tickets, just subtract children tickets from the amount of tickets bought (450-150) to get 300 adult tickets sold.

write an equation of a line that passed through the point (2,0) and is a perpendicular to the line y=-1.5+3
kotegsom [21]

You will be using the equation y = mx + b

The only variables you need to find are "m" and "b"

For the equation of a line to be perpendicular to the given line, the slope will have to be the opposite of the given slope. Or you have to flip the sign and the number of the given slope to get your new slope.

For example:

m = -2

perpendicular slope = 1/2(positive)

m = 3/4

perpendicular slope = -4/3(negative)


The slope of the line is -1.5 or -3/2

Your new slope is 2/3

y = 2/3x + b

To find "b", you plug in the point (2,0) into the equation.

0 = 2/3(2) + b

0 = 4/3 + b

-4/3 = b


Your new equation is y = 2/3x - 4/3
