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.

Solve the system of equations by graphing on your own paper. What is the x-coordinate of the solution?
Dovator [93]
Y = x + 7 
<span>y = -2x - 11

x + 7 = -2x - 11
3x + 7 = -11
3x = -18
x = -6

The x-coordinate of the solution is -6.

I have attached a graph of the two equations since the question really wanted you to graph it and then find the answer.</span>

4x + 2y = 2<br> 2x + y = 4<br><br> Step by step explanation please
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2y = 2

2x + y = 4

we need to evaluate for y is "2x + y = 4" to be able to solve this.

2x + y = 4

2x - 2x + y = 4 - 2x

y = -2x + 4

4x + 2y = 2

4x + 2(-2x + 4) = 2

4x -4x + 8 = 2

8 = 2

NO solutions

Is triangle VUW similar to triangle VXY? If yes, explain how you know. If no, explain why not.​
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Yes, because m<UVW is congruent with m<XVY and m<VUW is congruent with m<VXY

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are equal

In this problem

m<VXY=m<VUW ------> by corresponding angles

m<XVY=m<UVW -----> is the same angle

therefore

m<XYV=m<UWV -------> because the sum of the interior angles in a triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

therefore

Triangles VUW and VXY are similar by AA Similarity Postulate------> The three internal angles are congruent
