Set up 2 equations.(x = number of people in first class, y = tourist class)

30x + 25y = 1360
x + y = 52

You have 2 equations and 2 unknown. You can solve them.
I like to use the substitution method 

Because    y = 52 - x
Then          30x + 25(52 - x) = 1360, solve for x.

30x + 1300 - 25x = 1360
5x = 60
x = 12

Use the x to solve y
30(12) + 25y = 1360
360 + 25y = 1360
25y = 1000
y = 40

HELP PLEASE ITS DUE IN 10 MIN Use algebraic strategies to solve for x.

Answer:

x = 4, x ≠ -1

Step-by-step explanation:

√3x + 4 = x

(√3x + 4)² = x² (Square both sides to get rid of the radical.)

3x + 4 = x²

0 = x² - 3x - 4 (Set everything to 0 by moving everything to one side.)

0 = (x - 4)(x + 1) (Factor.)

x = 4   x = -1

Now we need to check for extraneous solutions:

√3(4) + 4 = 4

√12 + 4 = 4

√16 = 4

4 = 4

√3(-1) + 4 = -1

√-3 +4 = -1

√1 = -1

1 ≠ -1

-1 is an extraneous solution.

Write the equation of a line, in SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM, that is perpendicular to the given equation and passes through the given
adoni [48]

Step-by-step explanation:

slope interception formula is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

where m is m=y-y1/x-x1 in this case m=-2 because the line we are trying to find is parallel to the given one y=-2x-6 where slope k=-2

so the final equation would be

y-1=-2(x-(-4))

y-1=-2x-2*4

y=-2x-8+1=-2x-7
