Answer:
Ed and Sheerie save 7.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using a rule of three.
Ed and Sherrie save $90 each pay period from their combined paychecks, which total $1200. What percent do Ed and Sherrie save?
How much of $1200 is $90? $1200 is 100% = 1, $90 = x. So
$1200 - 1
$90 - x
Ed and Sheerie save 7.5%.
A: 45x + 30y = 1350
Since we don’t know how many adults and children are in the group, we use x and y
b: x-intercept= 30 y-intercept=45
To find the x-intercept you need to isolate the variable. 45x/45 = x
Then you do the same thing to the other side. 1350/45 = 30
So x=30
Same thing with the y-intercept.
30y/30 = y 1350/30 = 45
y=45 (Not really sure what it means by “what they represent” but I thinks it’s that there are 30 adult tickets and 45 children tickets )
c: so our points are (30,0) and (0,45) so you would graph that.
To find how many children tickets were bought if there were 20 adult tickets just look at the photo I put. I don’t know how to explain this.
Hope this helps
