Answer:

Alejandro went to 8 matinee shows and 4 evening shows.

Our system of equations:

x + y = 12

7x + 12y = 104

Correct statement and question:

Alejandro loves to go to the movies. He goes both at night and during the day. The cost of a matinee is 7 dollars. The cost of an evening show is 12 dollars.

Alejandro went to see a total of 12 movies and spent $ 104. How many of each type of movie did he attend? Write a system of equations.

Previous question that can be found at brainly

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let x to represent the number of matinee shows Alejandro went to.

Let y to represent the number of evening shows Alejandro went to.

Now, let's write our system of equations:

x + y = 12

7x + 12y = 104

*********************

x = 12 - y

*********************

7 (12 - y) + 12y = 104

84 - 7y + 12y = 104

5y = 104 - 84

5y = 20

y = 20/5

y = 4 ⇒ x = 12 - 4 = 8

Alejandro went to 8 matinee shows and 4 evening shows.

Which of the following is not a way of generating random numbers? A. random number tables B. using phone numbers selected at ran

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

well all of these look like a way so we have to use elimination method

A : random number tables : well it has random numbers so X out

B: PHONE NUMBERS: well phone numbers are random so X out

C: USing the internet : totally X out

D: books of random numbers: X out

so none of the above i guess

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to Y-3x+1 that passes through the point (12,-6)?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

$3y + x = -6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 3x + 1

Required

Equation of line that passes through (12,-6) and is perpendicular to y = 3x + 1

First, the slope of the line has to be calculated;

Th slope of a line is the coefficient of x in its linear equation;

This implies that the slope of y = 3x + 1 is 3

Having calculated the slope of the first line;

The relationship between both lines are perpendicularity; this implies that $m_1 * m_2 = -1$

Where m_1 = 3 and m_2 is the slope of the secodnd line

$m_1 * m_2 = -1$ becomes

$3 * m_2 = -1$

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{3 *m_2}{m_2} = \frac{-1}{3}$

$m_2 = \frac{-1}{3}$

The equation of the line can be calculated using the folloing formula

$m = \frac{y - y_1}{x - x_1}$

Where $(x_1, y_1) = (12,-6)$ and $m_2 = \frac{-1}{3}$

The equation becomes

$\frac{-1}{3} = \frac{y -- 6}{x - 12}$

$\frac{-1}{3} = \frac{y + 6}{x - 12}$

Cross multiply

$-(x - 12)= 3(y + 6)$

$-x + 12=3y + 18$

Collect like terms

$12 - 18 = 3y +x$

$-6 = 3y + x$

$3y + x = -6$
