Answer:
General admissions sold: 880
Reserved seating sold: 256
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up equation:
Variable x = people who bought general admission
Variable y = people who bought reserved seating
x + y = 1136
5x + 7y = 6192
Isolate a variable in any equation:
Y = 1136 - x
Substitute the value of the variable in the other equation:
5x + 7(1136 - x) = 6192
5x + 7952 - 7x = 6192
-2x + 7952 = 6192
-2x = -1760
x = 880
Substitute the value of x in any equation:
880 + y = 1136
y = 256
Check your work:
880 + 256 = 1136
1136 = 1136
Correct!
5(880) + 7(256) = 6192
4400 + 1792 = 6192
6192 = 6192
Correct!
X= 5 x= -9 y = -10 if this not the answer reverse it
Since the graph is a straight line, we know that this equation follows some sort of y = mx + b format.
Let's take the points that are on the axes (-4,0) and (0,-3)
use them to find the slope = (0 - (-3))/(-4 - 0) = 3/(-4) = -3/4
this is our m in the general equations above
we now have y = (-3/4)x + b
b is the y-intercept which is where x = 0 we already have that point in (0,-3)
plug the -3 in for b to give as a final answer:
y = (-3/4)x - 3
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
- <em><u>Pull out like factors:
</u></em>
-4x - 13 = -1 • (4x + 13)
- <em><u>Equation at the end of step 2:
</u></em>
-178 - (-5x + -4 • [4x + 13] ) = 0
- <em><u>Pull out like factors:
</u></em>
21x - 126 = 21 • (x - 6)
- <em><u>Equation at the end of step 4:
</u></em>
21 • (x - 6) = 0
x-6 = 0
- <em><u>Add 6 to both sides of the equation:</u></em>
x = 6
