Answer: the cost of an adult ticket is $21.5
the cost of a child ticket is $15.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of an adult ticket.
Let y represent the cost of a child ticket.
At an amusement park, the cost of 3 adult tickets and 4 children's tickets is $126.50. It means that
3x + 4y = 126.5- - - - - - - - - - - -1
Another customer paid $120.50 for 2 adult tickets and 5 children's tickets. It means that
2x + 5y = 120.5- - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes
6x + 8y = 253
6x + 15y = 361.5
Subtracting, it becomes
- 7y = - 108.5
y = - 108.5/ - 7
y = 15.5
Substituting y = 15.5 into equation 1, it becomes
3x + 4 × 15.5 = 126.5
3x + 62 = 126.5
3x = 126.5 - 62
3x = 64.5
x = 64.5/3
x = 21.5
It's A. First of all, one of the only 2 things in math that will NEVER be negative is distances/lengths and times. You have a distance here, so because one of your 2 numbers is negative, you have to take the absolute value of the difference. -8-5 = -11, but the absolute value of that is 11. Put the numbers on a number line and count the units between -8 and +5 and there are 11 units between those 2 numbers.
Answer:
A'Y' is parallel to AY
Step-by-step explanation:
If X is the center of dilation, the only lines that go through X after the dilation are the ones that go through X before the dilation: XY (and XY'), XZ (and XZ').
Line AY does not go through X, so A'Y' will not go through X. Rather, the line will be moved a distance from X according to the dilation factor. The line A'Y' will be parallel to AY.
The only line that would be parallel to this line and still hit that point would be that line. Is that an option, or did the paper maybe say (4,-4) or maybe even say to draw the line perpendicular to the point?
