Your equation should be
$4(40 tickets) + $5(X) = $400
160 +5x = 400
-160            -160
   0     5x =  340
  divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 340/5
x = 68

so they need to sell 68 tickets at the door.

4(40) + 5(68) = 400
160 + 340  + 400
400 + 400

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Let us notice that the questioner had put the words "at least" in their problem; so this would be an inequality problem.

Let us say x represents the number of tickets sold at the door and y is the number of tickets sold in advance.

If this is so, your problem should be;

5x+4(40)≥400

1. Distribution; 5x+160≥400

2. Subtract 160 from both sides; 5x+160-160≥400-160

3. you are left with; 5x≥240

4. divide 5 from both sides; 5x/5≥240/5

5. you are left with; x ≥ 48

Meaning; they need to sell 48 or more tickets at the door to reach their goal of $400.

An electrician charges a flat service fee to accept a job and an additional hourly rate to complete the job. The amount an elect
Colt1911 [192]

The interpretation of the slope in the context of the problem is: For every hour the electrician works, her pay will increase $28.

<h3>How to Interpret the Slope of a Function?</h3>

The slope of any function is the unit rate or average rate of change of the given function for that situation.

Given the function, E(x) = 130 + 28x, where:

E(x) is the amount an electrician charges per job

130 is the flat rate service which is the starting value or y-intercept

28 is the unit rate or slope, which is the fee charged per hour by the electrician to complete a job.

Thus, the interpretation of the slope in the context of the problem is: For every hour the electrician works, her pay will increase $28.
