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.

Determine the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/9x - 2/3
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have a relationship between their slopes. Their slope are negative inverses of each other. This means is one is 3 then the negative reciprocal is the other or -1/3. The slope here is 1/9 so the perpendicular slope is -9. Slope is always attached to the x term so A is the solution.
