Answer:

x=8, y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First method: substitution method</u>

3x +12y= 24 -------(1)

3x -3y= 24

3x= 3y +24 -------(2)

subst. (2) into (1):

3y +24 +12y= 24

(We are substituting the value of 3x into equation 1)

15y= 24-24 (simplify, bring constant to one side)

15y= 0 (simplify)

y= 0 (divide by 15 on both sides)

subst. into (2):

3x= 3(0)+24

3x= 24 (simplify)

x= 24/3 (divide by 3 on both sides)

x= 8

<u>second method: elimination method</u>

3x+12y=24 ------(1)

3x-3y= 24 -------(2)

(1 )- (2):

(3x+12y) - (3x-3y)= 24-24

3x+12y -3x+3y= 0

15y=0 (simplify)

y=0 (divide by 15 on both sides)

From (2):

3x= 3y+24

x= y+ 8 (divide by 3 on both sides)

when y=0,

x= 0+8

x=8

The transformation from 1 to 2 is a translation, as the shape is moved from one point to another with no rotation, reflection, or change in size.

The transformation from 2 to 3 is a reflection, as the shape is now upside down. It is still the same distance from the y-axis.

The answer is D. translation, then reflection.

Students and adults purchased tickets for a recent school play. All tickets were sold at the ticket booth (discounts of any type
joja [24]

Answer:

Adult ticket = 80

Children ticket = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cost of student ticket = $8

Cost of adult ticket = $10

Number of tickets sold = 200

Total amount collected = $1760

Let number of adult ticket sold = a ; children ticket = b

a + b = 200 _-_(1)

10a + 8b = 1760 ___(2)

a = 200 - b

10(200 - b) + 8b =. 1760

2000 - 10b + 8b = 1760

- 2b = 1760 - 2000

-2b = -240

b = 120

a = 200 - b

a = 200 - 120

a = 80

Criag is making making a model of his neighborhood that uses model trains. the ratio of the model train to the actual train is 1
Ivahew [28]
Let x = the area of his model.  Set up a proportion. 1 is to 64 as the area of his model is to the area of his neighborhood. The order of the objects in the proportion is important. 1:64::x:200,704. Notice that the first thing in the first ratio (1:64) is the small number. The first thing in the second ration (x:200,704) is the small number. The small numbers go with the model.  The bid numbers go with the neighborhood. Set up the proportion: 1/64 = x/200,704. The small numbers are the numerators, the big numbers are the denominators.  Lots of folks have trouble with proportions because they don't keep the numbers consistent. Solve for x 200,704/64 = x x = 3136 The model will have an area of 3,136 square feet. You can set up the proportion with the big numbers on top and you get the same result. 64 is to 1 as 200,704 is to the area of the model. 64:1::200,704:x 64/1 = 200,704/x Cross multiply to solve. 64x = 200,704 x = 200,704/64 x = 3136.
