One family spends $134 on 2 adult tickets and 3 youth tickets at an amusement park. Another family spends $146 on 3 adult ticket

s and 2 youth tickets at the same amusement park. What is the price of a youth ticket?
So this is elimination and I'm starting to get the hang of it; so you basically just find out x(let's just say that youth tickets)?

3x + 2y = $134
2x + 3y = $146

Using elimination to solve for x

9x +6y = 3*134 Multiplying 1st equation by 3

-4x -6y = -2*146 | Multiplying 2nd equation by -2



5x = 3*134 - 2*146

5x = $110

x = $22, the cost of the youth ticket

Put x= 22 Into An Equation Then Solve For y

3(22)+2y= 134
66+ 2y=134
Subtract 66
2y=68
Y= 34

CHECKING Answer ($34 being the cost of the adult ticket) y = (134-3*22)/2

3*$22 + 2*$34 = $66 + $68 = $134

In the figure below what is the value of x?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The value of x is 106

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

In the given figure

∵ The triangle in the given figure has two sides equal

→ That means the triangle is an isosceles triangle

∴ The triangle is isosceles

∵ In the isosceles triangle, the base angles are equal in measures

∵ The measure of one base angle is 37°

∴ The measure of other base angle is 37°

→ The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a Δ is 180°

∵ 37° + 37° + x = 180°

→ Add the like terms

∴ 74° + x = 180°

→ Subtract 74 from both sides

∵ 74 - 74 + x = 180 - 74

∴ x = 106

∴ The value of x is 106

Find an equation for the line that passes through the point (-4, 10) and (16, -2)
Crank

Answer:

y = 3/5x + 62/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line with two points is

m = y - y_1 / x - x _1

m = y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x _1

Equating both

y - y_1 / x - x_1 = y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1

Using what we are provided with

(-4 , 10)(16 , -2)

x_1 = -4

y_1 = 40

x_2 = 16

y_2 = -2

Imputing the values

10 - (-2) / 16 - (-4) = y - 10 / x - (-4)

10 + 2 /16 + 4 = y - 10 / x + 4

12 / 20 = y - 10 / x + 4

Lets cross multiply

12 ( x + 4) = 20(y - 10)

Open the brackets

12x + 48 = 20y - 200

12x + 48 + 200 = 20y

12x + 248 = 20y

Following this equation of line

y = mx + C

20y = 12x + 248

Let's divide through by 20 to get y.

20y / 20 = 12x + 248 / 20

y = 12x + 248 / 20

We can separate it by

y = 12x / 20 + 248 / 20

y = 3/5x + 62/5

Therefore, the equation of the line is

y = 3/5x + 62/5

Transversal CD cuts parallel lines PQ and RS at points X and Y, respectively. Points P and R lie on one side of line CD, while p
Lilit [14]

This problem is solved better well when given the drawing or the figure. It may have been given and you forgot to attach it in the question. However, so that we can solve this now, I drew the figure on my own (see the attached pic).

We can see from the figure that two parallel lines are intersected by a straight line. This type of scenario creates special angles. Angle PXY and angle RYX are called alternate interior angles since they are on the interior opposite sides of the cut.

By virtue of alternating interior angles, angle PXY and angle RYX are congruent hence:

m∠RYX = m∠PXY

m∠RYX = 64.36°
