At a carnival, food tickets cost $2 each and ride tickets cost $3 each. A total of $1,240 was collected at the carnival. The num

ber of food tickets sold was 10 less than twice the number of ride tickets sold.
The system of equations represents x, the number of food tickets sold, and y, the number of ride tickets sold.

2x + 3y = 1240

x = 2y – 10

How many of each type of ticket were sold?

180 food tickets and 293 ride tickets
180 food tickets and 350 ride tickets
293 food tickets and 180 ride tickets
350 food tickets and 180 ride tickets

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations satisfy the given conditions. There are 2 equations and 2 unknowns, so a certain solution can be found.

This can be solved using substitution,

Substituting eqn 2 to eqn 1:

2(2y – 10) + 3y =1240

Simplifying,

y = 180

x = 350

Please help guys I’m really struggling

Answer: y = -4x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Plug in y1 and x1, and m. M is the slope, x1 and y1 are the values for a coordinate. You don't need to plug anything in for y or x, just y1 and x1.

First, find the slope. To find the slope, use this "formula" : slope=\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{y1-y2}{x2-x1}

Find two coordinate points. Let's use (-2,4) and (0,-4). Based on this, we know that y1 is 4, y2 is -4, x1 is -2, and x2 is 0. Plug these into the formula:

\frac{4--4}{-2-0} =\frac{4+4}{-2} =\frac{8}{-2}=-4

Then, pick any point to plug into the equation. Let's use (0,-4)

Finally, plug everything into the equation:

y - - 4 = -4(x - 0)

y + 4 = -4x

y = -4x - 4

Conti. 7-10 thanks a lot! <br><br>unhelpful answers will be deleted.​

Answers:

10. b. \displaystyle 13

9. b. \displaystyle 20

8. a. \displaystyle 33

7. a. \displaystyle 25°

Step-by-step explanations:

10. Both segments are considered congruent, so turn both expressions into an equation:

\displaystyle 3x - 5 = x + 7 \hookrightarrow \frac{-12}{-2} = \frac{-2x}{-2} \\ \\ 6 = x

Plug this back into the equation to get \displaystyle 13on both sides.

9. All edges in a square obtain congruent right angles and edges, so set \displaystyle 45equivalent to the given expression:

\displaystyle 45 = 2x + 5 \hookrightarrow \frac{40}{2} = \frac{2x}{2} \\ \\ \boxed{20 = x}

8. Both angles are considered supplementary, so turn both expressions into an equation and set it to one hundred eighty degrees:

\displaystyle 180 = (4x - 15)° + (x + 30)° \hookrightarrow 180° = (15 + 5x)° \hookrightarrow \frac{165}{5} = \frac{5x}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{33 = x}

7. In this rectangle, segment <em>EO</em><em> </em>is a segment bisectour, making these angles <em>Complementary</em><em> </em><em>Angles</em><em>.</em><em> </em>Therefore, set an equation up to find its complement:

\displaystyle 90° = 65° + m\angle{VOE} \\ \\ \boxed{25° = m\angle{VOE}}

I am joyous to assist you at any time.

On a coordinate plane, a circle has a center at (negative 2, 0). Point (negative 2, 4) lies on the circle.
wlad13 [49]

The correct answer to where the point(1, StartRoot 7 EndRoot) lies on the circle is A. Yes, the distance from (–2, 0) to (1, StartRoot 7 EndRoot) is 4 units

<h3>What is a Coordinate Plane?</h3>

This refers to the tool that is used to graph points on a two-dimensional plane that intersects two number lines.

Hence, given the information in the given diagram, there is a coordinate plane that shows a circle at the center that has certain values on the y and x-axis.

We can state that the point (1, StartRoot 7 EndRoot) lies on the circle shown because the distance from (–2, 0) to (1, StartRoot 7 EndRoot) is 4 units.

Jamal wrote the following statements:
Marat540 [252]
<span>A is the correct answer. In geometry, postulate is something that is assumed to be true without proof being given. In contrast, a theorem is a true statement which can be proven. A definition defines or explains what a term means. Statement one is a definition of perpendicular lines and statement two can be proven. </span>
