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

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (-1,3) and (1, 7)?
amid [387]

Answer:

<h3>y - 3 = 2(x+1)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in point slope form is expressed as;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is a point on the line

Get the slope;

Given the points (-1,3) and (1, 7)

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 7-3/1+1

m = 4/2

m = 2

Substitute the point m = 2 and the point (-1, 3) into the formula above as shown;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

y - 3 = 2(x-(-1))

y - 3 = 2(x+1)

Hence the required equation is y - 3 = 2(x+1)

The sum of the angle measures of a polygon with s sides is 2340. find s.
Leviafan [203]
S=15 

Whatever the number of sides of a polygon,

the sum of its exterior angles is always <span>360∘</span>

Further, each pair of exterior angle and interior angle adds up to <span>180∘</span>

Hence in a polygon with s sides (or angles),

the sum of all the interior and exterior angles would be <span><span>180∘</span>×s</span>

and sum of interior angles would be <span><span>180∘</span>×n−<span>360∘</span>=<span>180∘</span><span>(s−2)</span></span>

As sum of angles is <span>2340∘</span>

Hence, <span>180<span>(s−2)</span>=2340</span> or <span>s−2=<span>2340180</span>=13</span>

and <span>s=13+2=15</span> and polygon is a Pentadecagon.

i hope u understand :)
