Johnny is selling tickets to a school play. On the first day of ticket sales he sold 14 senior (S) citizen tickets and 4 child (C) tickets for a total of $200. On the second day of ticket sales he sold 7 senior (S) citizen tickets and 1 child (C) ticket for a total of $92. What is the price of one child ticket?

14S + 4C = 200

14S = 200 - 4C

S = (200 - 4C)/14

7S + 1C = 92

7S = 92 - C

S = (92 - C)/7

(200 - 4C)/14 = (92 - C)/7

7 x (200 - 4C) = 14 x (92 - C)

1400 - 28C = 1288 - 14C

1400 - 1288 = 28C - 14C

112 = 14C

C = 112/14 = 8

the price of one child ticket = $8

Using graph paper, determine the line described by the given point and slope. Click to show the correct graph below. (0, -2) and
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

y = -(5/2)x -2

Explanation:

The general formula for a straight line is y – mx + b.

The image below shows the graph of the line.

Step 1. <em>Calculate the slope</em>.

Slope = m = Δy/Δx = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

x₁ = 0; y₁ = -2

x₂ = -2; y₂ = 3     Calculate m

m = [3-(-2)]/(-2-0)

m = (3+2)/(-2)

m = 5/(-2)

m = -5/2

Step 2. <em>Calculate the y-intercept </em>

When x = 0, y = 2.

The y-intercept (b) is at y = -2

Step 3. <em>Write the equation </em>for the graph

y = mx + b

y = -(5/2)x - 2
