A childs ticket = $28 and an adult = $45 
Total Cost to each family is the number of adult tickets bought multiplied by "x" PLUS the number of child tickets bought multiplied by "y" 
Henson's equation = 3x + y = 163 Garcia's equation = 2x + 3y = 174 
using the substitution method we need to express either x or y in terms of the other variable. In this example looking at the Henson equation it is very easy to express y in terms of x. 
Rewrite the Henson equation to make y the subject y = 163 - 3x Substitute this value (163 - 3x) for "y" in the Garcia equation which now becomes 
2x + 3(163 - 3x) = 174 Expand the bracket 2x + 489 - 9x = 174 -7x + 489 = 174 Add 7x and subtract 174 from both sides of the equation 315 = 7x 315/7 = x 45 = x An adult ticket costs $45 Substitute this back into the Henson equation 3 * 45 + y = 163 135 + y = 163 y = 163 - 135 = 28 A childs ticket costs $28 
Check in the Garcia equation 2 * 45 + 3 * 28 = 90 + 84 = 174 = CORRECT 
A childs ticket = $28 and an adult = $45

Name two points on the line y = 6x. Does it describe a<br> proportional relationship?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

b. Non-proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

A table of values that represents a proportional relationship will have the same ratio of every pair in the given table. That is, y/x will result in the same value all through for every given pair.

The table of values given does not show a proportional relationship, because the ratio of y to x of each given pair of values are different and unequal:

y/x = 3/1 ≠ 5/2 ≠ 7/3 ≠ 9/4

Therefore, it is non-proportional.

Find the shaded area in the figure below. Then, explain the steps you used to find the area
Korolek [52]

Answer:

650.

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so first multiply the Length and the width of the rectangle together to get its area, which is 500.

to find the area of the triangle, just multiple the length times the width (15 x 20) and divide it by two. You should get 150.

Add 150 and 500 together, and that's your total area:

650.
