Answer:

11y = 1155

$5 raffle tickets: 105

x = 4(105) - 2

$1.5 raffle tickets: 418

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x + 5y = 1152    

x = 4y – 2

1.5(4y - 2) + 5y = 1152

6y - 3 + 5y = 1152

11y = 1155

y = 105

x = 4(105) - 2

x = 418

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x + 5y = 1152    

x = 4y – 2

We can substitute the second equation into the first equation

Which one-variable linear equation can be formed using the substitution method?

1.5(4y-2) +5y = 1152  

Distribute

6y -3 +5y = 1152

Combine like terms

11y-3 = 1152

Add 3 to each side

11y-3+3 = 1152+3

11y = 1155

Divide each side by 11

11y/11 = 1155/11

y = 105

How many $5 raffle tickets were sold?

105 5 dollar tickets were sold

Now we need to find the number of 1.50 tickets

Which equation can be used to determine how many $1.50 raffle tickets were sold?

x = 4y – 2

x = 4(105) -2

   =420-2

   = 418

How many $1.50 raffle tickets were sold?

418    $1.50 tickets were sold

The cell phone company decided to collect similar data but this time they collected information of texting speed according to ag
Ludmilka [50]

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know, Scatter plots resembles line graphs in that they are plotted on the x and y axis and the purpose of a scatter plot is to shows if the variables are related to each other. If yes, they can draw a line of best fit which can expose or go through most of the points in the plot.

Given the information in the question, we know:

"they collected information of texting speed according to age"

=> We have 2 variables here which are age and (texting speed)

Step 1:

  • Label the x-axis the input variable (age)
  • Label the y-axis the output variable (texting speed)

Step 2: Plot the points according to age and texting speed

Hence, from that plot, it could have two cases in the relation of age and texting speed which are "the more time, more text is written", or "the less time, more text is written".
