Let x be the unknown amount of child tickets
Let 450 - x be the unknown amount of adult tickets (This is because the total amount subtracted from the child tickets can only be the adult tickets since there are no other tickets)
2x+5(450-x)=1800
(2x because each child ticket cost $2 and same for the adult tickets. Each adult ticket cost $5. So, the sum must be 1800.)
Simplify the equation.
2x+5(450-x)=1800 *Distribute*
2x+2250-5x=1800 *Combine like terms. (2-5=-3)*
-3x + 2250 = 1800 *Move constants and variables to opposite sides*
-2250 -2250
---------------------------
-3x=-450 *Divide by 3 to isolate the variable*
---- ------
-3 -3
x=150
So, there are 150 child tickets. To find adult tickets, just subtract children tickets from the amount of tickets bought (450-150) to get 300 adult tickets sold.
Answer:
675
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (0, 12) is y = -5x + 1
<h3>Equation of a line</h3>
A line is the distance between two points
Given the equation of a line expressed as 10x + 2y = -2. Determine the slope
2y = -10x -2
y = -5x - 1
Slope of the line is -5
The equation of a line in point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x-x1)
Substitute the point and the slope of the parallel line
y - 12 = -5(x - 0)
y - 12 = -5x
y = -5x + 12
Hence the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (0, 12) is y = -5x + 12

2x + 3 = 3x - 8
2x + 11 = 3x
3x = 33
x =11
Hello,
y-3x=2==>x=(y-2)/3
==>(x+1)²=((y-2)/3+1)²=(y+1)²/9
y=(x+1)²-5
==>y=(y²+2y1)/9 -5
==>y²-7y-44=0 ; Δ=7²+4*44=225=15²
==>y=(7+15)/2 or y=(7-15)/2
==>y =11 and x=(11-2)/3=3
or y=-4 and x=(-4-2)/3=-2
sol={(3,11);(-2,-4)}
