The cost of adult ticket is $7 and child ticket is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Price of one adult ticket = x

Price of one child ticket = y

According to given statement;

2x+7y=42    Eqn 1

3x+11y=65   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3

3(2x+7y=42)\\6x+21y=126\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

2(3x+11y=65)\\6x+22y=130\ \ \ Eqn\ 4

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 4

(6x+22y)-(6x+21y)=130-126\\6x+22y-6x-21y=4\\y=4

Putting y=4 in Eqn 1

2x+7(4)=42\\2x+28=42\\2x=42-28\\2x=14\\

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{14}{2}\\x=7

The cost of adult ticket is $7 and child ticket is $4.

Answers

1) 1

2) 11

3) 4

4) D) Yes, the constant of variation is 3

Explanation

Q1

The slope of a line is given by

Slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (0 - -2)/(-4 - -6)

= 2/2

= 1

Q2

Slope = Δy/Δx

= (8 - -3)/(2 - 1)

= 11/1

= 11

Q3

Y varies directly as X. This is written as,

Y ∞ X

Put and equal sign then introduce the constant of proportionality, K.

Y = KX

K = Y/X

K = 6/18 = 1/3

∴ Y = (1/3)X

Y = (1/3) × 12

Y = 4

Q4

32Y = 96X

Dividing both sides by 32,

Y = 96/32 X

Y = 3X

3 been the constant, Y varies directly as X.

So, the equation 32y = 96x is a direct variation.

Constant of variation = 3

Rainbow [258]
Substitute each value of x in y=2x-3

so,

first box (-2)
y= 2(-2)-3
y= -4-3
y= -7

second box (0)
y= 2(0)-3
y= 0-3
y= -3

third box (3)
y=2(3)-3
y=6-3
y=3

5. You are making your Halloween costume this year. You have 6 yards of fabric and the pattern says that you need to cut it in t
REY [17]

Answer:

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total yards of fabrics = 6 yards

you need to cut it in two pieces where one is two feet longer than the other.

First piece= x feet

Second piece= x+2 feet

Convert 6 yards to feet

6 yards = 18 feet

First piece + second piece = total piece of fabrics

x + (x+2) = 18

x + x + 2 = 18

2x + 2 = 18

2x = 18 - 2

2x = 16

Divide both sides by 2

x = 16 / 2

x = 8 feet

8 feet = 2.66667 yards

x + 2

= 8 + 2

= 10 feet

10 feet = 3.33333 yards

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet
