Answer: 275 adult tickets and 500 children's tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of children's tickets that were sold.

775 tickets were sold for the game. It means that

x + y = 775

If adults tickets sold for 2.50 and children's tickets sold for 1.00 and all the tickets were sold for a total of 1,187.50, it means that

2.5x + y = 1187.5

Substituting x = 775 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2.5(775 - y) + y = 1187.5

1937.5 - 2.5y + y = 1187.5

- 2.5y + y = 1187.5 - 1937.5

- 1.5y = - 750

y = - 750/ - 1.5

y = 500

x = 775 - y = 775 - 500

x = 275

Which system of inequalities is represented by the graph?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Option 3 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this graph the red area is above the line y = -1 which represents y ≥ (-1)

Another graph is of a line y = mx + c which passes through (2, -1) and (0, 0)

where m = (y-y')/(x-x') = (1+0)/(0-2) = -1/2

and y intercept c = 0

Therefore line is y = -1/2x

and the blue area will be y ≤ -1/2x below the line.

Hence Option 3 is the answer.

Please help I’m honestly gonna cry lol

Answer: 2z-15

Step-by-step explanation

Based on the visual image, AD is a line where a point O intersects somewhere on the line. AD is represented as 3z-11, while the segment from AO is represented as z+4.

In order to find the answer, we must subtract the entire line (AD) from AO in order to find the missing segment OD.

AD    -  AO   = OD

(3z-11) -  (z+4) = OD

Distribute the negative sign so it becomes:

(3z-11) -z - 4 = OD

Now combine like terms.

(3z-z) +(- 11 -4)= OD

2z - 15 = OD

And that is your answer!
