Answer: 60 student tickets were sold

90 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of student tickets sold.

Let y represent the total number of adult tickets sold.

The Glee Club sold a total of 150 tickets to their spring concert. This means that

x + y = 150

x = 150 - y

Student tickets cost $5.00 each and adult tickets cost $8.00 each. If they had $1,020 in ticket sales,then,

5x + 8y = 1020 - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 150 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5(150 - y) + 8y = 1020

750 - 5y + 8y = 1020

- 5y + 8y = 1020 - 750

3y = 270

y = 270/3 = 90

x = 150 - 90 = 60

Multiple Choice Suppose y varies directly as x. if y = 5 when x=8, find y when x=64
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y∞x

then

y=kx (with k as constant)

y=5 when x=8

⇒Putting this in the first equation

⇒5=k×8

⇒k=5/8

Now

y=? when x=64

Putting x=64 in the first equation

y=kx

⇒y=(5/8)×64

We get

y=40

Describe several real world situations can be modeled by equations of the form Y equals MX plus be or Y equals MX explain how th
lara [203]

The linear equation represents y = mx + b describes several real world situations such as

  • Relation between printer and ink cartridges,
  • Relationship between number of songs and how much is left on the card.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Linear equations  y = mx + b.  

m is your rate of change.

b is your constant. This is the initial value of y. The value of y when x is 0.

Finally, y is the thing that depends on x.

Oh right, examples:  

  •  I buy a printer for $100 and the ink cartridges cost $25 each. The relationship between ink cartridges and total cost.

total cost = 25(cartridges I buy) + 100 or y = 25x + 100

  • I get a $100 iTunes gift card for my birthday and then start buying $1 songs. The relationship between the number of songs I buy and how much is left on the card

amount left on card = -$1(songs bought) + 100 or y = -x +100

Find the measure of the missing angles. WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Ivahew [28]
D = 90
This is because any line is equal to 180 degrees, we see that d is situated on a line that continues into another angle, the other angle is 90 degrees, so we minus 90 from 180, to get 90.

E = 99
E is situated on a line with the other angle F, F = 81 (see below) so we minus 81 from 180


F = 81
F is situated on a line, we minus it from the other angle situated on the same line, so we minus 99 from 180to get 81

Hope this helps! Please make me the brainliest, it’s not necessary but appreciated, I put a lot of effort and research into my answers. Have a good day, stay safe and stay healthy.
