To answer this, you will write and equation in terms of the number of adult tickets sold and then solve for a, the number of adult tickets.

$5a + $3.50s = $2517.50
$5a + $3.50(a + 100) = $2517.50
5a + 3.50a + 350 = 2517.50
         8.50a  -350      -350
                  <u>8.5a</u>  = <u>2167.50</u>
                  8.5         8.5
    a = 255
The number of adult tickets sold was 255, and the number of student tickets sold was 355 (255 +100).

Which of the following are incorrect expressions for slope?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Option B and C are correct.

\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}

\frac{run}{rise} are the expression incorrect for slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as the change in the dependent variable  relative to the change in the dependent variable

or the ratio of the horizontal changes to vertical changes between any two points on the graph of the line.

The vertical changes between any two points is rise

The horizontal changes between any two points is run.

Formula for slope is given by:

For any two points (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2)

then slope is:

\text{Slope} =\frac{rise}{run}= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

or we can write this as:

Δy = y_2-y_1

Δx = x_2-x_1

⇒\text{Slope} = \frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}

Therefore, the expression which are incorrect for slope  are;

\frac{x_2-x_1}{y_2-y_1}

\frac{run}{rise}

Step-by-step explanation:

well the perimeter is the sum of all sides

so we have

P=4x+2x-6+10-x\\\\P=(4x+2x-x)+(-6+10)\\\\P=5x+4
