The 9th graders are selling tickets to raise

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sidana [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

There were 30 children and 10 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they sold tickets to adults and childrens, the sum of those tickets must be equal to the total tickets that were sold, so we can mount our first equation as shown below:

adult + children = 40

Each adult ticket costs $9 and each children costs $5 and the total recieved was $240, therefore:

9*adult + 5*children = 240

We can mount the following equation system:

adult + children = 40

9*adult + 5*children = 240

We will multiply the first equation by -5 and sum both equations:

-5*adult -5*children = -200

9*adult + 5*children = 240

4*adult = 40

adult = 40 / 4

adult = 10

adult + children = 40

children = 40 - adult = 40 - 10 = 30

There were 30 children and 10 adults.

I need help and it is y intercept and x intercept
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

y-intercept (0, -3) and x-intercept (3/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 5 =2(x + 1)

y + 5 =2x + 2

subtract 5 from both side

y =2x -3

-3 is the y-intercept because in y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept and it always starts at 0.

To find the x-intercept, we need to plug in 0 for y in y =2x -3

0=2x -3

add 3 to both sides

2x=3

divide both sides by 2

x=3/2 and so the x-intercept is 3/2 and it always starts at 0.

Plzzzzzzzzzzzz help me
grigory [225]

Answer:

y=-3/2x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the slope by taking two points on the graph, and making the one that occurs earlier in the graph (from left to right) the first point (x1, y1) and the one that occurs later in the graph the second point (x2, y2). The equation is m (or slope)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). I took the first two points in the table for this. m=(12-18)/-4-(-8)

the double negative on the bottom becomes an addition=> (12-18)/(-4+8)

the top simplifies to be -6 and the bottom simplifies to 4=>-6/4

this fraction can be reduced to -3/2, which is the slope of the graph.

Now, use point slope form (y-y1=m(x-x1)) to find the equation of the graph. Plug any coordinate on the graph in for x1 and y1 here. It should be correct as long as it is a point on the graph, but I am using the point (-8, 18) here.

=>y-18=-3/2(x-(-8))

the double negative in the parentheses becomes a positive=> y-18=-3/2(x+8)

distribute the -3/2 to every term in the parentheses=> y-18=-3/2x-12

add 18 to both sides, cancelling out the -18 on the left side of the equation=>y=-3/2x+6 (-12+18=6 to get 6 for b).

Therefore, the equation is y=-3/2x+6
