Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation. Mx+b=y.
m=slope
x=x coordinate
y=y coordinate
b=y intercept (where x=0)
For this problem, you need to plug in 2 "coordinates", <em>ex</em> (1,16), and (0,__). You would need to find the slope, which would be y2-y1/x2-x1 (find two "coordinates" and then put it in, order doesn't matter.)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are confused as to how the answer is 9 then all we have to do is solve for c
c + 11 = 20
So in order to solve this you have to subtract 11 from 20 to get c alone on one side so...
c = (20-11)
c = 9
Let child admissions be x and adult admissions be y. We can then use the information given to form a system of equations and solve that system.
The first equation is based on the information about the money made.
5.50x+8.60y=726.40
The second equation is based on the fact that twice as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold.
y = 2x
Since we have an equation equal to one of the variables, substitution will be the easiest way to solve this system. This is when we replace the variable of an equation with its value in the other.
5.50x+8.60y=726.40
5.50x+8.60(2x)=726.40
5.50x+17.2x = 726.40
22.7x = 726.40
x = 32
The number of children tickets sold was 32.
Extra:
To find the number of adult tickets can be found by plugging in the known value we found and solving for the other unknown.
y = 2x
y = 2(32)
y = 64
The number of adult tickets sold was 64.
985
985 is the largest 3-digit number possible with the digits 5, 8 and 9.
