Answer: y=3/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
First, to find the equation, we can figure out that the cost depends on how many tickets are bought. We can use cost as our y and # of tickets as our x.
An equation in slope intercept form is as follows:
y=mx+b
To get our slope, we must figure out the relationship between the cost and the number of tickets, or the y and the x.
We can use the slope formula, 
, to find the slope, m.
= 
Thus, the slope of the equation is 3/2, making our final equation be y=3/2x.
The first statement is true.
The second statement is false.
The third statement is true.
Let P = number of coins of pennies (1 penny = 1 cent)
Let N = number of coins of nickels (1 nickel = 5 cents)
Let D = number of coins of dimes (1 dime = 10 cents)
Let Q = number of coins of quarters (1 quarter = 25 cents)
a) P + N + D + Q = 284 coins, but P = 173 coins, then:
173 + N + D + Q =284 coins
(1) N + D + Q = 111 coins
b) D = N + 5 OR D - N =5 coins
(2) D - N = 5 coins
c) Let's find the VALUE in CENTS of (1) that is N + D + Q = 111 coins
5N + 10D + 25 Q = 2,278 - 173 (1 PENNY)
(3) 5N + 10D + 25Q = 2105 cents
Now we have 3 equation with 3 variables:
(1) N + D + Q = 111 coins
(2) D - N = 5 coins
(3) 5N + 10D + 25Q = 2105 cents
Solving it gives:
17 coins N ( x 5 = 85 cents)
22 coins D ( x 10 = 220 cents)
72 coins D ( x 25 = 1,800 cents)
and 173 P,
proof:
that makes a total of 85+2201800+172 =2,278 c or $22.78
