X=number of adults, y= number of students

x+y=12
18x+12y=162

You can simplify the second equation by dividing by six: 3x+2y=27
Rearrange the first equation: y= 12-x. Plug y into the simplified second equation:

3x+2(12-x)=27
3x-2x+24=27
x=3.

Plug the now known x value into y=12-x. So y= 9.
Therefore, there are 3 adults and 9 students.

2x + 3y + 2(x - y) - 3x


First you apply the distributive property:

2x +3y + 2(x) - 2(y) - 3x
2x + 3y +2x - 2y - 3x

The you combine like terms:

2x + 2x - 3x +3y - 2y
4x - 3x + y
x (x could also be 1x) + y (y could also be 1y)

The answer is x + y or 1x + 1y

If the cell phone company charges a flat $40 fee monthly, then the equation would be y = 40.


The company does charge $40 a month, but also charges $2 per minute out of service area (x).

So the equation is y = 2x + 40

To graph this linear function, plug in values for x then plot the plots. Then draw a line to connect the points.

y = f(x)

f(0) = 40
f(1) = 42
f(2) = 44
f(3) = 46
f(4) = 48
f(5) = 50

So at x=0, draw a point at y=40 and so on.
