All you need to do is plug in some x values and find the correspoding y value
when x=0, y=-3
when x=1, y=9
when x=2, y=21
when x=-1, y=-15
Omitted value: The price of children ticket was omitted in the question, so i used $8 to solve. You can input the correct value and solve the same way following the steps.
Answer: 100 adult tickets must be sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
let x represent Adults
AND y represent children
Since the theater seats 250 people we have that
x+y = 250..... equation 1
Also price for Adult ticket = $11
and price children ticket =$8
With total sales at $2,300, we have that
11x + 8y= 2300----- equation 2
Step 2
Making y subject in equation 1
' x+y = 250
y= 250-x
Putting y= 250- x in equation 2
11x + 8(250-x)= 2300
11x +2000-8x= 2300
11x -8x = 2300-2000
3x= 300
x 300/3
x= 100.
To find y
x+y = 250
100+y=250
y=250-100
y=150
Therefore 100 adult tickets and 150 children tickets must be sold to get a total sales of $2,300
Both of the first
8 - N = 22
N - 8 = 22
Represent the difference between a number and 8 is 22 as it is not mentioned that either 8 or the unknown number N is greater so both of the first two represent the difference between a number and 8 is twenty two.
Say x is the number
7x +3 = 39 -2x
Add 2x to each side
9x +3 =39
Subtract 3 from each side
9x =36
Divide by 9 on each side
x=4
Hope this helped
Answer:
The equation for this should be 1.49x + 1.25y = 100
