Answer:

$-\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line perpendicular to a line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line given.

The equation of the line is:

$3x-y=6$

$y=3x-6$

The slope of this line is 3.

Thus the negative reciprocal would be $-\frac{1}{3}$

your school sold 456 tickets for a high school play. An adult ticket cost $3.50. A student ticket cost $1. Total to ket sales eq

Svet_ta [14]

A + s = 456........a = 456 - s
3.5a + s = 1131

3.5(456 - s) + s = 1131
1596 - 3.5s + s = 1131
-3.5s + s = 1131 - 1596
-2.5s = - 465
s = -465/-2.5
s = 186 <====== student tickets sold

a + s = 456
a + 186 = 456
a = 456 - 186
a = 270 <==== adult tickets sold
