Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 x because it is always positive and gives half the value of x
There was 3000 general admission tickets sold and 500 kid ticket sold.
How did I get this?
First, we need to see what information we have.
$2.50 = General admission tickets = (G)
$0.50 = kids tickets = (K)
There were 6x as many general admission tickets sold as kids. G = 6K
We need two equations:
G = 6K
$2.50G + $.50K = $7750
Since, G = 6K we can substitute that into the 2nd equation.
2.50(6K) + .50K = 7750
Distribute 2.50 into the parenthesis
15K + .50K = 7750
combine like terms
15.50K = 7750
Divide both sides by 15.50, the left side will cancel out.
K = 7750/15.50
K = 500 tickets
So, 500 kid tickets were sold.
Plug K into our first equation (G = 6k)
G = 6*500
G = 3000 tickets
So, 3000 general admission tickets were sold,
Let's check this:
$2.50(3000 tickets) = $7500 (cost of general admission tickets)
$.50(500 tickets) = $250 (cost of general admission tickets)
$7500 + $250 = $7750 (total cost of tickets)

Answer:
y = 1/4x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line has a "rise" of -8 for a "run" of 2, so a slope of ...
m = rise/run = -8/2 = -4
The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite of the reciprocal of this slope. Its slope will be ...
-1/m = -1/(-4) = 1/4
The equation you're looking for will have an x-coefficient of 1/4. The suitable choice is ...
y = 1/4x + 5 . . . . the third choice
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We require 2 equations with the repeating decimal after the decimal point in both equations.
The bar above 136 indicates that 136 is being repeated
let x = 0.136136...... → (1) Multiply both sides by 1000
1000x = 136.136.... → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate the decimal part
999x = 136 ( divide both sides by 999 )
x =
