Step-by-step explanation:
x= -7 y=0
x= -3 y =-6
y =mx+b
b=-7
-6= -3m -7
-3m = 1
m= -1/3
y= -x/3 -7
Yvonne ran up 12 flights of stairs.
Explanation:
Understand the situation:
Yvonne ran up 1/4 of the total stairs. Afterwards, she walked the REST of the stairs, which is said to be 9 STAIRS. HOW MANY flights of stairs IN TOTAL did she run up?
When she ran the REST of the stairs, it meant she ran the other 3/4 of stairs because:
1 - 1/4 = 3/4
To add someting, that means that the 9 stairs is 3/4 of the total stairs, so lets fins the total stairs using this information:
9 ÷ 3/4 = 12
LETS CHECK IF 9 IS REALLY 3/4 of 12:
12 x 3/4 = 9

Answer:
Formulas
Step-by-step explanation:
Formulas are all unique and share the common trait of "x" and "y" values and a common purpose of helping you find the x and y value and/or answer to your question.
Let x = # of tickets sold in advance
Let y = # of tickets sold the day of
Cost of the tickets & total sales: 6x & 10y = 6828
You also know y = x + 206
Take the equation mentioned above y = x + 206 and sub it in anywhere the variable y is in the other equations so you'll have this:
6x + 10(x+206) = 6828
Now solve for x to get x = 298
To finish the problem, you must now find the number of y tickets sold.
Sub your x value that you found back into the equation y = x + 206 and you'll get y = 504.
So, 298 tickets were sold in advance and 504 tickets were sold the day of
