Answer:

Hello,

First equation is false

Second equation is true

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

(4,-3) is a point of the line y=4x-19  since

-3=?4*4-19

-3=-3

2)

(4,-3) is not a point of the line y=1/4x-2 since

-3=? 1/4*4-2

-3=? 1-2

-3≠-1

I have written that because it is difficult for me to understand

"the negative reciprocal of the slope of the first"

the negative reciprocal of 4 should be -1/4.

Equation y=1/4x-2 is false.

ladessa [460]

Answer:

Pedro spent 9 weeks with his uncle and his friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the amount of weeks Pedro spent with his friend. The statement indicates that he spent two weeks more with his friend than with his uncle which means that you have to add the number of weeks he spent with his uncle plus 2, which you can show in a number line:

       3\frac{1}{2}                   2

___________________

1       2       3       4       5       6       7       8       9       10        

3\frac{1}{2}+2=5\frac{1}{2}

Now, you can find the and answer by adding up the number of weeks he spent with his uncle plus the weeks he spent with his friend:

       3\frac{1}{2}                                   5\frac{1}{2}

__________________________________

1       2       3       4       5       6       7       8       9       10  

3\frac{1}{2} + 5\frac{1}{2}=9

According to this, the answer is that Pedro spent 9 weeks with his uncle and his friend.

Tanzila is selling tickets to the MS127 musical. On the first day of ticket sales she sold 2 adults tickets and 10 child tickets
vekshin1

Answer:

One adult ticket is $4 and one child ticket is $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations

2x + 10y = 78

8x + 5y = 67

Solve by elimination, multiply the 2nd equation by -2

2x +10y = 78

-16x -10y = -134

Add the equations

-14x = -56

x = 4

The price of one adult ticket is $4

Plug 4 in as x to find y

2(4) + 10y = 78

8 + 10y = 78

10y = 70

y = 7

The price of one child ticket is $7

Write an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence. Then find a50.
julia-pushkina [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence above is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

A(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

From the question

a = 1/3

d = 1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6 or 2/3 - 1/2 = 1/6

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

<h3>A(n) =  \frac{1}{3}  + (n - 1) \frac{1}{6}  \\  =  \frac{1}{ 3}  -  \frac{1}{6}   +  \frac{1}{6} n</h3>

So the nth term of the sequence is

<h3>A(n) =  \frac{1}{6}  +  \frac{1}{6}n</h3>

For a50 since we are finding the 50th term

n = 50

So we have

<h3>A(50) =  \frac{1}{6}  +  \frac{1}{6} (50) \\  =  \frac{1}{6}  +  \frac{25}{3}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>A(50) =  \frac{17}{2}</h3>

Hope this helps you
