Slope of the line is -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given that (-2, 4) is a point on the line y = mx + 1, find slope m.
Since the point is on the line, the coordinates will satisfy the equation.
⇒ 4 = m × -2 + 1
⇒ 4 = -2m + 1
⇒ 3 = -2m
∴ m = -3/2
Answer:
- 400 adult tickets
- 325 children's tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then 725-x is the number of children's tickets sold, and the total revenue is ...
2.50x +1.50(725 -x) = 1487.50
1.00x + 1087.50 = 1487.50 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
x = 400 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1087.50
There were 400 adult tickets and 325 children's tickets sold.
Answer:
y = -1/4x - 5/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming you mean y = -1/4x + 5.
This has slope of -1/4 so the required equation has the same slope ( as they are parallel).
Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line:
y - (-3) = -1/4(x - 2)
y + 3 = -1/4(x - 2)
y = -1/4x + 1/2 - 3
y = -1/4x - 5/2
