Answer:The answer is 2 if you use a calculator.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Q=1/2p+15,= p=2q-30= Slope = 1.000/2.000 = 0.500
p-intercept = -30/1 = -30.00000
q-intercept = 30/2 = 15
Step-by-step explanation: Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
p-(2*q-30)=0
Solve p-2q+30 = 0
we have an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).
"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.
In this formula :
y tells us how far up the line goes
x tells us how far along
m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is
b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis
The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line p-2q+30 = 0 and calculate its properties
Notice that when p = 0 the value of q is 15/1 so this line "cuts" the q axis at q=15.00000
q-intercept = 30/2 = 15
When q = 0 the value of p is -30/1 Our line therefore "cuts" the p axis at p=-30.00000
p-intercept = -30/1 = -30.00000
Slope is defined as the change in q divided by the change in p. We note that for p=0, the value of q is 15.000 and for p=2.000, the value of q is 16.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in p (The change in p is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 16.000 - 15.000 = 1.000 in q. (The change in q is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)
Slope = 1.000/2.000 = 0.500
Answer:
-25
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry for the mistake
First, we must let:
x = number of tickets intended for adults
y = number of tickets intended for children.
a. Write in terms of x the number of tickets for children
Solution:
x + y = 28 ⇔ y = 28 - x (equation 1)
To answer in terms of x:
no. of tickets for tickets for children = 28 - x
b. the amount spent on tickets for adults
Solution: $30 is the cost of ticket per adult and there are x number of tickets intended for adults.
Therefore,
amount spent on ticket for adults = 30x
c. the amount spent on the tickets.
Solution:
$ 15 = cost of ticket per child
$ 30 = cost of ticket per adult
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15y ⇒ (equation2)
substitute equation 1 to equation 2.
(equation 1) y = 28 - x
(equation 2) total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15y
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 15(28-x)
total amount spent on tickets = 30x + 420 - 15x
total amount spent on tickets = 15x + 420
