X - 18 = 35. 53 is x, since 53 - 18 = 35.
30 = 60% of x
x being our variable, we need to figure out what x equals. Use the formula I put in the attachment. Multiply 30 by 60, and then divide the product by 100. That will give you the answer :)
Answer: 1,356 tickets
12x=16,272
divide by 12 on both sides
12x÷12=16,272÷12
x=16,272÷12
x=1,356
I hope this is good enough:
Answer:
-8=2x-y get this into y=mx+b form to find the y-intercept
-y=-2x-8
y=2x+8
the y-intercept is 8 so it passes through (0,8)
to find the x-intercept, set y to equal zero
0=2x+8
-8=2x
x=-4
the x-intercept is -4 so it passes through (-4,0)
the slope is 2 based on the slope-intercept form
2 1/4 * 2
9/4 * 2 = 18/4
4 1/2
