Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

A line parallel to the y-axis would make it a vertical line. Vertical lines have the equation x=d, where d is the x-intercept (the value of x when y=0).

We also need to know that every point a vertical line passes through has the same x-coordinate. Therefore, because this line passes through the point (2,1), we know that the x-intercept is (2,0).

Therefore, the equation of the line would be x=2.

I hope this helps!

The tickets for a concert are sold in two different categories. The cost of a ticket in the standing area in the front of the st

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The expression for the total amount of tickets sales can be give in dollars as :

⇒ $130y+73,500$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of a ticket in standing arena = $210

Cost of a ticket for a seat = $130

Total people that can accommodate in standing arena = 350

Total number of seats in the concert = $y$

To write the expression for the total amount of tickets sales if the concert is sold out.

Solution:

The concert is sold out. This means 350 tickets for standing arena and $y$ tickets for seats are sol out.

Using unitary method to find the total cost.

If a ticket in front stage arena costs = $210

Then, 350 such tickets will cost = $350\times \$ 210=\$ 73,500$

If a ticket for a seat costs = $130

Then, y such tickets will cost = $y\times \$ 130=\$ 130y$

Total amount of ticket sales can be given as:

$\textrm{Total cost of seat tickets in dollars sold + Total cost of front stage tickets in dollars sold}$

⇒ $130y+73,500$

Perform the indicated operation. 5 1/6 – 2 2/3 2 1/3 2 1/2 2 1/6

Alex17521 [72]

5 1/6 - 2 2/3

convert to improper fractions:

5 1/6 = 31/6

2 2/3 = 8/3

find common denominator:

8/3 = 16/6

31/6 - 16/6 = 15/6

15/6 = 2 3/6 = 2 1/2

!50 POINTS! GIVE REAL ANSWER OR I REPORT PLZ NO TROLLS! An executive drove from his home at an average speed of 35 mph to an air

bixtya [17]

Answer:

it took him 3 hours to get to work

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first part of the trip, the executive covered a distance "d" in time 't" at 35 mph, therefore we can write that the time it took to get to the helicopter was:

$t-\frac{d}{35}$

which if the distance is in miles, will render the time in hours.

We can write something similar for the second part of the trip", using the same "t" since it took the same time as for the first one, and using for distance 169.5 - d (since it is the distance to complete the total traveled distance :

$t=\frac{169.5-d}{78}$

Now we equal those two equations because the time "t" is the same, and solve for "d":

$\frac{d}{35} =\frac{169.5-d}{78} \\78\,d=35\,(169.5-d)\\78\,d=5932.5-35\,d\\(78+35)\,d=5932.5\\d=\frac{5932.5}{113} \\d=52.5$

Now, knowing the distance covered in the first trip, we can find the time of that first trip:

$t=\frac{52.5}{35} =1.5\,\,hours$

Therefore, the time it took for thye total trip is: 1.5 h + 1.5 h = 3 hours
