Answer: price of a senior citizen ticket = $3.71

Let the price of a child ticket = $4.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a senior citizen ticket = x

Let the price of a child ticket = y

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 22 senior citizen tickets and 10 child tickets for a total of $126. This will be:

22x + 10y = 126 ............ i

The school took in $51 on the second day by selling 3 senior citizen tickets and 9 child tickets. This will be:

3x + 9y = 51 ........... ii

22x + 10y = 126 ............ i

3x + 9y = 51 ........... ii

Multiply equation i by 3

Multiply equation ii by 22

66x + 30y = 378 ....... iii

66x + 198y = 1122 ........ iv

Subtract iii from iv

168y = 744

y = 744/168

y = 4.43

Since 3x + 9y = 51

3x + 9(4.43) = 51

3x + 39.87 = 51

3x = 51 - 39.87

3x = 11.13

x = 11.13/3

x = 3.71

6y+4−3y−7=3(y−1) How many solutions are for this?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Infinite amount of solutions.

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Regular + Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

6y + 4 - 3y - 7 = 3(y - 1)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                         3y - 3 = 3(y - 1)
  2. Distribute 3:                                       3y - 3 = 3y - 3
  3. Subtract 3y on both sides:               -3 = -3

Here we see that there will be infinite amount of solutions. We can plug in any number <em>y</em> and it will render the equation true.

Simplify (write without absolute value sign): |x+3|, if x&gt;2
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 2 in for x

|2+3| = 5

This would take the absolute value of the answer, or in other words once you solve the equation it will remove any negatives to return a positive number. I took the test and I have links to prove it.

Find the slope and y-intercept for this table.​
labwork [276]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we use the following formula:

\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }

For this case, we can use (6,60) as the first set of points.

We can use (4,70) as the second set of points.

Now, we can use the formula, 70-60 is for the top of the fraction (10)

We can do 4-6 to find the bottom, which is (-2)

Now, if we add the fraction back we get -> 10/-2 which is -5 for slope!

To find out the y intercept, it in simple words is "What is y when x is 0?".

We can do that by using the slope intercept formula: y=mx+b.

Once we insert our slope which is -2 we get: y=-2x+b

We can now substitute a point, lets use (6,60) so we can find out b.

We now get the equation: 60=-5(6)+b.

If we solve for that we get 90!

Once we input that, we get, y=-5x+90

Now we put in x as 0 and we get our y intercept as 90!

If this answer helped, consider marking as brainliest!!
