Answer:

The number of tickets sold to the public was 375

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

At a charity basketball game, 450 tickets were sold to students at a school. The remaining x tickets were sold to the public. The students paid $15 and public $25. When all the tickets were sold, $10,500 was collected. How many tickets were sold to the public?

Let

x ----> number of tickets sold to the students

y ----> number of tickets sold to the public

we know that

$x+y=450$ ----> equation A

$15x+25y=10,500$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

The solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (75,375)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of tickets sold to the public was 375

A boy purchased (bought) a party-length sandwich 54 in. long. He wants to cut it into three pieces so that the middle piece is

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

length of shortest piece = 13 in

length of middle piece = 19 in

length of longest piece = 22 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of sandwich = 54 inch

Let shortest piece = x

Middle piece = x+6

Longest piece = x+9

Add this pieces will make complete sandwich

x+(x+6)+(x+9) = 54

Solving

x+x+6+x+9 = 54

Combining like terms

x+x+x+6+9 = 54

3x + 15 = 54

3x = 54 -15

3x = 39

x = 13

So, length of shortest piece = x = 13 in

length of middle piece = x+6 = 13+6 = 19 in

length of longest piece = x+9 = 13+9 = 22 in

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point?

Artist 52 [7]

<h3>Answer: 3x-2y = 5 (choice A)</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

The given graph passes through (0,2) and (2,5)

The slope of this line is

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (5-2)/(2-0)

m = 3/2

Since the y intercept is b = 2, we go from y = mx+b to y = (3/2)x+2, which is the equation of the graphed line shown.

Any parallel line will have the same slope, but a different y intercept.

-------------------

The parallel line must pass through (x,y) = (3,2). We'll use these coordinates along with m = 3/2 to find the y intercept b

y = mx+b

2 = (3/2)(3)+b

2 = 9/2+b

2-9/2 = b

4/2 - 9/2 = b

-5/2 = b

b = -5/2 ... is the new y intercept

The equation of the parallel line is y = (3/2)x-5/2, which is in slope intercept form

-------------------

Let's convert to standard form

y = (3/2)x-5/2

2y = 3x-5 .... multiply everything by the LCD 2 to clear out fractions

2y+5 = 3x

3x = 2y+5

3x-2y = 5 ... is the equation in standard form of the parallel line

-------------------

As a check, we can plug (x,y) = (3,2) into that last equation above to get

3x-2y = 5

3*3-2*2 = 5 ... replace x with 3, replace y with 2

9-4 = 5

5 = 5

Confirming that (x,y) = (3,2) is on the line.
