Answer:

95

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of adult tickets for $16

Let y represent the cost of children tickets for $6

x + y = 137...........equation 1

16x +6y = 1772............equation 2

Multiply equation 1 by 16 and equation 2 by 1

16x + 16y= 2192

-

16x + 6y = 1772

10y = 420

y= 420/10

y= 42

Substitute 42 for y in equation 1

x + y = 137

x + 42= 137

x = 137-42

x= 95

Hence 95 adult tickets were sold for $16 and 42 children tickets were sold for $6

Which is the equation of a line that passes through the points (1,4) and (-1,1)
horsena [70]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 3/2x + 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of this line, start by using the two points with the slope formula to find the slope.

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

m = (4 - 1)/(1 - -1)

m = 3/(1 + 1)

m = 3/2

Now that we have the slope, we can use that and either point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = 3/2(x - 1)

y - 4 = 3/2x - 3/2

y = 3/2x + 5/2
