Answer:
8 tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 10 in the given equation.
We have then:
C (x) = 17.5x - 10
C (10) = 17.5 * (10) - 10
C (10) = 165
Answer:
to buy 10 tickets cost:
$ 165
b. How many tickets can you buy with $ 130?
For this case we must make the substitution: C (x) = 130
We have then:
C (x) = 17.5x - 10
130 = 17.5x - 10
Clearing x we have:
17.5x = 130 + 10
17.5x = 140
x = (140) / (17.5)
x = 8
Answer:
You can buy 8 tickets with $ 130

Answer:
r = 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, solve the equation for r:
y = rx
y/x = r . . . . . . . divide by x
__
Since r is a constant, it will be the same for any corresponding pairs of x and y. It is convenient to choose both x and y as integers, as in the third table entry.
r = y/x = 5/45
r = 1/9 . . . . . . . . . reduced fraction
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
It is not a bad idea to check to see that this works with other values of x and y. For the first line of the table, we have x = 11:
y = rx = (1/9)(11) = 11/9 = 1 2/9 . . . . matches the table value
