Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.25 = 125 cents.

$42 = 4200 cents

Tickets sold at 75 cents = x

Tickets sold at 125 cents = y

x + y = 40

75x + 125y = 4200

Multiply the first equation by 75

75x + 75y = 3000

75x + 125y = 4200

Subtract the the second equation from the first.

75x + 75y = 3000

- 75x + 125y = 4200

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

0 - 150y = - 1200

Divide both sides by - 150

-150y/-150 = -1200/-150

y = 8

Substitute y = 8 into the first equation

x + y = 42

x + 8 = 42

x = 42 - 8

x = 34

34 tickets were sold for 75 cents

8 tickets were sold for $1.25

Write an inequality using variables x and y whose graph is described by the given information. The points (2,5) and (-3,-5) lie
luda_lava [24]

The inequality using variables x and y which satisfy the points are; y>-3x+3.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality is defined as the relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two given functions.

Given that the points (2,5) and (-3,-5) lie on the boundary line.

The system of inequality is given by:

y>-3x+3-

Now, the point that will lie in the solution set to the following system of inequality are the point that satisfies the inequality.

a)  (6, 5)

when x=6 and y= 5

then we have:

y>-3x+3

6 > -3×5 + 3

6>- 15+3

5 > -12

This means that the point will lie in the solution set.

Also, (-2, -3) when x= -2 and y= -3

then we have:

5 > -3×(-2) + 3

5> 6 + 3

5> 9

Hence, the inequality using variables x and y which satisfy the points are; y>-3x+3.

Write an equation in slope intercept form of the line with q slope of -3/4 and y intercept of -5
elena-s [515]

Answer:

y = (-3/4)x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the slope-intercept equatin of a straight line is

y = mx + b, where m is the slope  and b is the y-intercept.

Substituting -3/4 for m and -5 for b, we get:

y = (-3/4)x - 5
