Given:
The given equation is:
Where x is the number of tickets sold for the school play a y is the amount of money collected for the tickets.
To find:
The correct table of values from the given options.
Solution:
We know that the number of tickets and amount of money collected for the tickets cannot be negative. So, options A and B are incorrect.
We have,
For ,
For ,
For ,
For ,
In option C, all the ordered pairs (0,0), (10,50), (51,255), (400,2000) are in the table. So, option C is correct.
For
Since the ordered pair (65,350) does not satisfy the given equation, therefore the option D is incorrect.
Hence, the correct option is C.

To start this problem, let's first assign a variable for the missing, consecutive odd numbers. Since they are consecutive and odd, we add two.
<u>Proof:</u> <em>3-1=2, 5-3=2</em>
The first, consecutive, odd number:
The second, consecutive, odd number:
The third, consecutive, odd number:
The fourth, consecutive, odd number:
The sum of the values are equal to 3 times the sum of the first two numbers, of which this is equal to 35 less than the fourth number. Let's create an equation to simplify this:
Complete the operations inside the parenthesis:
Distribute the parenthesis (utilizing the distributive property)
Simplify both sides:
Add -6 and -x to both sides of the equation:
Divide both sides of the equation by 5:
If is equal to -7:
The four numbers are:
I hope this helps!
