The school that Molly goes to is selling tickets to a spring musical. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 10 adult

tickets and 10 student tickets for a total of $260. The school took in $94 on the second day by selling 5 adult tickets and 2 student tickets. Write and solve a system of linear equations to find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a student ticket.

Answer:

Student ticket: $12, Adult ticket: $14

Equations: 260=10x+10y, 94=2x+5y

Step-by-step explanation:

Set adult tickets as y

Set student tickets as x

First day: Total made is 260 so set that equal to 10x + 10y

--> 260=10x+10y

Second day: Total made is 94 so set that equal to 2x + 5y

--> 94=2x+5y

I find it easier to have simplified terms so simplify (divide by 2) the first equation to get: 130=5x+5y

All you have to do now is solve for the two variables.

94=2x+5y - (130=5x+5y) --> x=12, y=14

Which equation represents the line that passes through the point (4, -5) and is perpendicular to the line x + 2y = 5?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

y = 2x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c, m is the gradient and c is the intercept

The line passes through points 4 and -5, x is 4 and y is -5

-5 = 4m + c

When two lines are perpendicular, the products of their gradients are equal to -1, m1 * m2 = -1

x + 2y = 5

2y = -x + 5

y = (-1/2 * x) + 5

therefore m = -1/2

m1 * m2 = -1

m * -1/2 = -1

-m = -2 , therefore m = 2

-5 = 4 * 2 + c

c = -5 - 8, which is -13

Therefore the equation for the line is

y = 2x - 13
