Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula of the equation is y=mx+n; and if m=1/2 and n=-1 then it's y=1/2x-1
<u>Answer:</u>
The number of tickets bought is 1000 adults tickets and 700 children were present
<u>Explanation:</u>
Let the number of children and adults present in the circus be x and y respectively
According to question,
Then, x + y = 1700 ……………..equation (1)
And, cost of ticket to circus for children and adult be 19, 42 respectively
Total cost of ticket;
for adults = 42y; for children = 19x
19x + 42y = 55300 …………………equation (2)
Multiplying equation (1) by 19
19x + 19y = 32300 ……………… eqn (3)
Subtracting equation 1 and 3, we get
23y = 23000
y = 1000
putting this value in eq (1), we get x = 700
Therefore, 1000 adults and 700 children were present

Answer:
Children ticket cost $30 and adult ticket costs $40.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
x = price of a child ticket
y = price of an adult ticket
According to given statement;
3x+2y=170 Eqn 1
4x+6y=360 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3
3(3x+2y=170)
9x+6y=510 Eqn 3
Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3
(9x+6y)-(4x+6y)=510-360
9x+6y-4x-6y=150
5x=150
Dividing both sides by 5

Putting x=30 in Eqn 1
3(30)+2y=170
90+2y=170
2y = 170-90
2y = 80
Dividing both sides by 2

Hence,
Children ticket cost $30 and adult ticket costs $40.
