What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (9, -1) and (4, -11)?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points so we can find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = ( -11 - -1)/( 4 -9)

    = (-11+1)/( 4-9)

    -10/ -5

Adult tickets for the school play are $12.00 and children's tickets are $8.00. If a theatre holds 300 seats and the sold out per
Vaselesa [24]
Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.

Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.

Using the substitution method:

x + y = 300   ⇒   y = 300 - x   ⇒   Equation (3)

12x + 8y = 3280   ⇒   12x + 8(300-x) = 3280   ⇒   x = 220

y = 300 - x   ⇒   y = 300-220 ⇒ 80

Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.
