Answer:

When a line is parallel to another line, they have the same slope. So far the equation would be, y=4x+b. To find the value of b, substitute the given point into the equation.

8=4(-1)+b

8=-4+b

b=12

So, the equation of the line is y=4x+12.

Tickets to the zoo cost $12 for adults and $8 for children. The school has a budget of $240 for the field trip. An equation repr

Oxana [17]

Answer:

18 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$240 = 12x +8y$

Required (missing part of the question):

Number of children that will be able to go to the zoo if 8 adult tickets are purchased

The graph is missing. However, the question can be solved without the graph.

From the question and equation, we can deduce the following:

x represents adults
y represents children

So, when 8 adult tickets were sold.

This means

$x = 8$

Substitute 8 for x in $240 = 12x +8y$

$240= 12 * 8 + 8y$

$240= 96+ 8y$

Subtract 96 from both sides

$240 - 96 = 96 - 96 + 8y$

$144 = 8y$

$8y = 144$

Solve for y

$y= \frac{144}{8}$

$y= 18$

This means that 18 children will be able to go
