What is this statement asking for?
Answer:
Building and solving an equation, it is found that the coordinates are: (9,0).
We are given two points: A(-9,3) and B(21, -2).
We also want point C(x,y).
C is 3/5 of the way from A to B, thus:
This is used to find both the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate of C.
First, the x-coordinate, considering .
Then we get 9,0

I think the answer would be 5
Answer:
He can buy up to 20 tickets (ie 20 tickets or less)
The equation is 10+3.25x+5 = 80
========================================================
Explanation:
10 = admission cost
3.25 = cost per ticket
x = number of tickets
3.25x = cost from buying x number of tickets
5 = cost of nachos & coke
10+3.25x+5 = total cost of admission, tickets, and food/drink
10+3.25x+5 = 80 since this is the amount he has in his pocket
---------------
Let's solve for x
10+3.25x+5 = 80
3.25x+15 = 80
3.25x = 80-15 .... subtract 15 from both sides
3.25x = 65
x = 65/3.25 ........ divide both sides by 3.25
x = 20
Billy can buy up to 20 tickets (ie 20 tickets or less).
