Answer:

Y = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(-9 + y) = 2.5

1/2 * -9 = -4.5

1/2 * y = 0.5y

-4.5 + 0.5y = 2.5

+4.5             +4.5

0.5y = 7

/0.5   /0.5

y = 14

Answer:

\frac{1}{2} ( - 9 + y) = 2.5 \\  - 4.5 + 0.5y = 2.5 \\ minus \:  - 45 \: both \: sides \: of \: the \: equation \\  \frac{0.5y}{0.5}  =  - \frac{ 7}{0.5}  \\   y =  14

Answer:

The Graph Shifts 4 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so, when you add four to a graph in this manner we have to look at the equation as a whole. f(x)=mx+b + 4. By adding four we are changing the y-intercept and shifting it up four. This will cause the entire graph to shift upwards four spaces.

A movie theater has a seating capacity of 329. The theater charges $5.00 for children, $7.00 for students, and $12.00 of adults.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

170 children

74 students

85 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

C = Children; S = Students; A = Adults

For the capacity, we have:

C + S + A = 329

For the tickets sold, we have:

5C + 7S + 12A = 2388

Half as many as adults are children implies that:

A = \frac{C}{2}

Required

Solve for A, C and S

The equations to solve are:

C + S + A = 329 -- (1)

5C + 7S + 12A = 2388 -- (2)

A = \frac{C}{2} -- (3)

Make C the subject in (3)

C = 2A

Substitute C = 2A in (1) and (2)

C + S + A = 329 -- (1)

2A + S + A = 329

3A + S = 329

Make S the subject

S = 329 - 3A

5C + 7S + 12A = 2388 -- (2)

5*2A + 7S + 12A = 2388

10A + 7S + 12A = 2388

7S + 22A = 2388

Substitute S = 329 - 3A

7(329 - 3A) + 22A = 2388

2303 - 21A + 22A = 2388

2303 +A = 2388

Solve for A

A = 2388 - 2303

A = 85

Recall that: C = 2A

C = 2 * 85

C = 170

Recall that: S = 329 - 3A

S = 329 - 3 * 85

S = 329 - 255

S = 74

Hence, the result is:

C = 170

S = 74

A = 85

Seven times a number is less than or equal to a quantity that is 24 less than that same
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

7x\leq x-24

Here, x denotes the required number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the required number that satisfies the following condition.

''seven times a number is less than or equal to a quantity that is 24 less than that same  number''

Seven times a number is equal to 7x

Quantity that is 24 less than that same  number is equal to x-24

Now find the inequality.

As seven times a number is less than or equal to a quantity that is 24 less than that same  number,

7x\leq x-24
