To answer the first question, we have these two equations:

x + y = 500 and 7.5x + 4.5y = 2550

We can use substitution to solve for x and then plug it back into any equation and find y.

y = 500 - x

7.5x + 4.5 (500 - x) = 2550

7.5x + 2250 - 4.5x = 2550

3x = 300

x = 100 adults

100 + y = 500 → y = 400 students

To answer your second question, we have two new equations:

2x = y (This may be confusing, but since there were more student tickets sold, it is the larger number.)
x + y = 300

We can rewrite the first equation and add them together:

2x - y = 0
x + y = 300

3x = 300

x = 100 adults

100 + y = 300 y = 200 students

The money earned from these 300 people is 100 * 7.5 + 200 * 4.5 = 750 + 900 = $1650.

$2550 - $1650 = $900

The 300 tickets sold had a $900 fall in ticket sales.

Hope this helps!

Which equation is perpendicular to 3x - y = 9 and goes through the point (6,6)
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x - y = 9 into this form by subtracting 3x from both sides

- y = - 3x + 9 ( divide all terms by - 1 )

y = 3x - 9 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{3}, thus

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 6) into the partial equation

6 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 2 = 8

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 8 ← equation of perpendicular line
