Answer: The number of $12 tickets and $15 sold are 120 and 180 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
12x + 15y = 4140 .....(1)
Where,
x stands for $12 tickets and y stands for $15 tickets
According to the question:
x + y = 300 ....(2)
Now solving equation 1 and 2.
From equation 2:
x = 300 - y
Now putting this expression in equation 1.
12x + 15y = 4140
12(300 - y) + 15y = 4140
3600 - 12y + 15y = 4140
3600 + 3y = 4140
3y = 4140 - 3600
3y = 540
y = 180
And,
x = 300 - y = 300 - 180 = 120
The number of $12 tickets sold = x = 120
The number of $15 tickets sold = y = 180
Thus, the number of $12 tickets and $15 sold are 120 and 180 respectively.
Make slope intercept
3x - y = 5
3x = y + 5
y = 3x - 5
Parallel = same slope
Slope = 3
Y = 3x + b
Plug in the point
-2 = 3(-1) + b
-2 = -3 + b, b = 1
Solution: y = 3x + 1
Can you re order them I don’t understand your problems
Subtract 4 from both sides, y = 5
