E. You will see perpendicular lines.
D. You will see parallel lines.
Georgia Connections Academy is selling tickets to its Spring Fling. Adult tickets cost $4 and student tickets cost $2.50. The school makes $2,820. Write an equation that represents this situation to find the cost of all adult and student tickets sold. Use the variable s for student tickets and a for adult tickets sold.
The equation that represents the cost of all adult and student tickets sold is:
4a + 2.50s = 2820
900 tickets are sold for the spring fling. Write an equation to represent this situation.
a + ? = ?
To represent the situation where 900 tickets are sold for the spring fling, we need to specify the relationship between the number of adult tickets (a) and the number of student tickets (s).
If we assume that all the tickets sold are either adult or student tickets (no other categories), we can write the equation as:
a + s = 900
This equation represents the total number of tickets sold, where a is the number of adult tickets and s is the number of student tickets.
