Question

PLEASE HELP, 10 points :-3 MATH 8th grade QUESTION IS The Marcos family consists of 2 adults and 4 children. They spent a total of $40 on circus tickets. Let x represent the cost of an adult ticket, and let y represent the cost of a child’s ticket. Which graph represents the possible costs of the tickets?

Answer 1

the answer is B or the 2nd option

Answer 2

(2y + 4x) - 4x = (40) - 4x
2y = -4x + 40
(2y) / 2 = (-4x + 40) / 2
y = -2x + 20
20 is the y intercept
(-2 / 1) is the slope

B

(Or whichever the one that has a y-intercept of 20 and an x-intercept of 10.)
