Answer:
134 children and 120 adult plates were served
Step-by-step explanation:
let the children mean be x
Let the adult meal be y
If fourteen less children’s meals were served than adult meals at a barbecue, then;
y = x - 14 .... 1
IF Children plate were 1.50 each and adult plates were 2.00 each with a total of 441 in amount then;
1.5x + 2y = 441 .... 2
Substitute 1 into 2;
1.5x + 2(x-14) = 441
1.5x+2x-28 = 441
3.5x = 441+28
3.5x = 469
x = 469/3.5
x = 134
Recall that y = x - 14
y = 134-14
y = 120
Hence 134 children and 120 adult plates were served
Answer: 44 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Using proportion,
33 gallons = 3hours
X = 4hours
Cross multiply
3 × X = 33 × 4
3X = 132
Divide bothside by 3
3x/3 =132/3
X = 44
Therefore the helicopter uses 44gallons for 4 hours.
