1600 children and 1400 adults attended

<h3>How to determine the number of adults?</h3>

Let the children be x and adult be y.

So, we have the following equations:

x + y = 3000

1.5x + 5y = 9400

Make x the subject in x + y = 3000

x = 3000 - y

Substitute x = 3000 - y  in 1.5x + 5y = 9400

1.5(3000 - y) + 5y = 9400

Expand

4500 - 1.5y + 5y = 9400

Evaluate the like terms

3.5y = 4900

Divide both sides by 3.5

y = 1400

Substitute y = 1400 in x = 3000 - y

x = 3000 - 1400

Evaluate

x = 1600

Hence, 1600 children and 1400 adults attended

1. What values of a, b, and c would you use in the quadratic formula for the following equation?
kiruha [24]
Answer: See each part below.

1) A, B, and C are the coefficients in order when it equals 0. Move over the 4 and you have 5, 9, -4 or Choice B.

3) If you graph the equation, it will be above the x-axis. Therefore, it has no roots. Choice D

4) Choice A is correct. Use the coefficients: A = 4, B = 3, C = -10. Simply plug those into the quadratic equation and you will get -2 and 1.25.

Can I have some help with this, I need to figure out the answer and the reasoning for it.​
dangina [55]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In statement (1), we are given that m∠BAC=m∠BCA

If the two angles are congruent, this means that the sides opposite the angles are also congruent. These sides are AB and BC. Therefore:

AB=BC    |    B. sides opposite equal angles are equal

:Done

*The side opposite a given angle is the side towards which the angle opens up to. For example, ∠BAC opens up towards the side BC, and ∠BCA opens up towards side BA.
