x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
x + y = 12
<span>14x + 10y = 140
lets multiply the first equation by -10 and then add it to the second equation:
-10x - 10y = -120
</span>14x + 10y = <span>140
</span>-----------------------
4x + 0 = 20
x = 20/4
x = 5
then substitute in the original equation:
x + y = <span>12
</span>5 + y = <span>12
</span>y = 12 - 5
y = 7
therefore there were 5 adults and 7 children
Answer:
y = 7 sqrt(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a triangle, we can use trig functions
sin theta = opp/ hyp
sin 45 = 7/y
y sin 45 = 7
y = 7/ sin 45
y = 7 / (1/sqrt(2) )
y = 7 sqrt(2)
Answer: yes
Step-by-step explanation:
gina saved $14
convert your percentage into a decimal: 20% converts to 0.20
then, just multiply 0.20 with 70. you should get 14.
