280 adults were there in the train.

What is linear equation definition and example?

  • The definition of a linear equation is an algebraic equation in which each term has an exponent of one and the graphing of the equation results in a straight line.
  • An example of linear equation is y=mx + b. noun. 20.
  • A polynomial equation of the first degree (such as x = 2y - 7)

Given,

      Total children are in the train = 40

     1/8  are children in train and no of children in train ,

      ∴ 1/8 × x = 40

     x = 40 × 8 ⇒ 320

The no of  passenger in train  = 320

in total passenger, 40 are children .

So, rest adults passengers are = 320 - 40 ⇒ 280

There fore, 280 adults were there in the train.

HELP ITS MAKING ME DO ANOTHER ONE
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Since we know that each of the three triplets are the same age we can put next to n, 3.

And given that another child is 14 years old we can put that next to the "+" sign.

In total, it would equal 32, so put the 32 after the equal sign.

It should look like this:

3n + 14 = 32

But now they want us to solve for the triplet's ages, so we just solve for n;

3n + 14 = 32

-14          -14

3n = 18

/3     /3

n = 6, the triplet's ages are 6 years old each.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer: 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the jewellery shops sell 240 necklaces in a month and 180 of the necklaces were sold via the shop's website, this means that (240 - 180) = 60 necklaces were sold in a high street shop.

Therefore, the ratio of online sales to shop sales will be:

= 180 / 60

= 3 / 1

= 3:1

therefore
(3+3/4)=3.75 in

the third side must be < 3.75 in

the length could be 3 in
