Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Decreasing a percentage from a number can be done by multiplying said number and percentage together. That being said:

16 * 25% = 4

Meaning that the result of the number 16 being decreased by 25% is 4

25% = 1/4
1/4 x 16 = 4
Therefore your answer is 4

Answer:

94 children, 64 students, and 47 adults attended the movie theater.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let; a be for adults, s for students, and c for children.

Make a system to solve for the amount of people.

c/a = 2

a + 2a + s = 205

3a + s = 205

Simplify.

s = 205 - 3a

s = 205 - 3a

c = 2a

Plug it in.

5c + 7s + 12a = 1482

10a + 7(205 -3a) + 12a = 1482

10a + 1435 - 21a + 12a = 1482

a + 1435 = 1482

a = 47

Substitute.

c = 2(47)

c = 94

Solve.

s = 205 - 3(47)

s = 64

I have two questions to solve<br><br> -3x+10=34<br><br> 13x-4=11x+10-8
Marina CMI [18]

-3x + 10 = 34

Subtract 10 from both sides:

-3x = 24

Divide both sides by -3:

X = 24 / -3

X = -8

I have two questions to solve

-3x+10=34

13x-4=11x+10-8

Combine like terms on the right side:

13x -4 = 11x + 2

Subtract 11x from both sides:

2x -4 = 2

Add 4 to both sides:

2x = 6

Divide both sides by 2:

X = 6/2

X = 3

I got 3.825

your equation would be
(2x-1)(x+7)=72

when you distribute youd get
2x^2 +13x -7 =72

move the 72 over giving you
2x^2 +13x -79=0

i used the quadratic formula and the answer would be 3.825 because a negative answer wouldn’t make sense in this situation
