Answer:
The answer is 36 adults and 88 children.
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations are:
x+y=124 and 5x+3y=444
Using substitution method:
5x+3(124+x)=444
5x+372-3x=444
2x=72
x=36
5(36)+3y=444
180+3y=444
3y=264
y=88
Answer:
a=4, b=6, c=5
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply by the reciprocal of 5/6, or 6/5
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Well if y=5x then, the constant variation would have to be 5. Hope that helps.
A
We can't really do this without seeing 28, but I can give you an educated guess. The best way for me to proceed is to solve c.
The conjecture is that x = a + b. You should always find that to be true. C is the clincher.
Here's how you do that.
x + c = 180o That's true because all straight lines have 180o. If two angles make up the straight line that means that they are always equal to 180o So x + c = 180o
Now we move to the next step. All triangles also have 180o. That means that a + b + c = 180o
So we have two conditions that equal 180o. Equalities can be equated to one another.
a + b + c = x + c Subtract c from both sides.
a + b = x.
Study what has happened. Put in mathese, the two remote interior angles equal the exterior angle, which is what you are trying to prove.
Summary
a cannot be solved without 28
b you should say that the two remote angles (a and b) will always total x
c The proof is provided for you.
What can happen with equal probability is:
even + even = even
even + odd = odd
odd + even = odd
odd + odd = even
So as much chance of even as for odd. The chance will be 1/2.
