A rational number is actually any number which can be expressed as a fraction of two integers x/y where y or the denominator is not zero.
 
Irrational numbers as what its name may imply are those numbers that are not rational. You cannot write these numbers in fraction form; although you can write it in decimal form.

on a certain hot summer day 688 people used the public swimming pool. the daily prices are 1.75 for children and 2.00 for sdults
Virty [35]

Answer:

Number of children = x = 330

Number of adults = y = 358

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of children = x

Number of adults = y

x + y = 688 (1)

1.75x + 2.00y = 1293.50 (2)

From (1)

x = 688 - y

Substitute x = 688 - y into (2)

1.75x + 2.00y = 1293.50

1.75(688 - y) + 2.00y = 1293.50

1,204 - 1.75y + 2.00y = 1293.50

- 1.75y + 2.00y = 1293.50 - 1,204

0.25y = 89.50

y = 358

Substitute y = 358 into (1)

x + y = 688

x + 358 = 688

x = 688 - 358

x = 330

Number of children = x = 330

Number of adults = y = 358
