4c+5.6d=1360
Let
Children (c)=x
Adults (d)=284-x

4x+5.6 (284-x)=1360
Solve for x
4x+1590.4-5.6x=1360
4x-5.6x=1360-1590.4
-1.6x=-230.4
X=230.4÷1.6
X=144 children

284−144=140 adults

What is the answer to this

olasank [31]

Three times the variable m minus four is equal to fourteen.

Another way could be:

Four less than three multiplied by m is equivalent to fourteen.

The first way I put it is simpler but if you really want to impress your teacher then I suggest going with the second way.

Also if you are looking to solve the equation then it would be:

3m - 4 = 14

+4 +4

------------

3m = 18

----- -----

3 3

m = 5

Hope that helped :-)

Use the value of the linear correlation coefficient r to find the coefficient of determination and the percentage ofthe total va

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of determination = $r^{2} = 0.885^{2}$ = 0.7832

It means about 78% variation in waist size of males can be explained by their weight and about 23% can not be explained.
