Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of children be 'c'.

According to question,

"There are 9 more children than parents in a room.

Let the number of parents would be 'p'.

According to question, it becomes,

c-p=9\\\\c-9=p

As there are total 25 people in the room = 25

So, it becomes,

c+p=25\\\\c+c-9=25\\\\2c-9=25\\\\2c=34\\\\c=17

Hence, there are 17 children and 17-9 = 8 parents.

Therefore, option 'c' is correct.

10-d = -34-5d solve this equation
algol13
<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>
  • Given the equation.

10 - d =  - 34 - 5d

  • Solve the equation for d-term.

Because we cannot subtract or add up constants and variables, we simply move the same variable term to the same side and constant term to the same constant side.

10 + 34 =  - 5d + d \\ 44 =  - 4d \\  \frac{44}{ - 4}  = d \\  - 11 = d

  • Answer Check

Substitute d = -11 in the equation.

10 - ( - 11) =  - 34 - 5( - 11) \\ 10 + 11 =  - 34 + 55 \\ 21 = 21

The equation is true for d = -11.

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

<u>\large \boxed{d =  - 11}</u>

The solutions to f(x) = 64 is x = 7 and x = –7.

Solution:

Given data:

$f(x)=x^{2}+15 – – – – (1)

f(x)=64 – – – – (2)

To find the solutions to f(x) = 64.

Equate equation (1) and (2), we get

x^2+15=64

Subtract 15 from both sides of the equation.

x^2+15-15=64-15

x^2=49

x^2=7^2

Taking square root on both sides of the equation, we get

x = ±7

The solutions to f(x) = 64 is x = 7 and x = –7.
