The admission fee at a fair is $2.00 for children and $4.00 for adults.

On Saturday 2,500 people entered the fair and $7,000.00 were collected.

How many children and how many adults attended? Give your answer, using x for children, y for adults.

Form of: x =, and y =

Let K = no. of children

Let A = no. of adults

2500 people mean

Kids + Adults

K + A = 2500

K = 2500 – A

2K + 4A = 7000

K + 2A = 3500

(2500 – A) + 2A = 3500

A = 3500 – 2500

(A = 1000, adults)

K = 2500 – A

K = 2500 -1000

(K = 1500, Kids)

CHECK:

1500*2 = $3000

1000*4 = $4000

(Total = $7000, people.).

A "child has six blocks, three of which are red and three of which are green". How many patterns can shemake by placing them all

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: There are 20 ways and 1680 ways respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of blocks = 6

Number of red blocks = 3

Number of green blocks = 3

So, Number of patterns she can make by placing them all in a line is given by

$\dfrac{6!}{3!\times 3!}\\\\=20$

If there are 3 white blocks

so, total number of white blocks becomes 9

So, Number of total pattern she can make by placing all nine blocks in a line is given by

$\dfrac{9!}{3!\times 3!\times 3!}\\\\=1680\ ways$

Hence, there are 20 ways and 1680 ways respectively.

in the diagram, the length of S is 2/3 the length of T. If S has an area of 368 cm squared, find the perimeter of the figure.

vivado [14]

920 cm squared. Divide S by 2 then multiply to find the value of T. If S = 368 then T = 552, 368 + 552 = 920.

The admission fee at a movie theater is $5 for children and $9 for adults. If 3200 people go to the movies and $24000 is collect

Usimov [2.4K]

For this problem, let x be the number of children and y for adults. Formulate the equations: 1st equation, x + y = 3,200 and 2nd equation 5x + 9y = 24,000. Re-arrange 1st equation into x = 3200 - y. Then, substitute into 2nd equation, 5(3,200-y) + 9y = 24,000. Then, solve for y. The 16,000 - 5y + 9y = 24000. Final answer is, y = 2000 adults went to watch the movie.
