Answer:
454
Step-by-step explanation:
set up a system of equation
let y be the number of students
let x be the number of adults
because there are twice the amount of students attended as adults, we can use y=2x as one equation
the other equation will be 6.5y+9x=4972 because this represents the total amount of money
plug 2x for y : 6.5(2x)+9x=4972 : x=226
plug 226 in for the first equation : y=2(226) : y=452
<span>x+y=30.....(1) and x-y=2......(2) so(1)+(2)......x+y+x-y=30+2 so 2x=32...x=16 now apply x=16 in (1) so we get......16+y=30 so .......y=14</span>
Greatest common factor is 1 for the first one and the second one is also 1
Answer:
BC = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
If the three points are collinear, it means they lie on the same straight line.
Now B lies between A and C
By mathematical convention;
AC = AB + BC
This means;
48 = 2x + 2 + 3x + 6
48 = 5x + 8
48-8 = 5x
5x = 40
x = 40/5
x = 8
From the question BC = 3x + 6
Substitute the value of x; 3(8) + 6 = 24 + 6 = 30
