Number of Children = 165

Number of Adults = 182

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children and y be the number of adults

Then according to given statements

x+y=347\ \ \ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\and\\1.75x+2.50y=743.75\ \ \ \ Eqn 2\\From 1:\\x=347-y\\Putting\ this\ in\ equation\ 2\\1.75(347-y)+2.50y=743.75\\607.25-1.75y+2.50y=743.75\\0.75y+607.25=743.75\\0.75y=743.75-607.2\\0.75y=136.5\\

y=\frac{136.5}{0.75}\\y=182\\Putting\ y=182\ in\ eqn\ 1\\x+182=347\\x=347-182\\x=165

Number of Children = 165

Number of Adults = 182

NeX [460]

Answer:

I see what's happening here

You're face to face with greatness

And it's strange

You don't even know how you feel

It's adorable

It's nice to see that humans never change

Open your eyes, let's begin

Yes it's really me, breathe it in

I know it's a lot, the hair, the bod

When you're staring at a demigod

So what can I say except

You're welcome

For the tide, the sun, the sky

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

I'm just an ordinary demiguy

What can I say except

You're welcome

For the tide, the sun, the sky

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

I'm just an ordinary demiguy

Honestly, I can go on and on

I could explain every natural phenomenon

The tide, the grass, the ground

Oh, that was me I was messing around

I killed a snake, I buried its guts

Sprouted a tree, now you've got coconuts

What's the lesson?

What is the takeaway?

Don't mess with Maui when he's on a breakaway

And the tapestry here in my skin

Is a map of the victories I win

Look where I've been, I make everything happen

Look at that mean mini Maui just tikkity tappin'

Singing and scratchin'

Flipping and snappin'

People are clappin', hearing me rappin'

And bring the chorus back in

Well anyway, let me say you're welcome

For the wonderful world you know

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

Well, come to think of it, I gotta go

Hey, it's your day to say

You're welcome

'Cause I'm gonna need that boat

I'm sailing away, away

You're welcome

'Cause Maui's the ultimate guy

You're welcome!

You're welcome!

Which of the following is equivalent to 2 ln e^ln 5x = 2 ln 15?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

x  = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question an equation,

2lne^{ln5x}=2ln15

Step 1

e^{lnx}=x

so,

2ln(5x)=2ln15

Step 2

cancel 2 on both sides of the equation

ln{5x}=ln15

Step 3

ln{5x}-ln15=0

ln\frac{5x}{15}=0

Step 4

ln\frac{x}{3}=0

Step 5

e^{ln\frac{x}{3}}=e^{0}

Step 6

x/3 = 1

x = 3(1)

x = 3
