S=2d
4s+3d=300000-80000
4s+3d=220000, now using s=2d in this equation you get:
4(2d)+3d=220000
8d+3d=220000
11d=220000
d=20000
So each daughter gets 20000 and each son gets 40000.
-23/16 because
-1/2•8/8= -8/16
+-15/16
The answer would be the first choice. 
Explanation: The reason for this is that the question was pretty much just asking what the area of the resulting two-dimensional cross section would be -the shape in gray- (which can be found by using the formula
. To add on, since the dimensions of the shape are already given (5 and 3) all you've to do is multiply: 3*5=15
That's how you get to the answer.
Answer: the rate of the jet in still air is 685 mph and the rate of the jetstream is 75 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate of the jet in still air.
Let y represent the rate of the jet jetstream.
Distance = speed × time
Flying against the jetstream, a jet travels 3050 miles in 5 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x - y) mph. Therefore,
3050 = 5(x - y)
3050/5 = x - y
x - y = 610 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Flying with the jetstream, the same jet travels 3800 miles in 4 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x + y) mph. Therefore,
3800 = 4(x + y)
3800/5 = x + y
x + y = 760 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes
2x = 1370
x = 1370/2 = 685mph
Substituting x = 685 into equation 1, it becomes
685 - y = 610
y = 685 - 610 = 75mph
Answer: the price for an adult ticket is $3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price of one adult ticket.
Let y represent the price of one child ticket.
The Martinez family went to play and paid $13 for 1 adult and 4 children. This means that
x + 4y = 13 - - - - - - - - - - -1
The Hernandez family went to the same place and paid $14 for 3 adults and 2 children. This means that
3x + 2y = 14 - - - -- - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 3 by 1, it becomes
3x + 12y = 39
3x + 2y = 14
Subtracting, it becomes
10y = 25
y = 25/10 = 2.5
Substituting y = 2.5 into equation 1, it becomes
x + 4 × 2.5 = 13
x + 10 = 13
x = 13 - 10
x = 3
