Answer:

B. 150 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, number of children  = x and number of adults = y.

Since, total number of people attended the fair are 350.

So, x + y = 350.

Moreover, charges per child is $2 and adult is $3.

As, total sales are given to be $900.

So, 2x + 3y = 900

Thus, we get the system of equations,

2x + 3y = 900

x + y = 350

We will now solve the equations,

x + y = 350 ⇒ y = 350 - x

So, 2x + 3y = 900 ⇒ 2x + 3(350 -x) = 900 ⇒ 2x + 1050 - 3x = 900 ⇒ -x = -150 ⇒ x = 150.

Then, y = 350 - x ⇒ y = 350 - 150 ⇒ y = 200.

Hence, number of children and adults that attended the fair are 150 and 200 respectively.

Lilian says that 25% of a number will always be less than 75% of any other number. Complete one inequality to support Lillian's
rjkz [21]
She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.

A large mixing tank currently contains 350 gallons of water, into which 10 pounds of sugar have been mixed. A tap will open, pou
Marysya12 [62]

Answer

Let t be number of minutes since tap is opened

water is increased by 20 gallons of water per minute.

sugar increase rate of 3 pounds per minute

water :- W(t) = 350 + 10 t

sugar :- S(t) = 10 + 3 t

concentration

C(t) = \dfrac{S(t)}{W(t)}

at t = 15 minutes

C(15) = \dfrac{S(15)}{W(15)}

C(15) = \dfrac{10 + 3\times 15 }{350 + 10\times 15}

C(15) = 0.11

at beginning t = 0 minutes

C(0) = \dfrac{S(0)}{W(0)}

C(0) = \dfrac{10 + 3\times 0}{350 + 10\times 0}

C(0) = 0.0286

C(15) > C(0)

hence, concentration is increasing as time is passing.
