The number of adults = 41

The number of children = 97

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adults and

y be the number of children

then according to the given conditions

x+y = 138\ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\11x+4y = 839\ \ \ Eqn\ 2

From equation 1:

x = 138-y

Putting in equation 2

11(138-y)+4y = 839\\1518-11y+4y = 839\\1518 -7y = 839\\-7y = 839-1518\\-7y = -679\\

Dividing both sides by -7

\frac{-7y}{-7} = \frac{-679}{-7}\\y = 97

Putting y = 97 in equation 1

x+ 97 = 138\\x = 138-97\\x = 41

Hence,

The number of adults = 41

The number of children = 97

Find the surface area. round to the nearest hundredth when necessary.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The surface area of the cuboid is 648 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have here is cuboidal in outlook

By using the formula for the surface area of a cuboid, we can get the surface area of the shape

mathematically, we have the surface area of a cuboid as follows;

2(lb + lh + bh)

where l is the length, b is the breadth (width) and h is the height

We can have the length as 9 m, the width as 9 m and the height as 13.5 m

Substituting these values, we have the surface area of the cuboid as;

A = 2(9(9) + 9(13.5) + 9(13.5))

A = 2(81 + 243)

A= 2(324)

A = 648 m^2

Is there enough information to prove P is parallel to Q if so state the theorem or postulate?
stira [4]
Yes there is. i do not know the theorem but I know it's rule. If 2 lines intersect the same line, and they have an equal angle in the same quadrant then they are parallel. This is because their all of their angles would be equal and they are basically the same line but shifted over

A triangle has side lengths of 24 in., 32 in., and 40 in. Is the triangle acute, obtuse, or right? A) right. B) obtuse. C) acute
statuscvo [17]
The answer is:  [A]:  "right [triangle]" .
________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________
Given:  Side lengths:
________________________________________________
  " <span>24 in., 32 in., and 40 in " ;  
________________________________________________
Divide each side length by "8" ; 
</span><span>
24 in. / 8 = 3 in. ; 

32 in. / 8 = 4 in. ;  and
 
40 in. / 8 = 5 in. . 
_________________________________________________
3 in . , 4, in,  5 in. ;  is a "right triangle" ; 

since:  3</span>² + 4² = 5² ;

→  9 + 16 = 25 ; 

according to the Pythagorean theorem:  " a² + b² = c² " .
