<span>The answer to this question would be: A. the number of adults
</span>
In this question, there are 4 times as many students as adults going on the trip. If we put it into a function where s= student and a=adult, then we could get one equation:<span>
1. s=4a
</span><span>
Each student ticket cost $2 and each adult ticket cost $4. The total cost of the trip is $144. We also can get one equation for this
2. 2s+ 4a= 144

If you put the first equation into the second, you will get:
</span>2s+4a= 144
2(4a)+4a= 144

The function is already similar with <span>2(4x)+4x but it uses a instead of x. Then x = a = number of adult</span>

Scarlett is trying to find the height of a dam. She stands 90 meters away from the dam and records the angle of elevation to the
adoni [48]

Answer:

45.55 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm guessing she recorded above her height, right?

To find the height of the dam, use the tangent ratio:

tangentX=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

The height of the dam is the side opposite the given angle, and this will represent x. The adjacent side (the hypotenuse is NEVER considered the adjacent side) is the distance from Scarlett to the dam. The angle of elevation is the angle of 26°. Insert the values:

tan26=\frac{x}{90}

Solve for x. Multiply both sides by 90:

90*(tan26)=90*(\frac{x}{90})\\\\90*tan26=x

Insert equation into a calculator:

x=90*tan26\\\\x=43.9

Now add Scarlett's height:

43.9+1.65=45.55

The dam is 45.55 meters tall.

<em>Finito</em> :D

PLS HELP !!! U WILL GET 13 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST !!THIS IS A TEST AND I NEED TO SHOW WORK PLS PLS HELP AND ONLY ANSWER IF U KNOW
erastova [34]

Answer:

This should be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel only if their slope matches. They are said to be perpendicular only if the slopes are negative reciprocals.

Here, you should put both equations in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b. The letter "M" represents the slope of both equations.

2y-6=3x+4 turns into 2y=3x+10 after adding 6 and into y=3/2x+5 after dividing the equation by 2. The slope for this equation is 3/2.

8y=12x+8 must be divided by 8 to be in slope intercept form. This equation becomes y=3/2x+1. Here the slope is also 3/2.

The slopes for each equation match making these lines parallel.

A number consists of two digits whose sum is 12. If 16 is added to the number, then one of the digits is four times the value of
NeX [460]

Answer: The number is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sum of two digits = 12

Let the one's digit be 'x'

Let the ten's digit be '12-x'

So, Original number would be

x+10(12-x)\\\\=x+120-10x\\\\=-9x+120

If 16 is added to the number, then one of the digit is four times the value of the other.

According to question, we get that

-9x+120+16\\\\=-9x+136

so, the one's digit be 'x'.

Let the ten's digit be '4x'.

so, New number would be

10x+4x=14x

According to question, it becomes,

14x=-9x+136\\\\14x+9x=136\\\\23x=136\\\\x=\dfrac{136}{23}=12

So, the number would be

-9x+120=-9\times 12+120=-108+120=12

Hence, the number is 12.
