Simple
suppose number of adults entered park on Saturday be = x
 number of children entered park on Saturday  be = y 
so we get equation 
  x + y =1300
 x= 1300 - y { equation 1}

now for each children ticket is 10$ and y number of children visited park on Saturday . so children collection on Saturday = 10y
 similarly adult collection =15x
15x+10y=17250
divide all by 5
3x+2y=3450
put x = 1300 -y from equation 1 here
3(1300-y) +2y=3450
3900 - 3y +2y = 3450
3900 - y =3450 
3900-3450 = y
450= y
so number of children visited park on saturday = 450
number of adult visited park on saturday = 1300 - 450 =850

8 less than 2 times a number is greater than the sum of the same number and 9
lyudmila [28]

step-by-step explanation:

every time we see "a number" or "the same number," we can add a variable (we'll use x here).  rewriting the problem, we get: 8 less than 2 times x is gr8er than the sum of  x and 9.  

next, we can work backwards to write an inequality.  we know from the word problem above that the number on the left side of the equation is 8 less than 2x, so we can rewrite that part like this: 2x-8.

for the right side of the equation, all we have to do is simplify "the sum of x and 9" to x + 9.  so now the inequality should look like this: 2x - 8 > x + 9.  

now we'll solve the inequality just like an equation: subtract x from both sides of the inequality, so now we have: x - 8 > 9.

then, we can add 8 to both sides to get the x by itself, and we get the answer: x > 15

hope this helps! <em>:)</em>

Kim purchased 6 small containers of potato salad and Seth purchased 2 extra large containers of potato salad. What is the differ
icang [17]

I am assuming that the attached is the complete question and we need to get the information from the table.

From the table we know the below fact:

1 \; small \; container \; of \; potato \; salad \; Weighs \; \frac{2}{8} \; pounds\\\\1 \; extra \; large \; container \; of \; potato \; salad \; Weighs \; \frac{9}{8}  \; pounds

Weight \; of \; 6 \; small \; container = 6 \times \frac{2}{8}  = \frac{12}{8}  \; pounds\\\\Weight \; of \; 2 \; Extra \; large \; container = 2 \times \frac{9}{8} \; = \; \frac{18}{8}  \; pounds

Conclusion:

The difference in weights, in pounds of Kim’s and Seth’s purchases is given below:

\frac{18}{8} - \frac{12}{8} =  \frac{18-12}{8}   = \frac{6}{8}  \\\\Simplifying \; the \; fraction \; dividing \; by \; 2 \; on \; both \; numerator \; and \; denominator\\\\ \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2}  = \frac{3}{4}

Final answer : <em><u>0.75 pounds</u></em>

The number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to a continuous exponential growth model, with a growth rate
Kazeer [188]
Set the growth factor equal to 2
e^{.076 t} = 2
Solve for t, Take natural log of both sides
ln (e^{.076 t}) = ln(2)  \\  .076 t = ln(2)  \\ ........ \\  t = \frac{ln (2)}{.076}
