There you go good luck !!!
The standard form equation for a circle is

where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.
The standard form equation for an ellipse is

(center h, k and major and minor axes a and b)
This equation is standard form for neither, but might be general form for one.
3x = 6y - 6
x = 2y - 2
4 ( 2y - 2 ) = 4 + 5 ( 2y - 2 )
8y - 8 = 4 + 10y - 10
2y = - 2
y = - 1
x = 2 ( - 1 ) - 2
x = - 4
i am a mathematics teacher. if anything to ask please pm me
<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:
<u>Let's first set up some variables</u>:
- c: # of children
- a: # of adults
<u>Let's examine the information given:</u>
- Elevator can hold a maximum of 1500 pounds
⇒ average child is 75 pounds
⇒ average adult is 150 pounds
⇒<em> therefore</em>: 
- Elevator can fit no more than 14 people
⇒ <em>therefore</em>: 
<u>Let's graph the equations</u>:

⇒ look at the image attached
<u>The point at which the two graphs intersect:</u>
⇒ <em>is the solution that represents the amount of children and adults and </em>
<em> their combine weight</em>
<em />
<u><em>With the horizontal axis being the # of children and vertical axis being the # of adults</em></u><em>:</em>
<em> ⇒ the </em><em>solution is 8 children and 6 adults</em>
<em></em>
<u>Answer: 8 children and 6 adults</u>
<u></u>
Hope that helped!
