Answer:
children's: 111 and adults: 62
Explanation:
- given total number of people 173
- total amount received is $306
- during the process, we shall consider x as children and y as adult
make equations:
x + y → 173 [ this was from total people ]
1.5x + 2.25y → $306 [ this was from cost ]
try to make x the subject:
x + y → 173
x → 173 - y ______equation 1
1.5x + 2.25y → $306
1.5x → 306 - 2.25y
x → 
__________equation 2
solve them simultaneously:
= 173 - y
306 - 2.25y = 259.5 - 1.5y
-2.25 + 1.5y = 259.5 - 306
-0.75y = -46.5
y = 62
so there were total 62 adults that day in the public swimming pool.
find children's using:
x → 173 - y
x → 173 - 62
x → 111
so there were total 111 children's that day in the public swimming pool.
Ruth’s new floor cost $432.
The cost can be calculated as follows.
First, calculate the area of dining room. Use the formula of rectangle area (width x length)
Area = width x length
= 6 yd x 9 yd
= 54 sq yd
Second, calculate the total cost.
Cost = 54 sq yd x $ 8 per sq yd
= $ 432
Hence it cost $ 432 to install the new wood floor.

Answer:
x = 30/48 or x = 0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
3/2 = 4/3x + 2/3
Convert to common denominator
9/6 = 8/6x + 4/6
subtract 4/6 from both sides
9/6 - 4/6 = 8/6x + 4/6 - 4/6
5/6 = 8/6x
Divide by 8/6
5/6 x 6/8 = x
30/48 = x
x = 30/48
