Answer:
57
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of children ($1.75 each) and a represent the number of adults ( $2.00 each).
We know that there were 340 people total, so c + a = 340. This implies that a = 340 - c
We also know that $1.75 c + $2.00 a = $609.25
By substituting a with 340 -c we have $1.75 c + $2.00 (340 -c) = $609.25
Use the distributive property to obtain $1.75 c + $680 - $2.00 c = $609.25
Subtract $680 from both sides and combine like terms to get - $0.25 c = -
$70.75
Now, divide both sides by -$0.25 to get c = 283, the number of children.
The number of adults is 340 - c or 340 - 283 = 57

b. draw 7 negatives + 7 positives
Step-by-step explanation:
Oh this question is kinda tricky. At first glance it’s 1 : 1.5 but notice the units. The model car is 10 inches long and the actual car is 15 feet long.
I think you know where to go from there, but 15 feet * 12 inches = 180 inches.
10 : 180 simplifies to 1 : 18 inches
56 miles : 1 hour
/2. /2
28 miles : 30 minutes
56+28. 1h+30m
84 miles : 1 hour 30 minutes
84 is the answer
