Answer: 144 children and 170 adults were admitted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children that were admitted.

Let y represent the number of adult that were admitted.

On a certain day, 314 people entered the park. This means that

x + y = 314

The admission fee at an amusement park is $5.00 for children and $6.00 for adults. The admission fees collected totaled $1,740.00 dollars. This means that

5x + 6y = 1740 - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 314 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5(314 - y) + 6y = 1740

1570 - 5y + 6y = 1740

- 5y + 6y = 1740 - 1570

y = 170

x = 314 - y = 314 - 170

x = 144

Answer:

144 children and 170 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

make 2 equations

make :

the children as the regarded as the variable : x

the adults are the regarded as the variable  : y

<em>5x + 6 y = 1740</em>

<em>x + y = 314</em>

<h3><u>solve this by the method of elimination </u></h3>

5x + 6y = 1740

5(x + y = 314)

= 5x + 5y = 1570

5x + 6y = 1740

5x + 5y = 1570

the 5x is cancelled out

6y - 5y = 1740 - 1570

y = 170

now replace the value of y in the eqaution

5x + 6 (170) = 1740

5x =720

x = 144

hence they were 144 children and 170 adults

Seventh grade students were asked whether they participated in an after school activity. Complete the table below.
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Relative frequency of male nonparticipation is O.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure 1 is your partially filled frequency table.

1. Complete the table

(a) Total No

Total Yes + Total No = Total

     102     + Total No = 187

                   Total No = 187 - 102  

                                   = 85

 

(b) Female No

Male No  + Female  No = Total No

     40      + Female No =      85

                  Female No =       85 - 40

                                      =       45

(c) Female Yes

Female Yes + Female  No = Female Total

Female Yes +       45          =        95

Female Yes                         =        95 - 45

                                            =        50

(d) Male Yes

Male Yes + Female  Yes = Total Yes

Male Yes +         50          =     102

Male Yes                           =     102 - 50

                                          =     52

(e) Male Total

Male Yes + Male No = Male Total

     52      +       40     = Male Total

         Male Total        =       92

Figure 2 shows the completed table.

2. Frequency of Male No

There are 92 males, of whom 40 do not participate in an after-school activity.

The relative frequency of male nonparticipation is

40/92 = 0.43

Solve the equation on the interval [0, 2π). <br><br> cos x + 2 cos x sin x = 0
vekshin1
Take a common factor of cos(x)
\cos(x) (1 + 2 \sin(x) ) = 0
then by zero multplication rules
\cos(x)  = 0
x =  \frac{\pi}{2}  \: x =  \frac{3\pi}{2}
and when
1 + 2 \sin(x)  = 0
so
2 \sin(x ) =  - 1
\sin(x)  =  \frac{ - 1}{2}
so
x =   \frac{3\pi}{2}  -  \frac{\pi}{3}
and
x =  \frac{3\pi}{2}  +  \frac{\pi}{3}
