To solve, you would need to make two equations and substitute one in for the other. Let a = # of adults, and c = # of children

5a + 2c = 1,220
a + c = 295

a + c = 295
-c         -c
a = 295 - c

5(295 - c) + 2c = 1,220
1,475 - 5c + 2c = 1,220
1,475 - 3c = 1,220

1,475 - 3c = 1,220
-1,475           -1,475
-3c = -255

-3c/-3 = -255/-3
c = 85

a + c = 295
a + 85 = 295
     -85    -85
a = 210

210 adults attended the dance recital

Hope this helps!

What is the length of a 50-inch TV that has a width of 27 inches?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

42.08inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

SIze of TV= 50 inch

Width= 27inches

Length= ??

Applying Pythagoras theorem

z^2= x^2+y^2

50^2=  x^2+27^2

square root both sides

50^2= x^2+27^2

2500= x^2+ 729

2500-729=x^2

1771=x^2

x= √1771

x= 42.08

Hence the lenght is 42.08inches

Hello there. May somebody help me simplify this problem? It would be very kind.
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

27 / (4x⁶y⁸)

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{4(3x^{2}y^{4})^{3}}{(2x^{3}y^{5})^{4}}

When raised to a power, multiply the exponents.

\frac{4(3^{3}x^{6}y^{12})}{2^{4}x^{12}y^{20}} \\\\\frac{2^{2}3^{3}x^{6}y^{12}}{2^{4}x^{12}y^{20}}

When dividing, subtract the exponents.

2^{2-4}3^{3}x^{6-12}y^{12-20}\\2^{-2}3^{3}x^{-6}y^{-8}

Move negative exponents to the denominator.

\frac{3^{3}}{2^{2}x^{6}y^{8}}\\\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}

Pls help 20 points!!
sesenic [268]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf  18 cm\²}

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure consists of 2 rectangles.

<u>Rectangle 1 Area:</u>

Length = 5 cm

Width = 2 cm

Area = Length * Width

A = 5 * 2

A = 10 cm²

<u>Rectangle 2 Area:</u>

Length = 4 cm

Width = 2 cm

Area = 2 * 4

A = 8 cm²

<u>Area of the whole figure:</u>

= Rectangle 1 + Rectangle 2

= 10 + 8

= 18 cm²

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
