<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!

Add 5/9 to both sides. common denominator would be 72 so you would multiply the top and bottom of 3/8 by 9 (bc 9x8 is 72) to get 27/72. you would multiply top and bottom of 5/9 by 8 to get 40/72 and you would add 40+27 which equals 67 so x=67/72 i believe
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hello .....
note : the slope of the line (AB) is :
m = (YB -YA)/(XB - XA)
given : A(9,-4) and B (1,-5)
m= ((-5)-(-4))/(1-9)
m= 1/8
Answer:
<h2><u><em>
x = 1</em></u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
If 10 less than 5 times a number is two more than 3 times the number, then the number is
10 - 5x = 2 + 3x
10 - 2 - 5x - 3x = 0
8 - 8x = 0
x = 1
---------------
check
10 - 5 * 1 = 2 + 3 * 1
5 = 5
the answer is good
39x^3 = 13*3*x*x*x
-6x^2 = 2*3*x*x*-1
-3x = 3*x*-1
so in all these factorizations, 3*x is common. so 3x is the common factor.
by seperating the common factor,
3x(13x^2 - 2x-1)
will be the factorization.
xy + 5x - 5y - 25
=x (y+5) -5 (y+5)
=(x-5) (y+5)
hope I helped ya!!!
