X= adults
y=children



x+y=20
x=20-y


18x+12y=324
18(20-y)+12y=324
360-18y+12y=324
-6y=324-360
-6y=-36
y=-36/-6
y=6

x=20-y
x=20-6
x=14




14 adults and 6 children

Find the roots of the equation f(x) = x3 - 0.2589x2 + 0.02262x -0.001122 = 0
motikmotik

Answer:

x1 = 0.16203454

x2= 0.04843273+0.06766624j

x3= 0.04843273-0.06766624j

Step-by-step explanation:

The better way to obtain roots of a polynomial when is not easy to analytically factorize is to use software as Matlab or Python. Use the following code in Python

import numpy as np

pol=np.array([1,-0.2589, 0.02262,-0.001122])

roots=np.roots(pol)

print(roots)
