X=children y=adults
5800=1.5x+4y
2700=x+y

First, solve the second equation for y
y=2700-x
Second, take the equasion that was just solved a substitute it in for y in the first equation
5800=1.5x+4(2700-x)
diatribute the 4 within the parenthesis
5800=1.5x+10800-4x
combine like terms
5800=-2.5x+10800
subtract 10800
-5000=-2.5x
divide by -2.5
2000=x

Take the value for x and place it in the second equation(beginning)
2700=x+y
2700=2000+y
subtract 2000
700=y

There were 2000 children and 700 adults admitted.

Brad has two lengths of copper pipe to fit together one has a length of 2 5/12 feet and the other has a length of 3 7 12 ft how
leva [86]
To find the total length of the two copper pipes, we need to add them together.

2 5/12 + 3 7/12 = 5 12/12

Since 12/12 = 1 or a whole, we can simplify this further.

5 12/12 = 6

Hope this helps!

kiruha [24]
The value of x would be 6.5 because if you add 1 to 6.5 you get 7.5 and 7.5 multiplied by 4 is 30
