<span>6s^2 = 294
Solve for s
Solve for s:
6 s^2 = 294
Divide both sides by 6:
s^2 = 49
Take the square root of both sides:
Answer: s = 7 m

Answer:
52 adults and 42 children attended the concert
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total attendees=94 people
Adults tickets=$2.5
Children tickets=$1.75
Total receipts=$203.5
Let adults=a
Children=c
a+c=94 (1)
2.5a + 1.75c=203.5 (2)
From (1)
a+c=94
a=94-c
Substitute a=94-c into (2)
2.5a + 1.75c=203.5
2.5(94-c) + 1.75c=203.5
235-2.5c+1.75c=203.5
-0.75c=203.5-235
-0.75c=-31.5
Divide both sides by -0.75
-0.75c/-0.75=-31.5/-0.75
c=42
Substitute c=42 into (1)
a+c=94
a+42=94
a=94-42
=52
a=52
Therefore,
52 adults and 42 children attended the concert
Answer:
i think you have to multiply the sides..
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: choice A. 40 liters
====================================
Explanation:
x = number of liters of the 50% alcohol solution
If we have x liters of 50% alcohol, then we have 0.50*x liters of pure alcohol. This is added to 0.90*40 = 36 liters of pure alcohol (from the 90% solution).
So far we have 0.50*x + 36. This expression represents the total amount of pure alcohol. We want a 70% solution, so we want 70% of the total 40+x meaning 0.50*x + 36 is to be set equal to 0.70*(40+x) and we solve for x as shown below
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40+x)
0.50*x + 36 = 0.70*(40)+0.70*(x)
0.50*x + 36 = 28+0.70*x
36 - 28 = 0.70*x - 0.50x
8 = 0.20x
0.20x = 8
x = 8/0.20
x = 40
So that is why the answer is choice A. 40 liters
