4c+5.6d=1360
Let
Children (c)=x
Adults (d)=284-x
4x+5.6 (284-x)=1360
Solve for x
4x+1590.4-5.6x=1360
4x-5.6x=1360-1590.4
-1.6x=-230.4
X=230.4÷1.6
X=144 children
284−144=140 adults

The value of x<em> </em>in the polynomial fraction 3/((x-4)•(x-7)) + 6/((x-7)•(x-13)) + 15/((x-13)•(x-28)) - 1/(x-28) = -1/20 is <em>x </em>= 24
<h3>How can the polynomial with fractions be simplified to find<em> </em><em>x</em>?</h3>
The given equation is presented as follows;

Factoring the common denominator, we have;

Simplifying the numerator of the right hand side using a graphing calculator, we get;
By expanding and collecting, the terms of the numerator gives;
-(x³ - 48•x + 651•x - 2548)
Given that the terms of the numerator have several factors in common, we get;
-(x³ - 48•x + 651•x - 2548) = -(x-7)•(x-28)•(x-13)
Which gives;

Which gives;

x - 4 = 20
Therefore;

Answers:
1. There are rivets on the belts.
2. Extra information given in the problem:
a. He has 9 buckles.
b. He has 22 rivets left over.
Solution:
1. Total rivets on the belts=(12 rivets/belt)(4 belts)+(15 rivets/belt)(2 belts)
Total rivets on the belts=48 rivets+30 rivets
Total rivets on the belts=78 rivets
2. The extra information given in the problem is the information that we didn't use to solve it. In this case:
a. He has 9 buckles.
b. He has 22 rivets left over.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the distance between two points i.e. (−5,−1) and (−3,−8).
It can be calculated using distance formula as follows :

We have, x₁ = -5, x₂ = -3, y₁ = -1 and y₂ = -8
Put all the values,

So, the distance between the points is equal to
