Answer:

The answer to your question is:

1200 children and 800 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Children = $ 25   = c

Adults = $ 50    = a

Attendance = 2000

Revenue = $70000

# of children and adults.

                                            c  +   a   = 2000          (I)

                                       25c + 50a  = 70000        (II)

Multiply I by -25

                                    -25 c  - 25 a = -50000

                                     25c   + 50a =   70000

                                                 25a = 20000

                                                     a = 800

                                         c + 800 = 2000

                                         c = 2000 - 800

                                         c = 1200

Why 9 is a square number plot
konstantin123 [22]
Informally: When you multiply a whole number times itself, the resulting product is called a square number, or a perfect square or simply "a square." So 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144, and so on, are all square numbers
