If there are 40 children aged twelve and under and x of them are under three years old, 40 - x aged three twelve years old. From the 92 people that where taken by the company on whale watching trips, 52 are over twelve years old. The equation that best show the total cost, C is
(40 - x)(36) + (52)(48) = C
Rearranging the equation gives,
x = 40 - ((C - 2496)/ 36)
If you would like to know the Susan's pay for the week, you can calculate this using the following steps:
P = B * h
P ... the pay
B ... the base pay
h ... the number of hours worked
B = $6.35
h = 28 hours
P = B * h = $6.35 * 28 hours = $177.8
Susan's pay for the week would be $177.8.

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following quadratic equation given in the exercise above:
2x²−6x+1=0
2. The quadratic equation is:
x=[-b±√(b²-4ac)]/2a
Where:
a=2
b=-6
c=1
3. When you substitute these values into the quadratic equation, you obtain:
x=3/2-√(7)/2
x=3/2+√(7)/2
