Adults = 9
Children = 2

Let x be the number of adults.
11-x is the number of children.

22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22x + 165 - 15x = 228
22x - 15x = 228 - 165
7x = 63
7x / 7 = 63 / 7
x = 9  number of adults.

11 - x = 11 - 9 = 2 number of children.

To check:

22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22(9) + 15(11-9) = 228
198 + 30 = 228
228 = 228

Consider the two triangles.
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

(A)Show that the ratios StartFraction U V Over X Y EndFraction , StartFraction W U Over Z X EndFraction , and StartFraction W V Over Z Y EndFraction are equivalent.

\dfrac{UW}{XZ}=\dfrac{WV}{ZY}=\dfrac{UV}{XY}

Step-by-step explanation:

In Triangles WUV and XZY:

\angle VUW$ and \angle YXZ$ are congruent. \\\angle U W V$ and \angle X Z Y$ are congruent.\\ \angle U V W$ and \angle Z Y X$ are congruent.

Therefore:

\triangle UWV \cong  \triangle XZY

To show that the triangles are similar by the SSS similarity theorem, we have:

\dfrac{UW}{XZ}=\dfrac{WV}{ZY}=\dfrac{UV}{XY}

As a check:

\dfrac{UW}{XZ}=\dfrac{40}{32}=1.25\\\\\dfrac{WV}{ZY}=\dfrac{60}{48}=1.25\\\\\dfrac{UV}{XY}=\dfrac{50}{40}=1.25

The correct option is A.
