<span>The answer to this question would be: A. the number of adults
</span>
In this question, there are 4 times as many students as adults going on the trip. If we put it into a function where s= student and a=adult, then we could get one equation:<span>
1. s=4a
</span><span>
Each student ticket cost $2 and each adult ticket cost $4. The total cost of the trip is $144. We also can get one equation for this
2. 2s+ 4a= 144
If you put the first equation into the second, you will get:
</span>2s+4a= 144
2(4a)+4a= 144
The function is already similar with <span>2(4x)+4x but it uses a instead of x. Then x = a = number of adult</span>
<em>Substitute x = 2 as we get</em>
<em>f(2) = -4(2)+4 = -8+4 = -4</em>
<em>Therefore, f(2) = -4</em>
Answer:
The length is 28 and the width is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we can make the width as x.
Since the length is 5 less than 3 times the width, it's going to be 3x - 5
So now we've got the length and width, just need to find the perimeter, which is all the sides added up together. They already gave us the perimeter, so we just have to solve the equation:
2(3x - 5) + 2x = 78
6x - 10 + 2x = 78
8x - 10 = 78
8x = 88
x = 11
x = 11, but remember, x is the width, not the length. Since we already found what x is, we just have to plug it into the equation of:
3x - 5
3 × 11 - 5
33 - 5 = 28
Answer: Length = 28 (don't forget to add the unit if there is one)
To find population density, it is population / area.
The population is 6688, divided by the area of 16.
6688/16 = 418
So the population density is 418 people per sq mile.
