Answer: 188 children and 200 adults were admitted

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children that were admitted.

Let y represent the number of adults that were admitted.

On a certain day, 388 people entered the park. It means that

x + y = 388

The admission fee at the amusement park is $2.00 for children and $6.80 for adults. The admission fees collected on that day totaled $1736. It means that

2x + 6.8y = 1736- - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 388 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 6.8y = 1736

2(388 - y) + 6.8y = 1736

776 - 2y + 6.8y = 1736

- 2y + 6.8y = 1736 - 776

4.8y = 960

y = 960/4.8

y = 200

x = 388 - y = 388 - 200

x = 188

A map of a park says its scale is 1 to 100. What does that mean?
Alex777 [14]

A scale is a term that refers to the <em>representative fraction</em> for comparing the <u>original</u> length and <u>image</u> length of a given <u>object</u>. It means implies that every 1 unit on the <u>drawing</u> is equal to <u>100</u> units on the <u>park</u>.

A <em>scale</em> is a term that can be referred to as the <em>representative fraction</em> that compares the <u>original</u> length and <u>image</u> length of a given <em>object</em>. Types of <u>scale</u> include enlarged scale, reduced scale, and real scale.

  • Enlarged scale is a <u>scale</u> that is used when the <u>size</u> of a given <em>object</em> is to be <em>increased</em>.
  • <em>Reduced scale</em> is used when the <u>size</u> of a given <u>object</u> is to be <em>decreased</em>.
  • <u>Real scale</u> implies the <em>exact size</em> of a given <u>object</u>.

<u>Scale</u> can be expressed as;

Scale = \frac{length on drawing}{original length}

Thus a <em>scale</em> has no unit.

Therefore, the given question <em>implies</em> that every 1 unit on the <u>drawing</u> is equal to 100 units on the <u>original</u> park. Thus it is a <em>reduced scale</em>.

78/14 Between which two consecutive whole numbers does this value lie? Enter your numbers in the box
Zigmanuir [339]

Given number is 78/14.

We have to find two whole numbers between which given number 78/14 lies.

Let's convert that into mixed fraction.

To do that we divide 78 by 14 to find the quotient.

We see that 14 goes 5 times into 78 and leaves remainder of 8.

So we can rewrite 78/14 as 5\frac{8}{14}.

5\frac{8}{14} means little more than 5 but less than 6.

So required two whole numbers are 5 and 6.

Use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. Round to the nearest square unit.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

24.25 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

s = (a + b + c)/2 = (8 + 13 + 7)/2 = 14 in

s - a = 6, s - b = 1, s - c = 7

so

the area = \sqrt{14\times6\times1\times7}=24.25
