Equations which are never true:
5.1 Solve : -12 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
5.2 Solve : n+4 = 0
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation :
n = -4
One solution was found :
n = -4
Answer:
212 children, and 265 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of children and adults, we can set up a systems of equations.
x= number of children
y= number of adults
Equation 1: Price
1.50x+2.25y=914.25
Equation 2: Total number of people
x+y=477
Now, let's solve the equation using substitution.
Rearrange the second equation to solve for one variable.
x+y=477
x=477-y
Now plug x equals into the first equation, and solve for y.
1.50x+2.25y=914.25
1.50(477-y)+2.25y=914.25
715.5-1.50y+2.25y=914.25
715.5+0.75y=914.25
0.75y=198.75
y=265
We just solved for the number of adults. Now let's plug y equals into the second equation to find the number of children.
x+y=477
x+265=477
x=212
Answer:
x = 75 m
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a problem of similar triangles solved using proportions.
In similar triangles, corresponding side lengths are proportional.
Here the small and large triangles are similar because the have all three angles congruent.
By proportions, identifying corresponding sides,
x/45 = 50/30
solve for x
x = 45*(50/30) = 75 m
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 7 bananas out of 14 pieces of fruit the probability of selecting a banana is 7/14. 7/14 can be reduced to 1/2. 7 divided by 7 is 1, and 14 divided by 7 is 2 making the answer 1/2!
