The answer is 19.73 because 19 minus 1.67 is 17.33 and 17.33 plus 2.4 is 19.73
X= adults
y=children
x+y=20
x=20-y
18x+12y=324
18(20-y)+12y=324
360-18y+12y=324
-6y=324-360
-6y=-36
y=-36/-6
y=6
x=20-y
x=20-6
x=14
14 adults and 6 children
Answer:
1.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 miles
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, the person will walk 60/10 = 6 times as much in 1 hour. If that person can walk 1/4 mile in 10 minutes, she will walk (1/4)*6 = 1.5 miles in 1 hour.
X can not = 0 because if I did your answer would not be a fraction it would be 0
