Total= 2838
x= # of children
3x+5= # of women
4(3x+5)-3= # of men

x + (3x+5) + 4(3x+5)-3= 2838
multiply 4 by 3x+5 first

x + (3x+5) + (4*3x) + (4*5) - 3= 2838
combine like terms

4x + 5 + 12x + 20 - 3= 2838
16x + 22= 2838
subtract 22 from both sides

16x= 2816
divide both sides by 16

x= 176

ANSWER:
# Children= x= 176
# Women= 3x+5= 3(176)+5= 533
# Men= 4(3x+5)-3=4(3(176)+5)-3= 2129

CHECK:
#children + #women + #men= 2838
176 + 533 + 2129= 2838
2838= 2838

Hope this helps! :)

A small town's phone numbers either begin 373 or 377. How many phone numbers are available?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>There are 20,000 number available.</em></u>

Explanation:

To determine <em>how many phone numbers are available </em>you need to know how many digits the number contains.

I will assume the same number of digits for other similar questions, i.e. 7.

With 7 digits, the numbers that begin with 373 or 377 can be of the form 373XXXX or 377XXXX.

Where each X can be any digit 0 - 9. Then, there are 10 different options for each X.

Thus, there are 10×10×10×10 = 10,000 different numbers starting with 373 and other 10,000 different numbers starting with 377.

In total, there are 20,000 numbers available.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,-4) and has a slope of -3/5
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

y= -3/5x - 7 (assuming slope-intercept form)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we see the slope. The basic template for a slope-intercept question is

y=mx + b

So, we put in -3/5 as "m" in this case, as it is the slope to get y= -3/5x +b

To find b, we can just try out the point that the equation gave us.

-3/5 * -5 = 3

Then, to get to -4 from 3, we need to subtract 7.

Then, we get our whole slope-intercept equation. y=-3/5x - 7
