Answer:

70 adults

42 children

Step-by-step explanation:

A + C = 112

A = 112 - C

2.25A + 1.75C = 231

2.25(112 - C) + 1.75C = 231

252 - 2.25C + 1.75C = 231

21 = 0.5C

C = 42

A = 112 - C

A = 112 - 42

A = 70

Answer:

42 child and 70 adult

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adult tickets

c = number of child tickets

a+c = 112

2.25a + 1.75c = 231

Solve the first equation for a

a = 112-c

Substitute this into the second equation

2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231

Distribute

252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231

Combine like terms

252 -.5c = 231

Subtract 252 from each side

252-252 -.5c = 231-252

-.5c = -21

Divide each side by -.5

-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5

c = 42

Now can find a

a = 112-c

a = 112-42

a = 70

Homer is giving some cookies to each of
Stells [14]

Answer:

7 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 brothers

First , Second, Third

Let the total number cookies be represented by A

1 cookie = 1

Working backwards, we start from the third brother

If we work backwards

It means he gave everything away

We start from the youngest

He was given 1/2 of what was left and 1/2 a cookie

This means,

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

The second brother

He got half of what is left and 1/2 a cookies

Half of what is left from brother

= What the youngest brother got + 1/2 + 1/2 a cookie

= 1 + 1/2 + 1/2

= 1.5 + 1/2

= 2 cookies

For the first brother

He got 1/2 of the cookies + 1/2 cookie

= 1.5 × 2 + 1/2 + 1/2 cookies

= 3 1/2 + 1/2

= 4 cookies

The first brother got 4 cookies

The second brother got 2 cookies

The third broth got 1 cookies

The grades on a language midterm at Oak Academy are roughly symmetric with = 67 and 0 = 2.5. Ishaan scored 70 on the exam. Find
rodikova [14]

Answer:  1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denotes the grades on a  language midterm at Oak Academy.

As per given ,

X follows normal distribution ( because it has symmetric graph)

\mu=67,\ \ \ \ \sigma= 2.5

Formula for z : z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

For X = 70, we have

z=\dfrac{70-67}{2.5}=\dfrac{3}{2.5}=1.2

Hence, the z-score for Ishaan's exam grade = 1.2
