x-\ children\\
y-\ adults\\\\ \left \{ {{x+y=2200} \atop {1,5x+4y=5050}} \right. \\\\x=2200-y\\\\Substitution:\\
1,5(2200-y)+4y=5050\\
3300-1,5y+4y=5050\ \ \ | subtract\ 3300\\\
2,5y=1750\ \ \ | divide\ by\ 2,5\\\\y=700\\\\
There\ were\ 700\ adults \ and\ 1500\ children.

The lengths of the diagonals of a rhombus are 4x and 8x. What algebraic expression gives the perimeter of the rhombus?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Approximately 17.88x or 8x\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagorean formula. In a rhombus the diagonals bisect each other and they are perpendicular, so you could have a right triangle with legs of 2x and 4x, the hypoteneuse would then be \sqrt{(2x)^{2} +(4x)^{2} }= \sqrt{4x^{2} +16x^{2}} which is approximately 4.47x. In a rhombus all 4 sides are the same, so multiply that by 4 and you get the perimeter. 4(4.47x) = 17.88x  or if you simplify the radical instead it's 8x\sqrt{5}

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below (5x+1)^2=7?<br><br> Check all that apply.
stiv31 [10]
(5x+1)² = 7; expand: 25x² + 10x +1 = 7 or 25x² + 10x -6 = 0

Solve this quadratic for x:

x = [-b + √(b² - 4ac)]/2a and x = [-b - √(b² - 4ac)]/2a
Plug the values and you'll find :
x = (- √7 - 1)/5 (answer C)
x = (+√7 -1)/5  (answer E)
