Answer:

Children 188

Adults. 115

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of children be x and adults be y

x + y = 303

x = 303 - y. .... .....(1)

1.75x + 4.80y = 881. ...........(2)

Substituting,

1.75(303-y) +4.80y = 881

530.25 -1.75y + 4.80y = 881

530.25 + 3.05y = 881

3.05y = 881 - 530.25

y = 350.75 / 3.05 = 115 = adults

Children = 303-115 = 188

Solving systems equations by elimination
pishuonlain [190]
I won't answer them all for you (don't want to cheat - need to learn something).
But for the first one given:

<span>-2x-9y=-25
-4x-9y=-23

you set up either x or y (which ever one you want to eliminate) so that one of them cancels.
So this one is easy - you just have to multiply an entire row by negative (doesn't matter which one) - so that the y's will be + and - 

Since they're both 9 and they're subracting NOW - you can eliminate the y value. Now add/subtract the x's. So it'd be -2 or 2 depending on how you eliminated y. Then add the number outside of the = sign. Now just solve for x. After that plug in whatever you got for x into both of the rows. Then find the y value.

Hopefully this wasn't confusing -- reply if it is and I will try to simplify. I can give you contact if you need help with the rest 

Good luck!</span>

What polynomial function has the zeros -3,1,5
natka813 [3]

Answer:

x³ - 3 x² - 13 x + 15 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you can create three factors like this:

(x+3)(x-1)(x-5)=0

That will each represent one zero.

Work it out and you get x³ - 3 x² - 13 x + 15 = 0

I’ll love u forever if u help me with this ASAP PLZZZ I don’t get it plzzz
laiz [17]

Answer:

v= 13

w= -32

Step-by-step explanation:

2v+6w=-36

5v+2w=1

2w= 1-5v

2v+ (3)(1-5v)= -36

2v+3-15v= -36

3-13v =-36

3--36= 13v

39= 13v

13 = V

5×13+2w=1

65+2w=1

1-65= 2w

-64=2w

-32=w
