Seeing your method 1 answer, it seems like you forgot that 42 dollars is for 6 guests, not just 1. The unit rate is the rate per guest, and if we divide 42 by 6, we get 7dollars/1person as our unit rate. Since 7 dollars is our unit rate, we can multiply that by 72 to get 504 dollars, therefore making 500$ per night more cost effective.
Another way to do this is to do 42*72, as you did, but then dividing the final product by 6 due to that 42*72 is for 72*6=432 guests (we get the 6 since the unit rate is 7$ per person and 42/7=6). Doing that, we get 3024/6=504, which is still greater than 500
Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
So if 14% are over 65, and 320 residents are over 65, then we can say that 14% of the town is 320. Then, we can divide by 14 to find 1%, which is 22.857142857 Now we can multiply this by 100 to get 2285.7142857, which is the answer. To double check, you'd just find 14% of 2285.7142857 (multiply by 0.14) which is equal to 320. Because you can't have fractions of people, however, you'd have to round the answer up to 2286 people.
If that is too difficult to understand them hope this is easier
14% of the towns population is 320. Let P denote the towns population.
14/100 * P =320
14P/100 = 320
14P = 32000
divide both sides by 14
P = 2285.71
the towns population is 2286

Answer:
19 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the first number and y represents second number
x + y = 19
x - y = 17 add two equations up
2x = 36 divide both sides by 2
x = 19 and since the difference is 17 the other number is 2
