Answer:

13 children and 9 adults if the total cost is $152.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x children and y adults

x + y = 22 (1)

5.5x + 9y = 125.5 (2)

y = 22 - x

5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 125.5

5.5x + 198 - 9x = 125.5

-3.5x = 125.5 - 198

-3.5x = -72.5

x = 20.7

y = 22 - x = 1.3

Which is not possible

If the total cost is $152.5

x + y = 22 (1)

5.5x + 9y = 152.5 (2)

y = 22 - x

5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 152.5

5.5x + 198 - 9x = 152.5

-3.5x = 152.5 - 198

-3.5x = -45.5

x = 13

y = 22 - 13 = 9

Can someone help me with this i have been trying for hours and i actually got the wrong answer so can you help me understand by
kap26 [50]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that FGH is a triangle, which means that...

Angle F + Angle G + Angle H = 180

Start by substituting the given angle measurements into the equation:

4x+2+13x-7+3x+5=180

Combine like terms

20x=180

Divide both sides by 20 to isolate x

x=9

Plug 9 back in for x to solve for each angle

Angle F = 4(9)+2=36+2=38

Angle G = 13(9)-7=117-7=110

Angle H = 3(9)+5=27+5=32

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

 43.16 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

After each hour, the amount remaining is 100% - 12% = 0.88 times the amount present at the beginning of the hour. Then after 8 hours, the amount remaining will be the initial amount multiplied by 0.88 eight times, or ...

  (120 mg)·(0.88^8) ≈ 43.1561 mg ≈ 43.16 mg

_____

Of course, an exponent is used to signify repeated multiplication. You can actually do the multiplication if you like, but most scientific and graphing calculators handle exponentiation easily.
