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

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

k = 575

Step-by-step explanation:

let d be distance and h time.

Given d varies directly as h then the equation relating them is

d = kh ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition d = 2875, h = 5, then

2875 = 5k ( divide both sides by 5 )

k = 575

Solve the simultaneous equations 8 x + 5 y = 28 4 x + 5 y = 16
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

x=3, y=0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+5y=28

4x+5y=16

Subtract the second simultaneous equation from the first.

You are left with: 4x=12

12/4=3

x=3

Substitute this back into one of the equations.

8(3)+5y=28

8*3=24

28-24=4

4=5y

4/5=0.8

y=0.8

Find the missing side of each right triangle. Side c is the hypotenuse. Sides a and b are the legs. Leave your answers in simple
vredina [299]

Answer:

Side b = 10.2 m (1 d.p.)

Step-by-step explanation:

11² = 121

15² = 225

225 - 121 = 104

√104 = 10.2 (1 d.p.)  

Side b = 10.2m

(Full answer = 10.198039)

11² + 10.2² = 15²
