Answer:
212 children, and 265 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of children and adults, we can set up a systems of equations.
x= number of children
y= number of adults
Equation 1: Price
1.50x+2.25y=914.25
Equation 2: Total number of people
x+y=477
Now, let's solve the equation using substitution.
Rearrange the second equation to solve for one variable.
x+y=477
x=477-y
Now plug x equals into the first equation, and solve for y.
1.50x+2.25y=914.25
1.50(477-y)+2.25y=914.25
715.5-1.50y+2.25y=914.25
715.5+0.75y=914.25
0.75y=198.75
y=265
We just solved for the number of adults. Now let's plug y equals into the second equation to find the number of children.
x+y=477
x+265=477
x=212
Answer:
I am not sure how your teacher wanted you to estimate the answer but I solved it for you. Hopefully this helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
7x-y=7
x+2y=6
14x-2y=14
x+2y=6
add both equations
15x=20
x=20/15
x=4/3
x+2y=6
4/3+2y=6
2y=6-4/3
2y=18/3 -4/3
2y=14/3
divide both sides by 2
y= 14/3 divided by 2
y=14/3(1/2)
y=14/6
2y=
The 24 inch shelve is 2 feet ( 1 foot = 12 inches)
She bout 7 feet of shelves (5 + 2 = 7)
The total cost for the shelves was 7 x 1.25 = $8.75
She spend an additional 90 so her total spent was 90 + 8.75 = $98.75
Now subtract her total from 100 to find the amount of change:
100 - 98.75 = 1.25
The change was $1.25
The answer is 21g hope this helps :)
Since p varies directly with l,
p = kl (1)
Also, since w varies directly with l,
w = ml
or, l = w/m
Substitute in (1), we get,
p = k (w/m)
= (k/m) w
So, the price varies directly with weight.
