X + y = 47
x = 2y + 2

2y + 2 + y = 47
3y + 2 = 47
3y = 47 - 2
3y = 45
y = 45/3
y = 15

x = 2y + 2
x = 2(15) + 2
x = 30 + 2
x = 32

ur numbers are 15 and 32

What is the answer to 21=(x+3)2
IceJOKER [234]
First, distribute 2 to the (x+3) to get:
21 = 2x+6
subtract 6 from both sides to get:
15 = 2x
Finally, we divide both sides by 2 to simplify x to:
x = 7.5 (OR) x = 7  \frac{1}{2}
(Just so you know, if you pick a brainliest answer, both you and the person who got the brainliest answer get some points.

The admission fee at an amusement park is $2.00 for children and $6.80 for adults. On a certain day, 388 people entered the park
san4es73 [151]

Answer: 188 children and 200 adults were admitted

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children that were admitted.

Let y represent the number of adults that were admitted.

On a certain day, 388 people entered the park. It means that

x + y = 388

The admission fee at the amusement park is $2.00 for children and $6.80 for adults. The admission fees collected on that day totaled $1736. It means that

2x + 6.8y = 1736- - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 388 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 6.8y = 1736

2(388 - y) + 6.8y = 1736

776 - 2y + 6.8y = 1736

- 2y + 6.8y = 1736 - 776

4.8y = 960

y = 960/4.8

y = 200

x = 388 - y = 388 - 200

x = 188
