Answer:

  • 207.5 adult
  • 52.5 children

Step-by-step explanation:

If "a" represents the number of adult smoothies sold, then 260-a is the number of smoothies sold to children. The total revenue is ...

  3a +1(260-a) = 675

  2a +260 = 675 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  a + 130 = 337.5 . . . . . . divide by 2

  a = 207.5 . . . . . . . . smoothies sold to adults

  260-a = 52.5 . . . . . smoothies sold to children

_____

For the given numbers, this is the way it works out. The "half" values suggest there is a typo somewhere, possibly in the curriculum material. Talk to your teacher about this one.

Write the phrase as an expression. Then evaluate when y=20.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Q=\frac{40}{y-16}

Q=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the quotient be represented by 'Q'.

Given:

The difference of a number 'y' and 16 is y-16

Quotient is the answer that we get on dividing two terms. Here, the first term is 40 and the second term is y-16. So, we divide both these terms to get an expression for 'Q'.

The quotient of 40 and y-16 is given as:

Q=\frac{40}{y-16}

Now, we need to find the quotient when y=20. Plug in 20 for 'y' in the above expression and evaluate the quotient 'Q'. This gives,

Q=\frac{40}{20-16}\\Q=\frac{40}{4}=10

Therefore, the quotient is 10, when the value of 'y' is 20.

o-na [289]

Answer:

Cost for 68 words = 148 naira

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of first ten words = 32 naira

Cost of additional words = 2 naira per word

Let,

x be the number of additional words.

y be the total cost

y = 2x + 32

We have to find the cost for 68 words.

The cost of first 10 words will be 32 naira.

Additional words = 68 - 10 = 58 words

Putting x = 58 in the equation

y = 2(58) + 32

y = 116 + 32

y = 148

Hence,

Cost for 68 words = 148 naira
