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.

Ainsley made a $75 deposit to her savings account.what integer represents the deposit?
Dima020 [189]

In this case, Ainsley is <em>adding </em>money to her savings, so the $75 deposit could be represented as the <em>positive </em>integer 75.

The opposite, of course, would be if Ainsley <em>withdrew </em>that money from her savings. In that case, we'd be subtracting money from the account, so we could use the <em>negative </em>integer -75 to represent that scenario.

Use the distance formula to find the length of the line with endpoints at (1,3) and (3,1)?
gulaghasi [49]
Let's plug the coordinate point values into the equation: 
\sqrt{(3-1)^{2} +(1-3)^{2} }
(1,3) is x₁ and (3,1) is x₂
Begin to simplify within the parenthesis: 
\sqrt{2^{2}+(-2)^{2}  }
Square the two numbers: 
\sqrt{4 + 4} 
Add the two to get: 
\sqrt{8} 
Since 8 is not a square number, this is as far as we can simplify this. Hope this helps!
