Answer:
Points are (0,2) and (2,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. I took the test
2. I failed it
3. I looked at the answers
First, you add the two parts of the ratio together. 8+5=13. Then you do 390 divided by 13 which is 30. After this, you multiply 30 by each side to get the ratio to be equal. 30x8=240, and 30x5=150. This can now be put into the ratio 240:150. As you said it was in the ratio adults to children, it must stay in that order. The part of the ratio for children is 150.
<em>The answer to your question is 150. You can double-check your answer by adding up the two parts again. 240=150=390 so you can be assured that your answer is truly correct. Thank you for uploading this question. I hope my explanation was helpful enough for you
