4c+5.6d=1360
Let
Children (c)=x
Adults (d)=284-x
4x+5.6 (284-x)=1360
Solve for x
4x+1590.4-5.6x=1360
4x-5.6x=1360-1590.4
-1.6x=-230.4
X=230.4÷1.6
X=144 children
284−144=140 adults
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
If we let p and t be the masses of the paper and textbook, respectively, the equations that would best represent the given in this item are:
(1) 20p + 9t = 44.4
(2) (20 + 5)p + (9 + 1)t = 51
The values of p and t from the equation are 0.6 and 3.6, respectively. Thus, each paperback weighs 0.6 pounds and each textbook weighs 3.6 pounds.
