Answer:

<u>188 children</u> and <u>145 adults</u> were admitted in the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The admission fee at an amusement park is $1.50 for children and $4 for adults.

Total $862 collected on a certain day when 333 people enter the park.

Now, to find the children and adults admitted in the park.

<u><em>Let the number of children admitted be </em></u>x.<u><em /></u>

<u><em>And the the number of adults admitted be </em></u>y.<u><em /></u>

So, the total people enter the park:

x+y=333\\\\x=333-y\ \ \ ...(1)

Thus, the total amount collected of the admission fee:

1.50(x)+4(y)=862\\\\

Substituting the value of x from equation (1):

1.50(333-y)+4(y)=862\\\\499.50-1.50y+4y=862\\\\499.50+2.50y=862\\\\Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by\ 499.50\ we\ get:\\\\2.50y=362.50\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 2.50\ we\ get:\\\\y=145.

<u><em>Thus, the number of adults = 145.</em></u>

Now, to get the number of children by substituting the value of y in equation (1) we get:

x=333-y\\\\x=333-145\\\\x=188.

<u><em>Hence, the number of children = 188.</em></u>

Therefore, 188 children and 145 adults were admitted in the park.

Answer:

$30341.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it says simple interest, use the formula I = Prt.

(I is interest, r is the % rate as a decimal, t is the time)

So, you have to solve the equation,

1755 = P (0.065)(9)

Since 0.065 x 9 = 0.585, the equation can be simplified to

1755 = 0.585P

Then, to get P, you divide both sides by 0.585

P = 1755/0.585 = $30341.88

Answer:

y=-x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope can be represented as rise over run (change y-values over change in x-values). Since the y-value is changing by -2 every time the x-value is changing by 2, the slope of the line must be \frac{-2}{2}=-1.

In slope-intercept form y=mx+b, m represents the slope of the line, b represents the y-intercept, and (x, y) represent the coordinates of any point the line passes through.

To find b, substitute m=-1 and any point the line passes through.

Using (1, 0) from the table:

0=-1(1)+b,\\0=-1+b,\\b=1

Thus, the equation of this line is \boxed{y=-x+1}
