Answer:
13 children and 9 adults if the total cost is $152.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x children and y adults
x + y = 22 (1)
5.5x + 9y = 125.5 (2)
y = 22 - x
5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 125.5
5.5x + 198 - 9x = 125.5
-3.5x = 125.5 - 198
-3.5x = -72.5
x = 20.7
y = 22 - x = 1.3
Which is not possible
If the total cost is $152.5
x + y = 22 (1)
5.5x + 9y = 152.5 (2)
y = 22 - x
5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 152.5
5.5x + 198 - 9x = 152.5
-3.5x = 152.5 - 198
-3.5x = -45.5
x = 13
y = 22 - 13 = 9
9:7
Ratios are always simplified so by dividing both 18 and 14 by 2 you get 9 and seven. Because yellow triangles is stated first the 9 is put before the 7 blue triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:
25(2x) + 25(3y)
25 · (2 · x) + 25 · (3 · y)
(25 · 2) · x + (25 · 3) · y <em>Associative property </em><em>(a · b) · c = a · (b · c)</em>
(25 · 2)x + (25 · 3)y
(2 · 25)x + (3 · 25)y <em>Commutative property</em><em> a · b = b · a</em>
<em>50x + 75y</em>
Answer:
either it's 1:3 or 1:6
Step-by-step explanation:
3 students went to the zoo, and 15 students went to the aquarium.
15 plus 3 is 18.
3/18 then reduces to 1/6
therefore it is:
1:6
(before, I got my answer deleted so, maybe it is 1:3, but I solved it and got 1:6)
