Answer:

52 adults and 42 children attended the concert

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total attendees=94 people

Adults tickets=$2.5

Children tickets=$1.75

Total receipts=$203.5

Let adults=a

Children=c

a+c=94 (1)

2.5a + 1.75c=203.5 (2)

From (1)

a+c=94

a=94-c

Substitute a=94-c into (2)

2.5a + 1.75c=203.5

2.5(94-c) + 1.75c=203.5

235-2.5c+1.75c=203.5

-0.75c=203.5-235

-0.75c=-31.5

Divide both sides by -0.75

-0.75c/-0.75=-31.5/-0.75

c=42

Substitute c=42 into (1)

a+c=94

a+42=94

a=94-42

=52

a=52

Therefore,

52 adults and 42 children attended the concert

<h2>1)</h2>

(x - 4) {}^{2}  - 28 = 8 \\ (x - 4) {}^{2}  = 8 + 28 \\ (x - 4) {}^{2}  = 36

This must be true for some value of x, since we have a quantity squared yielding a positive number, and since the equation is of second degree,there must exist 2 real roots.

\sqrt{(x - 4) {}^{2} }  =  ± \sqrt{36}  \\x - 4 = ±6 \\ x _{1}- 4 = 6 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \:  \:  \:  x _{2}- 4 =  - 6 \\ x_{1} = 6 + 4 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: x_{2} =  - 6 + 4 \\ x_{1} = 10 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \:  \:  \: \:  \: x_{2} =  - 2

<h2>2)</h2>

Well he started off correct to the point of completing the square.

(x - 3)  {}^{2}  = 16 \\ x - 3 = ±4 \\  \: x_{1}  - 3 = 4 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: x_{2}  - 3 =  - 4 \\ x_{1}  = 7 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: x_{2}  =  - 1
