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

The pool is located at (0,0) to get to your house from the pool you walk three blocks west and one block north what ordered pair
ira [324]

Answer:

(-3, 1) quadrant II (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

An image of the coordinate plane is show.  The quadrants start at the top right and move around in the counter-clockwise direction.  The x-axis is horizontal (side to side) and y-axis is vertical (up and down).  Starting at the origin of the coordinate plane (0, 0) and going three blocks west (left) would put you at -3 on the x-axis.  If you then proceed to go north (up) +1, you would now be at point (-3, 1) which is a (-x, +y)  or in quadrant II.
