188 children and 155 adults were admitted that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one children admission = $2.50

Cost of one adult admission = $5.80

Number of people entered = 343

Total admission fees collected = $1369

Let,

Number of children admission = x

Number of adult admission = y

According to given statement;

x+y=343     Eqn 1

2.50x+5.80y=1369     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2.50

2.50(x+y=343)\\2.50x+2.50y=857.50\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(2.50x+5.80y)-(2.50x+2.50y)=1369-857.50\\2.50x+5.80y-2.50x-2.50y=511.50\\3.30y=511.50

Dividing both sides by 3.30

\frac{3.30y}{3.30}=\frac{511.50}{3.30}\\y=155

Putting y=155 in Eqn 1

x+155=343\\x=343-155\\x=188

188 children and 155 adults were admitted that day.

What is the value of 6/1+i? 2-6i <br> 2+6i <br> 3-3i <br> 3+3i
kramer

Answer:

3 - 3i

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you meant:

     6

------------

   1 + i

To simplify this, that is, to "rationalize the denominator," multiply both numerator and denominator by the conjugate of 1 + i, which is 1 - I:

6(1 - i)

----------- = 3(1 - i)= 3 - 3i

  1 -(-1)

PLEASE HELP! Let f(x)= 6x+1 find f(a) + f(2)
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

6(a)+14

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find f(a) and f(2) separately, then add them together after

f(a) = 6(a)+1

f(2) = 6(2)+1 = 12+1 = 13

so f(a)+f(2) = 6(a)+1+13 = 6(a)+14
