<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • 154 adults
  • 108 children
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let x represent the number of adults who swam at the pool. Then (262-x) is the number of children. Multiplying these numbers by the corresponding admission charge will give the associated receipts. We are given the total of receipts, so we can write the equation ...

... 2.00x +1.50(262-x) = 470.00

... 0.50x +393.00 = 470.00 . . . . . simplify

... 0.50x = 77.00 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 393

... 77.00/0.50 = x = 154 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

... (262-x) = 108 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .find the number of children admitted

the coordinates of the endpoints of AB are A (-8, -2) and B(16,6). Point P is on AB what are the coordinates of point P such tha
garri49 [273]
We have that
<span>A (-8, -2) and B(16,6)

step 1
find the distance AB in the x coordinates
dABx=(16-(-8))-----> 24 units

step 2
find coordinate x of P (Px)
Px=Ax+(3/5)*dABx------> Px=(-8)+(3/5)*24----> 6.4

step 3
F</span>ind the distance AB in the y coordinates
dABy=(6-(-2))-----> 8 units

step 4
find coordinate y of P (Py)
Py=Ay+(3/5)*dABy------> Py=(-2)+(3/5)*8----> 2.8

the coordinates of P are (6.4,2.8)

see the attached figure
