-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given Information
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people = 165
Adult = $6
Child = $2
Total collected = $618

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assumptions 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of adults and y be the number of children

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equations
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of people
x + y = 165
Total amount collected 
6x + 2y = 618

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: The two equations are x + y = 165 and 6x + 2y = 618
-------------------------------------------------------------------------


The question is not asking for it but if you need to solve the equation to find the answer to x and y

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present the two equations and solve for x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 165          ------------------------- (eqn 1)
6x + 2y = 618      ------------------------- (eqn 2)

(eqn 1) : 
x + y = 165
x = 165 - y -------------------------  substitute into (eqn 2)

6(165 - y) + 2y = 618
990 - 6y + 2y = 618
4y = 990 - 618
4y = 372
y = 93 -------------------------  substitute into (eqn 1)

x + y = 165
x + 93 = 165
x = 165 - 93
x = 72 

x = 72 and y = 93

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ans: 72 adults and 93 children

Answer:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 1|165\\ 6 & 2|618\end{bmatrix}

Step-by-step explanation:

A total of 165 people attended the opening night of a school play.

Let there were adults = x  and number of children = y

So x + y = 165 ----------(1)

Now we know adults were charged $6 and children $2.

The total amount collected $618

so  6x + 2y = 618 ----------(2)

Now the augmented matrix for the system of equations will be \begin{bmatrix}1 & 1|165\\ 6 & 2|618\end{bmatrix}

Solve the equation -3 + 1/2n = 1/2 (-n + 14) in two different ways.
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 + 1/2n = 1/2 (-n + 14)

distribute

-3 + 1/2n = -1/2n + 7

                 -1/2n

cancel out -1/2n

-3 = n + 7

-10 = n

subtract 7

n =  -10

Can any kind soul help me please​
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

p-q= -4

p=q-4

x^2 + px + q=0

=> x^2 + (q-4)x + q = 0

d= b^2-4ac

=(q-4)^2 - 4(1)(q)

= q^2 + 16 -8q - 4q

=q^2 -12q+16

given that D=16

q^2 -12q+16 = 16

=> q^2 -12q = 0

=> q^2 = 12q

=> q = 12q/q

=> q= 12

Therefore the value of q is 12 and the value of p is q-4 = 12-4= 8

Hope you understood............
