Answer:
300 Adults 555 Children
Step-by-step explanation:
What we know:
Firstly, at 5pm there were 36 more Children (C) than Adults (A)
So.....C = A + 36
Secondly, at 12pm there were 5 x more Children and 4 x more Adults and the total was 855
So 4A + 5C = 855
——-
Now use ‘C = A + 36’ and get rid of all ‘C’ in the second equation.....
4A + 5C = 855
becomes......
4A + 5 (A + 36) = 855
Multiply the brackets (5 x A) and (5 x 36):
4A + 5A + 180 = 855
Take off 180 from both sides:
4A + 5A = 675
Therefore 9A = 675
Divide by 9:
A = 75
We know C is A + 36
C = 111
At 5 pm - A = 75 and C = 111
Therefore at 12:
There were 5 x C = 555
And 4 x A = 300
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of candies with Forest = 12
Candies containing coconut and chocolate both = Number common in coconut and the chocolate = 3
Candies which do not contain coconut but contain the chocolate = 6
Candies which contain the coconut but do not contain the chocolate = 1
Candies which neither contain the chocolate nor coconut = 2
From the given Venn diagram,
Contain coconut Do not contain coconut
Contain chocolate 3 6
Do not contain chocolate 1 2
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the value of y to the first given
3x+4(-x)=-1
3x+(-4x)=-1
-x=-1
divide both sides by -1
x=1
Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.
A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'
B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)
C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)
D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n
_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.
The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.
Answer: x=26
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Write the equation 2x-5+4x-1+30=180 because all triangle angles add up to 180°
2. Simplify the equation by combining like terms. Write the equation as 6x+24=180
3. Subtract 24 from both sides. Write the equation as 6x=156.
4. Divide 156/6 and get 26. That is your answer (x=26).
