Answer:

Between 150 and 450

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to find the number by resolving  a system of linear equations.

First we write the system equations :

C+S+A=750

Where C : children, S : students and A : adults

The equation represents the ''full attendance''

The second equation :

3C+5S+7A=3450

This equation represents the totaled receipts.

The system :

C+S+A=750\\3C+5S+7A=3450

has the following associated matrix :

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&1&750\\3&5&7&3450\end{array}\right]

By performing elementary matrix operations we find that the matrix is equivalent to

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&-1&150\\0&1&2&600\\\end{array}\right]

The new system :

C-A=150\\S+2A=600

Working with the equations :

C = 150 + A\\S = 600-2A

Our solution vector is :

\left[\begin{array}{c}C&S&A\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}150+A&600-2A&A\end{array}\right]

For example :

If 0 adults attended ⇒ A = 0

C = 150 + 0 \\C = 150\\S = 600 - 2A\\S = 600

This verify the totaled receipts equation :

150($3)+600($5) = $ 3450

A ≥ 0 ⇒ If A = 0 ⇒ C = 150

C = 150 is the minimum children attendance

From the equation :

S = 600 -2A

S ≥0

600 - 2A ≥ 0

600 ≥ 2A

300≥ A

A is restricted to the interval [ 0, 300]

When A = 0 ⇒ C = 150

When A = 300 ⇒C = 150 + A = 150 + 300 = 450

Children ∈ [ 150,450]

With C being an integer number (including 0)

Also S and A are integer numbers (including 0)

The formula for the volume of a sphere is v=4/3r3 what is the formula solved for r?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

(3 V/ 4 pi) ^(1/3) =  r

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

We want to solve for r

Multiply each side by 3/4

3/4 V = 4/3*3/4 pi r^3

3/4 V = pi r^3

Divide each side by pi

3/4 V/ pi = pi/pi r^3

3 V/ 4 pi =  r^3

Take the cube root of each side

(3 V/ 4 pi) ^(1/3) = ( r^3) ^1/3

(3 V/ 4 pi) ^(1/3) =  r
