We first calculate Pablo's height .
4 = 100%
x = 1% (Where x is 1% of Sandra's height.)
cross multiplying the equation, we get:
100x = 4 → x = 4/100 → x = 0.04
If 1% = 0.04, then 10% will be 0.04 × 10 = 0.4
Pablo's height is 4 + 0.4 = 4.4 feet.
Now we repeat the above steps to get Michal's height from Pablo's height
4.4 = 100%
x = 1% so:
100x = 4.4 → x = 4.4/ 100 → x = 0.044
If 1% = 0.044, then 8% will be 0.044 × 8 = 0.35
Michael's height is 4.4 + 0.35 = 4.75 feet.
<u>Note: The only way to solve this problem is by adjusting the fees to $3.50 and $7.50.</u>
Answer:
<em>1300 children attended the basketball game</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
System of Equations
Let's call:
x = number of children attending the basketball game
y = number of adults attending the basketball game
On a certain night, 1500 people enter the game, thus:
x + y = 1500 [1]
Since each admission fee for children cost $3.50 and $7.50 for adults and it was collected $6050, thus:
3.50x + 7.50y = 6050 [2]
From [1]:
y = 1500 - x
Substituting in [2]:
3.50x + 7.50(1500 - x) = 6050
Operating:
3.50x + 11250 - 7.50 = 6050
-4x = 6050 - 11250
Solving:
x = 1300
1300 children attended the basketball game
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
A. Yes, because both points are equidistant from the center of the circle.
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
The point (0, 5) is 5 units from the point (0, 0).
The point (0, -5) is 5 units from the point (0, 0).
The given points are equidistant from the circle center at (0, 0), so both will lie on the circle—along with any other points that are 5 units from (0, 0).

8-2x=-8x+14
-2x=-8x+6
