Answer:

Number of children=57

Number of adults=54

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by forming simultaneous equations from the information provided.

Let the number of children be x and adults be y, then the the sum of the amount collected from both children and adults=3.25x+4y=401.25

The total number of people in attendance x+y=111

Let us solve these equations simultaneously.

3.25x+4y=401.25

x+y=111

Using substitution method.

y=111-x

3.25x+4(111-x)=401.25

3.25x+444-4x=401.25

-0.75cx=-42.75

x=57

Number of children=57

Adults=111-57

=54

Answer:

57 children

54 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the number of children admitted and call z the number of adults admitted.

Then we know that:

x + z = 111

We also know that:

3.25x + 4z = 401.25

We want to find the value of x and z. Then we solve the system of equations:

-Multiplay the first equation by -4 and add it to the second equation:

-4x - 4z = -444

3.25x + 4z = 401.25

----------------------------------

-0.75x = -42.75

x =\frac{-42.75}{-0.75}\\\\x=57

Now we substitute the value of x in the first equation and solve for the variable z

57 + z = 111

z = 111-57

z = 54

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

15.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Length of rectangle = 22 inches
  • Perimeter = 75 inches

To calculate : Width of the rectangle.

★ Perimeter of rectangle = 2( l + w )

→ 75 = 2(22 + w)

→ 75 = 44 + 2w

→ 75 – 44 = 2w

→ 31 = 2w

→ 31 ÷ 2 = w

→ <u>1</u><u>5</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>inches</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>Width</u>

Therefore, width of the rectangle is 15.5 inches.
