X=adults
y=childern

x+y=90
24.50x+13.75y=1560

so
mutliply the first equation by -13.75 and add to second equaiton

-13.75x-13.75y=-1237.5
24.50x+13.75y=1560 +
10.75x+0y=323

10.75x=322.5
divide both sides by 10.75
x=30

x=30
sub back

x+y=90
30+y=90
minus 30 both sides
y=60


x=30
y=60

Sanjay graphs a quadratic function that has x-intercepts of –3 and 7. Which functions could he have graphed? Check all that appl
dem82 [27]
1,3,and 4 because for 1 and 3 if you factor it out you can get (x+3)(x-7) which if you solve it it creates them to be -3 and 7. The 4 one is already factored you just solve it and it also becomes -3 and 7. The - outside the parentheses is nothing.

write an expression that represents the number of square feet of wallpaper you will need if the height of the family room is x f
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
<h3>Given</h3>
  • room height is x feet
  • room length is 3x feet
  • room width is 3x feet
  • a door 3 ft wide by 7 ft tall
<h3>Find</h3>
  • The net area of the wall, excluding the door
<h3>Solution</h3>

The area of the wall, including the door, is the room perimeter multiplied by the height of the room. The room perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four walls.

... gross wall area = (3x +3x +3x +3x)·x = 12x²

The area of the door is the product of its height and width.

... door area = (7 t)×(3 ft) = 21 ft²

Then the net wall area, exclusive of the door is ...

... net wall area = gross wall area - door area

... net wall area = 12x² -21 . . . . square feet

Evaluate the function f(x)=2x-2 when x equals negative 1<br> A. -4<br> B. -3<br> C. 0<br> D. 4
Alona [7]
F(x)= -4. 
Just plug in -1 for your x in 2x-2 and solve like a normal equation. Think of f(x) a your y because that's basically what it is. If it helps, the equation is basically:
y=2x-2 so you would just solve for y by plugging in -1 into x.

Need help ASAP!! Write an informal proof to show triangles ABC and DEF are similar.
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Δ ABC and Δ DEF are similar because their corresponding sides are proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional which means the corresponding sides have equal ratios

In the two triangles ABC and DEF

∵ AB = 4 units

∵ DE = 2 units

∴ \frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{4}{2}=2

∵ BC = 6 units

∵ EF = 3 units

∴ \frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{6}{3}=2

∵ CA = 2 units

∵ FD = 1 units

∴ \frac{CA}{FD}=\frac{2}{1}=2

∴ \frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{CA}{FD}=2

∵ All the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal

∴ The corresponding sides of the two triangles are proportional

∴ Δ ABC is similar to Δ DEF
