Answer: The oldest one is Vredfort Crater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Chicxulub was formed 6.5x10^7 years ago.

Vredfort was formed 2x10^9 years ago.

Sudbury basin was formed 1.8x10^9 years ago.

Acraman crater was formed 5.8x10^8 years ago.

We want to find the oldest, so we need to find the larger number of the 4 we have.

For this, we need to see at the exponents, the larger the exponent the larger the number.

We have two with a 9 in the exponent:

Vredfort and Sudbury.

Now we look at the number, Vredfort has 2x10^9 and Sudbury has 1.8x10^9.

Both have the same exponent, but the scalar of Vredfort is larger (2 is greater than 1.8) so we have that Vredfort is older.

sdas [7]

Answer:

340 children, 210 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \ a \ - adults, \ c - children;\\c + a = 450\\0.75c + 2a = 600|\cdot 4\\3c + 8a = 2400;\\\\c + a = 450|\cdot(-3)\\3c + 8a = 2400\\-3c -3a = -1350\\5a = 1050 => a = 210, c = 450 -210 = 340.

If you multiply a number by 3 and then subtract 5, you will get 40 what is the number
Paul [167]

Answer:

Number  = 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If you multiply a number by 3 and then subtract 5, you will get 40.

To find : what is the number.

Solution : We have given if you multiply a number by 3 and then subtract 5, you will get 40.

According to question :

Let the number =  x

Multiply is with 3 = 3x

Subtract 5 from it we get 40 .

3x -5 = 40

On adding both sides by 5

3x = 45 .

On dividing both sides by 3

x =  15.

Therefore, Number  = 15.
