It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to answer this question, but anyway, here is the answer.
Based on the given scenario above, the expression would be this: 
<span> a + c = 2904
12a + 6.5c = 27,126
</span>Wherein a is for adult, and c is for children. 
Here is the solution:
a + c = 2904
a = 2904 - c
Next,
12 (2904-c) + 6.5c = 27,126
34,848 - 12c + 6.5c = 27,126
-5.5c = 27,126 - 34, 848
-5.5c = - 7,722 (divide both sides by -5.5)
c = 1,404

Now going back to the first expression:
a + c = 2904
a + 1,404 = 2904
a = 2904 - 1,404
a = 1500

Hope this answer helps.

Sushil is 6 years older than Brian. Caroline is 5 years younger than Brian. If the total of their ages is 64, how old is the you
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

16 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the letters s, b, and c for Sushil, Brian, and Caroline's ages. Sushil is the oldest, followed by Brian, and then Caroline, the youngest. From the problem description, we can set up three equations:

s = b + 6 <em>(Sushil is 6 years older than Brian)</em>

c = b - 5 <em>(Caroline is 5 years younger than Brian)</em>

s + b + c = 64 <em>(The total of their ages is 64)</em>

Since s and c are already in terms of b, we can substitute them into the last equation and solve to find Brian's age:

(b + 6) + b + (b - 5) = 64

3b + 1 = 64

3b = 63

b = 21

Now that we know Brian's age, we can simply subtract 5 to find Caroline's:

c = b - 5 = 21 - 5 = 16 years old.

What initial investment must be made to accumulate $60000 in 17 years if the money is invested in a mutual fund that pays 12% an
mars1129 [50]

$7881.18

Step-by-step explanation:

   Let the initial Investment be P_{0}. The Interest is compounded on a monthly basis at 12% annual interest rate. After 17 years, the Investment amounts to $60,000.

   As the annual interest rate is 12%, the monthly interest rate is 1%.

Since this is a compound interest problem, the total amount can be modeled as follows: P(t)=P_{0}(1+\frac{i}{100})^{t}

Here i is the interest rate, i.e 1, and t is the number of time periods, i.e 17\textrm{ years x }12\frac{\textrm{months}}{\textrm{year}}= 204\textrm{ months}

60,000=P_{0}\textrm{ x }(\frac{101}{100})^{204}

P_{0}=7881.18

∴ Initial Investment = $7881.18
