The fastest method would be to add 8+5 and then divide 390 by it. And then that would be your base unit which you multiply to 8 and 5 to get your answers

8+5=13
390/13
30
30x8=240 adults
30x5=150 children

Victoria correctly determined the area of this parallelogram by adding the areas of the rectangle and triangles.
adoni [48]

Answer:

56 m²

16 m²

88 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is:

A=L×W (area=length × width)

A=7×8

A=56m²

The formula for the area of triangle is:

1/2×b×h (1/2 × base × height)

A=1/2×4×8

A=2×8

A=16m²

For the total area you will now add the area of each shape. We will multiply triangle area by 2 because there is 2 triangles.

A=56+2(16)

A=56+32

A=88m²

What are the coordinates of the center of the ellipse shown below?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Option D (7, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the general equation of an ellipse has the form:

\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} + \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} = 1

Where the point (h, k) are the coordinates of the center of the ellipse

In this case the equation of the ellipse is:

\frac{(x-7)^2}{4} + \frac{(y+3)^2}{16} = 1

Then

h=7\\\\k = -3

So The coordinates of the center of the ellipse are (7, -3)

Solve for X<br> 3(x + 7) &lt; 7(x + 2)
Furkat [3]

Answer:

x > 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 7) < 7(x + 2)

Expand brackets:                 3x + 21 < 7x + 14

Subtract 14 from both sides:  3x +7 < 7x

Subtract 3x from both sides:         7 < 4x

Divide both sides by 4:              7/4 < x

Therefore x > 7/4

Wittaler [7]
There is no overall increase or decrease in her bank account.

She spent $9.72 and later deposited the same exact amount. 

So the over increase or decrease was $0.

I hope I've helped you! If you have any more questions let me know!
