Adults = 9
Children = 2
Let x be the number of adults.
11-x is the number of children.
22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22x + 165 - 15x = 228
22x - 15x = 228 - 165
7x = 63
7x / 7 = 63 / 7
x = 9 number of adults.
11 - x = 11 - 9 = 2 number of children.
To check:
22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22(9) + 15(11-9) = 228
198 + 30 = 228
228 = 228
(not my answer btw)
Answer:
mean=average which means you add all of the numbers and divide by the number of numbers there are, which sounds pretty confusing, but i'll show you! 9+7+11+10+8=45, now you divide 45 by 5, which is how many numbers there are that we had to add. 45 divided by 5 is 9, which means the MEAN/average is 9!

Answer:
<h2>
y = -6x - 16</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of the equation is y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where (x₀, y₀) is any point the line passes through and m is the slope:
m = -6
(-3, 2) ⇒ x₀ = -3, y₀ = 2
The point-slope form of the equation:
y - 2 = -6(x + 3)
So:
y - 2 = -6x - 18 {add 2 to both sides}
y = -6x - 16 ← the slope-intercept form of the equation
The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that:
Two numbers have a sum of 71 and a difference of 37
x + y = 71
x - y = 37
So in order to get the two numbers, here it is:
x + y = 71
x - y = 37
------------
2x = 108
x = 54
y = 71 - 54
y = 17
<span>So the two numbers are 54 and 17</span>
