Answer:
450 people paid the discounted fare and 750 people paid the regular fare.
Step-by-step explanation:
let r be regular fares paid and d be discounted fares paid
Total fares = 0.8r + 0.4d = 780
Since 1200 people paid the fares,
r + d = 1200 = Total people
Rearrange this formula:
r = 1200 - d
Substitute r into Total Fares formula
Total fares = 0.8r + 0.4d
780 = 0.8(1200-d) + 0.4d
780 = 960 - 0.8d + 0.4d
780 = 960 - 0.4d
0.4d = 180
d = 450
Sub d=450 into Total people formula
r + d = 1200 = Total people
r + 450 = 1200
r = 1200-450
r = 750
450 people paid the discounted fare and 750 people paid the regular fare.
13.45 will be the answer
since we are finding the hypotenuse, the formula is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
this will then be 10^2 + 9^2 = c^2
181=c^2
c=13.45 :)
Yes it is. Input the numbers into the pythagorean theorem,
and if they equal each other it is a right triangle.
2x + y - (x + y) = 3z - 6z
--------------------------------------------------------
<span>x = -3z </span>
------------------------------------------
<span>(-3z, 9z) </span>
----------------------------------
<span>(x,y,z) = (-3z, 9z, z)

<span>x = -3z, y = 9z

There for the answer is </span><span>(-3z, 9z) </span>
Answer:Robert's minimum age is 11 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent George's age.
Let y represent Edward's age.
Let z represent Robert's age.
George is twice as old as Edward. It means that
x = 2y
Edward's age exceeds Robert's age by 4 years. It means that
z = y - 4
If the sum of the three ages is at least 56 years, it means that
x + y + z ≥ 56 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 2y and z = y - 4 into equation 1, it becomes
2y + y + y - 4 ≥ 56
4y - 4 ≥ 56
4y ≥ 56 + 4
y ≥ 60/4
y ≥ 15
z = y - 4 = 15 - 4
z ≥ 11
