Given:

Admission to the local movie theater is $3 for each child and $7 for each adult.

A group of 12 people pay $64 admission.

To find:

The number of children in a group.

Solution:

Let the number of children be x and number of adults be y.

According to the question,

Total persons : x+y=12          ...(i)

Total cost : 3x+7y=64     ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 7 and subtract the result from (ii).

3x+7y-7(x+y)=64-7(12)

3x+7y-7x-7y=64-84

-4x=-20

Divide both sides by -4.

x=5

Therefore, the number of children is 5.

Please help with this one question that I've been stuck on!!! In a random sample of 74 homeowners in a city, 22 homeowners said
Arturiano [62]

Anders Celsius (Swedish pronunciation: [ˌanːdəʂ ˈsɛlːsiɵs], 27 November 1701 – 25 April 1744) was a Swedish astronomer, physicist and mathematician. He was professor of astronomy at Uppsala University from 1730 to 1744, but traveled from 1732 to 1735 visiting notable observatories in Germany, Italy and France. He founded the Uppsala Astronomical Observatory in 1741, and in 1742 proposed (an inverted form of) the Centigrade temperature scale which was later renamed Celsius in his honor.

Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about two young Italian star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding families. It was among Shakespeare's most popular plays during his lifetime and, along with Hamlet, is one of his most frequently performed plays.

Plz help with the math worth 21 points
irinina [24]

Answer:

As there is one math problem over there.

Lets see the question first:

It says that "A hair dryer is rated 1200\ W,if you use the dryer for 0.25\ h.How much electric energy do you use ?"

Final answer = Electic energy =0.3\ kW\ h

Step-by-step explanation:

Electrical Energy E=Power \times time.

The total amount of electrical energy used depends on the total power used by the electrical device and the total time they are used for.

So we have been given the power of the hair dryer =1200\ W =\frac{1200}{1000}=1.2\ kW

Now the time it has been use for =0.25\ hrs

To calculate electric energy we will multiply both the terms.

Electric energy =0.12 \times 0.25 =0.3\ kW\ h

So electric energy used for the hairdryer is =0.3\ kW\ h
