<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:
<u>Let's first set up some variables</u>:
- c: # of children
- a: # of adults
<u>Let's examine the information given:</u>
- Elevator can hold a maximum of 1500 pounds
⇒ average child is 75 pounds
⇒ average adult is 150 pounds
⇒<em> therefore</em>: 
- Elevator can fit no more than 14 people
⇒ <em>therefore</em>: 
<u>Let's graph the equations</u>:

⇒ look at the image attached
<u>The point at which the two graphs intersect:</u>
⇒ <em>is the solution that represents the amount of children and adults and </em>
<em> their combine weight</em>
<em />
<u><em>With the horizontal axis being the # of children and vertical axis being the # of adults</em></u><em>:</em>
<em> ⇒ the </em><em>solution is 8 children and 6 adults</em>
<em></em>
<u>Answer: 8 children and 6 adults</u>
<u></u>
Hope that helped!

The quotient rule for exponents states that if we divide exponents with the same base, then we can subtract the exponents and keep the base unchanged.
Hello
To find an equal ratio, you can either multiply or divide each term in the ratio by the same number (but not zero). For example, if we divide both terms in the ratio 3:6 by the number three, then we get the equal ratio, 1:2.
Answer:
222.7 cm³ of paper to wrap this.
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular prism is SA=2(wl+hl+hw)
Where:
w=5 l=5 h=4
SA= 2((5*5)+(4*5)+(4*5))
SA=2(25+20+20)
SA=2(65)=130cm³
The square base pyramid is 

≈92.69578 cm³
Add the two together 130+92.70 =222.7 cm³
