Answer:

A) children attended=98 b) students attended=60 c)adults attended=49

Step-by-step explanation:

system%28a%2Bc%2Bx=207%2Cc%2Fa=2%2C5c%2B7x%2B12a=1498%29

Simplify and solve the system.

-

a%2B2a%2Bx=207

3a%2Bx=207

x=207-3aandc=2a

-

The revenue equation can be written in terms of just one variable, a.

10a%2B7%28207-3a%29%2B12a=1498

Solve for a;

use it to find x and c.

FURTHER STEPS

-

10a%2B1449-21a%2B12a=1498

a%2B1449=1498

a=98-49

highlight%28a=49 -------adults

-

c=2a

c=2%2A49

highlight%28c=98 -------children

-

x=207-a-c

x=207-49-98

highlight%28x=60 ---------students

Compare the given dimensions of four triangles. Which triangle is possible to construct? side lengths of 5 ft, 12 ft, and 13 ft
kobusy [5.1K]
(5,12,13) is a right triangle and can be constructed.
All the others do not satisfy the triangle inequality, i.e. the sum of two short sides must exceed the long side in order for the triangle to be constructed.
Examples:
2+11<15, so no
3+7<11, so no
4+8<15, so no
but 5+12>13  so yes, it can be constructed.

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The question is not complete but from the flow of thought, the question seems to be about what your choice will be between option 1 and option 2.

The correct answer is

option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking you to choose an option that pays more after 30 days. In other to determine the more beneficial option, we will compare both options and select the one that pays more. This is done as follows:

option 1: $60,000 per day, after 30 days =

60,000 × 30 = $1,800,000

option 2 = $5,368,709.12 after 30 days

From the total amounts after 30 days of the two options listed above, option 2 is higher than option 1 by $3,568,709. Therefore, option 2 is a better choice.
