Given :

The admission fee at a small fair is $1.50 for children and $4.00 for adults.

On a certain day, 2,200 people enter the fair and $5,050 is collected.

To Find :

How many children and how many adults attended.

Solution :

Let, number of children and adults attended are c and a.

So, c + a = 2200      ....1)

Now, fair collected is given by :

1.5c + 4a = 5050     ....2)

Putting value of a from equation 1) to 2), we get :

1.5c + 4( 2200 - c ) = 5050

1.5c - 4c = 5050 - 8800

2.5c = 3750

c = 1500

a = 2200 - 1500

a = 700

Therefore, 1500 children and 700 adults attended the fair.

Height of the House, h = 24 feet

Distance between the house and the ladder, b = 7 feet

length of the ladder, x = ?

The house makes 90° with the base of the ladder.

Using pythagoras  theorm,

x² = h² + b²

x² = (24)² + (7)²

x = √625
