Answer:

The number is infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x

if the number increased by three, then we have;

x + 3

Also quadrupling that number increased by five all divided by four is expressed as;

(4x+5)/4

Equating bith expressions and calculating x;

x+3 = (4x+5)/4

cross multiply;

4(x+3) = 4x + 5

4x+12 = 4x + 5

4x-4x = 5 - 12

0x = -7

x = -7/0

x = ∞

Hence the number is infinity

sdas [7]

Answer:

340 children, 210 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \ a \ - adults, \ c - children;\\c + a = 450\\0.75c + 2a = 600|\cdot 4\\3c + 8a = 2400;\\\\c + a = 450|\cdot(-3)\\3c + 8a = 2400\\-3c -3a = -1350\\5a = 1050 => a = 210, c = 450 -210 = 340.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

10=16[ by cost]

Step-by-step explanation: the cost of 10 chairs is x.

the cost 16 chairs is also x. 10x = 16x

4x is loss.

Profit or Gain = Selling price – Cost price. Loss = Cost price – Selling price. Profit Percentage = [Profit/C.P.]×100. Percentage Loss = [Loss/C.P.]×100.

In simple way, we can say that sp- cp[ when it is a gain], cp -sp[ when it is a loss]. here it is a loss as well as a gain. so do both according to the formula

Solve for x. 2(x - 4) = 6(x + 2) -2 -1 -5 4
Iteru [2.4K]
Distribute on both sides

2x - 8 = 6x + 12

Move x to one side

-20 = 4x

Divide by 4

-5 = x
