Answer:

21 children

Step-by-step explanation: 6.50x+8.75y=259

This equation came from the cost of the tickets for the children and adults.

x+y=35

This comes from the group of 35 people that consists of children and adults.

We can use substitution to solve for x and y.

x=35-y

6.50(35-y)+8.75y=259

227.5-6.50y+8.75y=259

227.5+2.25y=259

2.25y=31.5

y=14

Now that we have found y, we can plug it into any of the equations to find x.

x+14=35

x=21

Therefore, there are 21 children and 14 adults in the group.

Anton [14]

Answer:

£4867.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P= £4500

T=2 years

R= 4%

The compound interest expression

A=P(1+r)^t

substitute

A= 4500(1+0.04)^2

A=4500(1.04)^2

A=4500*1.0816

A=£4867.2

Hence the balance is £4867.2
