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.

Does -2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2) have one,zero or infinite solutions
Andrew [12]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

One solution (z = -1)

Discussion:

-2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2)        =>

-2z -6 -z = -z -4z - 8       =>

-3z -6 = -5z -8                =>  add 6 to both sides

-2z = -5z -2                     => add 5z to both sides

3z = -5z +5z -3               =>

3z = -3                            =>

z = -1

Thank you,

MrB

Point A is located at (−2, −6), and D is located at (−6, 8). Find the coordinates of the point that lies halfway between A and D
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

(-4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point A is located at (−2, −6), and D is located at (−6, 8).

We need to find the midpoint of A  and D

Mid point formula is (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Point A is (-2,-6) that is (x1,y1)

Point D is (-6,8) that is (x2, y2)

plug in the values in the formula

(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

(\frac{-2-6}{2}, \frac{-6+8}{2})

(\frac{-8}{2}, \frac{2}{2})

Mid point is (-4, 1)
