Answer:

x = students

y = adults

Linear Systems of Equations :

x + y = 937

0.75x + 2y = 1,109

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : eliminate one of the variables

x + y = 937

0.75x + 2y = 1,109

-2(x + y = 937) = -2x - 2y = -1874

-2x - 2y = -1874

0.75x + 2y = 1109

We can eliminate y since -2y + 2y = 0

Step 2: Find x number of students.

-2x = -1874

+0.75x = 1109

____________

-1.25x = -765

____________ = 612 students attended

     -1.25

937 - 612 = 325 adults

Check Answer :

612 x 0.75 = $459

325 x 2 = $650

$650 + $459 = $1,109

Therefore, there will be 612 students attending and 325 adults.

Harrison can purchase 4 dvds for $19.99 or 6 dvds for $22.50 which is the better deal?
adelina 88 [10]

$19.99 x 4 = $79.96

$22.50 x 6 = $135

$19.99 x 6 = $119.94

$22.50 x 4 = $90

The best answer to this choice is 4 dvds for $19.99. why?, because if it was 6 or 4 dvds for $19.99 the price would be more inexpensive then the price for $22.50, because if it was 22.50 x 4 or 6 dvds the price would be more expensive.

I need the answers for both a and b so thats why 61 points are up for grab
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

a). Triangle in the figure is ΔBCF

b). Since, L_1 and L_2 are the parallel lines and m is a transversal line,

   m∠FBC = m∠BFG [Alternate interior angles]

   Since,  L_1 and L_2 are the parallel lines and n is a transversal line,

   m∠BCF = m∠CFE [Alternate interior angles]

   By triangle sum theorem in ΔBCF

   m∠FBC + m∠BCF + m∠BFC = 180°

   From the properties given above,

   m∠BFG + m∠CFE + m∠BFC = 180°

   m∠GFE = 180°

Therefore, angle GFE is the straight angle that will be useful in proving that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of the triangle is 180°.
