13 – 6x = 2(8 + 3x) <br> x= ???????

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

$13-6x=2\left(8+3x\right)$

$13-6x=16+6x$

$13-6x-13=16+6x-13$

$-6x=6x+3$

$-6x-6x=6x+3-6x$

$-12x=3$

$\frac{-12x}{-12}=\frac{3}{-12}$

$x=-\frac{1}{4}$

or

$x=-0.25$

On a certain hot summer's day, 643 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are $1.50 for children and $2.00 for

lilavasa [31]

249 children and 394 adults swam at the public pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people swam at pool = 643

Receipts = $1161.50

Cost for one child = $1.50

Cost for one adult = $2.00

Let,

x be the number of children

y be the number of adults

According to given statement;

x+y=643 Eqn 1

1.50x+2.00y = 1161.50 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2

$2(x+y=643)\\2x+2y=1286\ \ \ Eqn\ 3\\$

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

$(2x+2y)-(1.50x+2.00y)=1286-1161.50\\2x+2y-1.50x-2.00y=124.50\\0.5x=124.50$

Dividing both sides by 0.5

$\frac{0.5x}{0.5}=\frac{124.50}{0.5}\\x=249$

Putting x=249 in Eqn 1

$249+y=643\\y=643-249\\y=394$

249 children and 394 adults swam at the public pool.
