using proportional law 5.6
Answer:
lets call the children, c, and call adult, a,
c+a= 52 eq 1: a=52-c
c=3a eq 2
take a's value from eq 1 and plug it into eq 2
c=3(52-c)
c=156-3c
4c=156
c=39 the number of children that attended the ball game.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Well you’re solving for “x,” so you’ll need to isolate this variable. This means we need to “get rid of” the fraction 2/3 that is attached to it. The faction is attached by the operation multiplication, so to remove it we must divide it on both sides. And division with fractions requires the reciprocal. (Try watching an explanation if you’re confused on why division requires reciprocals).
Answer: 22
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question the, we are informed that members of a lacrosse team raised $1352.50 to go to a tournament and that they rented a bus for $802.50 and budgeted $25 per player for meals.
The equation which can be used to determine p, the number of players the team can bring to the tournament would be calculated as:
802.50 + 25p = 1352.50
25p = 1352.50 - 802.50
25p = 550
p = 550/25
p = 22
They can bring 22 players to the tournament
