Answer:

57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of children ($1.75 each) and a represent the number of adults ( $2.00 each).

We know that there were 340 people total, so c + a = 340. This implies that a = 340 - c

We also know that $1.75 c + $2.00 a = $609.25

By substituting a with 340 -c we have $1.75 c + $2.00 (340 -c) = $609.25

Use the distributive property to obtain $1.75 c + $680 - $2.00 c = $609.25

Subtract $680 from both sides and combine like terms to get - $0.25 c = -

$70.75

Now, divide both sides by -$0.25 to get c = 283, the number of children.

The number of adults is 340 - c or 340 - 283 = 57

You take the four Aces, four $2$'s, and four $3$'s from a standard deck of 52 cards, forming a set of $12$ cards. You then deal
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Probability each player gets an ace, a $2 and a $3 = 0.0374

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ways to divide the card in triples among four players = 369600 ways

The total number of ways to share the cards such that no card is repeated in each triple = 13824 ways

Probability each player gets an ace, a $2 and a $3 = 13824/369600

Probability each player gets an ace a $2 and a $3 = 0.0374

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The solution is x=-2

The mistake could be in operation however here is the all operation

Step-by-step explanation:

Getting each term and sum each one

4x-5=2+3(x-3)\\4x-5=2+3x-9\\4x-5=-7+3x\\4x-3x=-7+5\\x=-2

Check replacing in the original equation:

4(-2)-5=2+3(-2-3)\\-8-5=2-6-9\\-13=2-15\\-13=13

The number y of deer in a county after x years can be modeled by y=0.75x^2 + 10.5x + 1300. When were there about 2000 deer? Roun
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

24 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the model of number of deers is;

y = 0.75x² + 10.5x + 1300

Where;

y represents number of deers

x represents number of years

Now, we want to find how many years it will take to get to 2000 deers.

Thus;

2000 = 0.75x² + 10.5x + 1300

0.75x² + 10.5x + 1300 - 2000 = 0

0.75x² + 10.5x - 700 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

x = [-10.5 ± √(10.5²- (4*0.75*-700)]/(2*0.75)

x = [-10.5 ± √(110.25 + 2100)]/(1.5)

x = [-10.5 ± √2210.25]/(1.5)

x ≈ -38 or 24

Number of years can't be negative, so we will take the positive value.

So, x = 24 years
