Answer:

218 adults and 104 children attended.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can write the following equations:

x+y=322 (1)

8.75x+6y=2531.50 (2), where:

x is the number of adults

y is the number of children

First, you can solve for x in (1):

x=322-y (3)

Then, you can replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

8.75(322-y)+6y=2531.50

2817.5-8.75y+6y=2531.50

2817.5-2531.50=8.75y-6y

286=2.75y

y=286/2.75

y=104

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find x:

x=322-104

x=218

According to this, the answer is that 218 adults and 104 children attended.

use the formulas for lowering powers to rewrite the expression in terms of the first power of cosine cos^4
Firdavs [7]

The expression cos⁴ θ in terms of the first power of cosine is <u>[ 3 + 2cos 2θ + cos 4θ]/8.</u>

The power-reducing formula, for cosine, is,

cos² θ = (1/2)[1 + cos 2θ].

In the question, we are asked to use the formulas for lowering powers to rewrite the expression in terms of the first power of cosine cos⁴ θ.

We can do it as follows:

cos⁴ θ

= (cos² θ)²

= {(1/2)[1 + cos 2θ]}²

= (1/4)[1 + cos 2θ]²

= (1/4)(1 + 2cos 2θ + cos² 2θ] {Using (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²}

= 1/4 + (1/2)cos 2θ + (1/4)(cos ² 2θ)

= 1/4 + (1/2)cos 2θ + (1/4)(1/2)[1 + cos 4θ]

= 1/4 + cos 2θ/4 + 1/8 + cos 4θ/8

= 3/8 + cos 2θ/4 + cos 4θ/8

= [ 3 + 2cos 2θ + cos 4θ]/8.

Thus, the expression cos⁴ θ in terms of the first power of cosine is <u>[ 3 + 2cos 2θ + cos 4θ]/8</u>.
