Let
A------------> <span>number of children
B------------> </span><span>number of adults

we know that
0.40A+0.70B=5.90--------------------------> equation 1
A+B=11------------> A=11-B----------------> equation 2

using a graph tool------------> to resolve the equations system
see the attached figure

the solution is
A=6
B=5

the answer is
A is bigger</span>

Answer:

$\large \boxed{41^{\circ}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

∠1 = ∠2

∠3 = ∠4

∠JKN = ∠1 + ∠2 = 8x + 2

∠MKN = ∠3

∠MKL = ∠4 = 3x + 5

So, ∠3 = 3x + 5

$\begin{array}{rcll}(\angle 1 + \angle 2) + \angle 3 + \angle 4 & = & 180 & \text{$\vec{KJ}$ and $\vec{KL}$ are opposite rays}\\8x + 2 + 3x + 5 + 3x + 5 & = & 180 & \text{Made the substitutions}\\14x + 12 & = & 180 & \text{Simplified}\\14x & = & 168 &\text{Subtracted 12 from each side}\\x & = & \mathbf{12} & \text{Divided each side by 14}\\\angle3 & = & 3x + 5 & \\& = & 3(12) + 5 & \\& = & 36 + 5 & \\& = & \mathbf{41} & \\\end{array}\\m\angle MKN = \large \boxed{\mathbf{41^{\circ}}}$

What is the simplified form of each expression? (2 – 9c)(–8)

Gemiola [76]

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly. This is a simple algebra problem. Through the distributive property, simply multiply -8 to each of the terms inside the parenthesis:

2(-8) - 9c(-8)
-16 + 72c

The answer is A.

Suppose that a number written as a decimal has an infinite number of non-repeating digits after the decimal point. What is this

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is called an irrational number.

These numbers have some distinct properties. The number of numbers after the decimal point is infinite. What this means is that it does not terminate. It keeps on repeating.

Also, these numbers cannot be represented as a ratio of two integers i.e two whole numbers. This is because they keep on going without termination.

Lastly is that these numbers do not repeat after decimal. What I mean by this is that they do not keep repeating a particular number after the decimal point. For example in cases like 2.33333; these are infinite too, but they can be represented by the ratio of two whole numbers and in such cases, they are not irrational in their own respect

A 3 inch radius circle is drawn inside a 7 inch radius circle. If you throw a dart at these circles, what is the probability you

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to determine the areas of the inner and the bigger circles.

The formula for determining the area of a circle is expressed as

Area = πr²

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

Considering the inner circle,

diameter = 148.4 cm

Radius = 3 inches

Area = 3.14 × 3² = 28.26 inches²

Considering the bigger circle,

Radius = 7 inches

Area = 3.14 × 7² = 153.86 inches²

The area between the bigger and inner circles is

153.86 - 28.26 = 125.6 inches²

Probability = number of favourable outcome/number of total outcome.

the probability you land inside the bigger circle but outside smaller circle is

125.6/153.86 = 0.82
