Answer: There are 69 adults and 72 children went to the concert.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of adults, and y be the number of children.
x + y = 141
3.5x + 2.5y = 421.5
x + y =141
x = 141 - y
3.5(141 - y) + 2.5y = 421.5
493.5 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 421.5
493.5 - y = 421.5
-y = -72
y = 72
x + y = 141
x + 72 = 141
x = 69
Answer:A that is what I think the answer is
It would be 2(x+3)(x+1)=0
Explanation:
I used factor by grouping. You multiply the first term (2) by the last term (6). This gives you 12 then take the factors of 12 that add up to the middle term 8. You get 6 and 2.
It should look like 2x^2+6x+2x+6=0
when you do factor by grouping you factor the first two terms and then the last two terms separately. So you get (2x+2) and (x+3). (2x+2) could be factored into 2(x+1). Then you put everything together and get 2(x+3)(x+1)=0
Here is one way to solve for x.
Step 1) 2x^2-7=9
Step 2) 2x^2-7+7=9+7
Step 3) 2x^2=16
Step 4) (2x^2)/2=16/2
Step 5) x^2=8
Step 6) sqrt(x^2)=sqrt(8)
Step 7) |x|=sqrt(8)
Step 8) x=sqrt(8) or x=-sqrt(8)
-------------------------------------
Below are explanations/reasons to each of the steps above.
Step 1) Original equation
Step 2) Add 7 to both sides
Step 3) Combine like terms
Step 4) Divide both sides by 2
Step 5) Simplify
Step 6) Apply the square root to both sides. The notation "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
Step 7) Use the rule that sqrt(x^2) = |x| for all real numbers x
Step 8) Use the rule that if |x| = k then x = k or x = -k for some fixed number k.
-------------------------------------
The two solutions are
x = sqrt(8) or x = -sqrt(8)
