Answer:

A = 340 adult.

C = 398 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of children be C

Let the number of adults be A

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

A + C = 738  .......equation 1

1.5C + 2C = 1306  .......equation 2

A = 738 - C .......equation 3

Substituting eqn 3 into eqn 2, we have;

1.5(738 - C) + 2C = 1306

1107 - 1.5C + 2C = 1306

1306 - 1107 = 2C - 1.5C

199 = 0.5C

C = 199/0.5

<em>C = 398 children. </em>

Now, to find the value of A.

From equation 3;

A = 738 - C

A = 738 - 398

<em>A = 340 adult. </em>

What is the measurement of angle a?
Illusion [34]
Assuming we have parallel lines, we can solve for x.
Since a = 3x - 10 (vertically opposite angles are equal),
3x - 10 = 2x + 15 (alternate angles are equal)
x = 25

Hence, angle a = 3(25) - 10 = 65°

Answer:

  (a)  169.1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows you the distance (x) will be shorter than 170 m, but almost that length. The only reasonable answer choice is ...

  169.1 m

__

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

The leg of the right triangle adjacent to the marked angle is x, and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Putting these values into the equation, you have ...

  cos(6°) = x/(170 m)

  x = (170 m)cos(6°) ≈ (170 m)(0.994522) ≈ 169.069 m

The horizontal distance covered is about 169.1 meters.

Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this hill is tan(6°) ≈ 10.5%. It would be considered to be a pretty steep hill for driving.
