Answer:
the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
8,333 total population
Step-by-step explanation:
Question can be restated as "5000 is 60% of what number?"
5000 = .6x
x = 5000/0.6
x = 8,333.33
X=number of adults, y= number of students
x+y=12
18x+12y=162
You can simplify the second equation by dividing by six: 3x+2y=27
Rearrange the first equation: y= 12-x. Plug y into the simplified second equation:
3x+2(12-x)=27
3x-2x+24=27
x=3.
Plug the now known x value into y=12-x. So y= 9.
Therefore, there are 3 adults and 9 students.
-8 you divide and since there is a negative you add a negative
