Answer:

Therefore, the number of adults at the football game was 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represents the number of adults and C represents the number of children.

Therefore, the ratio of children to adults is given as follows:

23:1 = C:A ....................... (1)

Since C = 140, this is substituted into equation (1) as follows:

23:1 = = 140:A ....................... (2)

Transforming equation (2) and solve for A, we have:

23 / (23 + 1) = 140 / (140 + A)

23 / 24 = 140 / (140 + A)

0.958333333333333 = 140 / (140 + A)

0.958333333333333 (140 + A) = 140

(0.958333333333333 * 140) + 0.958333333333333A = 140

134.166666666667 + 0.958333333333333A = 140

0.958333333333333A = 140 -134.166666666667

0.958333333333333A = 5.833333333333

A = 5.833333333333 / 0.958333333333333

A = 6.08695652173878

Rounding to a whole number, we have:

A = 6

Therefore, the number of adults at the football game was 6.

Consider the differential equation dydx=6x, dydx=6x, with initial condition y(0)=4y(0)=4.
topjm [15]
Formatting is kind of messed up. I'm assuming the differential equations is dy/dx = 6x

You need to get all the x's on one side and y'all on the other.

dy =6x dx

Integrate both sides.

y = 3x^2 + C

Now plug in the given values

y(0) = 4 = 3(0)^2 + C

C = 0

y = 3x^2

Plug 1 in for x to find the value of y(1)

y(1) = 3(1)^2 = 3
