Answer:
it is hard to tell without the original price of the gallon of milk but you consider it this way you take the price and multiply it by 1.019 each year and this gives you your new value. To make a percentage a decimal you move 2 spots to the left and to make it an increase you have to add a 1 as the 1.9% is adding to the previous price.

Answer:
212 children, and 265 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of children and adults, we can set up a systems of equations.
x= number of children
y= number of adults
Equation 1: Price
1.50x+2.25y=914.25
Equation 2: Total number of people
x+y=477
Now, let's solve the equation using substitution.
Rearrange the second equation to solve for one variable.
x+y=477
x=477-y
Now plug x equals into the first equation, and solve for y.
1.50x+2.25y=914.25
1.50(477-y)+2.25y=914.25
715.5-1.50y+2.25y=914.25
715.5+0.75y=914.25
0.75y=198.75
y=265
We just solved for the number of adults. Now let's plug y equals into the second equation to find the number of children.
x+y=477
x+265=477
x=212
