<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:
<u>Let's first set up some variables</u>:
- c: # of children
- a: # of adults
<u>Let's examine the information given:</u>
- Elevator can hold a maximum of 1500 pounds
⇒ average child is 75 pounds
⇒ average adult is 150 pounds
⇒<em> therefore</em>: 
- Elevator can fit no more than 14 people
⇒ <em>therefore</em>: 
<u>Let's graph the equations</u>:

⇒ look at the image attached
<u>The point at which the two graphs intersect:</u>
⇒ <em>is the solution that represents the amount of children and adults and </em>
<em> their combine weight</em>
<em />
<u><em>With the horizontal axis being the # of children and vertical axis being the # of adults</em></u><em>:</em>
<em> ⇒ the </em><em>solution is 8 children and 6 adults</em>
<em></em>
<u>Answer: 8 children and 6 adults</u>
<u></u>
Hope that helped!

Answer:
1) 12
2) c=-25
3) x = -16 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1) ..........................
- 6*(4-10+8) =
- 6*(- 6+8) =
- 6*2=
- 12
2) ..........................
- 34 + 2c = -16
- 2c = - 16 -34
- 2c = -50
- c = -50/2
- c=-25
3) ..........................
- 40 = -3x - 10
- 40+ 10 = -3x
- -3x = 50
- x = 50/-3
- x=-16 2/3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to multiply it by two because they have us 2 numbers for the legs, we use the Pythagorean theorem thing, but we have to basically add them, or we can multiply y 2(since they are the same number). Anyways
