Answer:
12 .
Step-by-step explanation:
12
M + f + a = 82
m = 7a + 1
f = 1/2m.....f = 1/2(7a + 1).....f = 3.5a + 0.5
7a + 1 + 3.5a + 0.5 + a = 82
11.5a + 1.5 = 82
11.5a = 82 - 1.5
11.5a = 80.5
a = 80.5 / 11.5
a = 7......7 adults
m = 7a + 1
m = 7(7) + 1
m = 49 + 1
m = 50 <=== 50 male students
f = 1/2m
f = 1/2(50)
f = 25 <=== 25 female students

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The mechanic who worked 5 hours charged $45 per hour while the mechanic who worked for 15 hours charged $105 per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the rate of mechanic who worked 5 hours
And y, the rate of mechanic who worked 15 hours
Represent the question in an equation
x + y = 150.............. equation 1
5x + 15y = 1800........equation 2
x + y = 150, x = 150 -y
Substitute the value of x into equation 2 to get y
= 5 (150 -y) + 15y = 1800
Then open the bracket
750 - 5y + 15y = 1800
750 + 10y = 1800
10y = 1800 - 750
10y= 1050 (divide both sides by 10)
y = 1050/10
y = 105
Substitute the value of y into equation 1 to get the value of x
x + 105 = 150
x = 150 - 105
x = 45
Therefore, the mechanic who worked 5 hours charged $45 per hour while the mechanic who worked for 15 hours charged $105 per hour.
