x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
x + y = 12
<span>14x + 10y = 140
lets multiply the first equation by -10 and then add it to the second equation:
-10x - 10y = -120
</span>14x + 10y = <span>140
</span>-----------------------
4x + 0 = 20
x = 20/4
x = 5
then substitute in the original equation:
x + y = <span>12
</span>5 + y = <span>12
</span>y = 12 - 5
y = 7
therefore there were 5 adults and 7 children
Formula: y = mx + b
m being the slope
Slope given: -2, plug it in
Y = -2x + b
Now find y intercept (b)
Plug in the point (5,-11)
-11 = -2(5) + b
-11 = -10 + b, b = -1
Solution: y = -2x -1
Answer:
20c+14
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the perimeter we have to add up all the sides
4c+6c+7+4c+6c+7
Combine light terms
20c+14
(11 + 21) - ( 3 - 100 )
= 32 + 97
= 129
or (11+21)-(3+100)
= 32 - 103
= - 71
I have no idea about your topic but hope it's right! Good luck
