Answer:

the number of child plates and adults plates were served is 125 and 155 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the child plate be x

And, the adult plates be y

Now according to the question

x + y = 280 .................(1)

2.60x + 9.50y = 1797.50 .............(2)

Now multiply by 2.60x in equation (1)

2.60x + 2.60y = 728

2.60x + 9.50y = 1797.50

-6.90y = -1069.50

y = 155

So, x = 280 - 155

= 125

hence, the number of child plates and adults plates were served is 125 and 155 respectively

What is the value of StartFraction 6 Over x EndFraction + 2x2, when x = 3?
Shalnov [3]
<h2>The value of StartFraction 6 Over x EndFraction + 2x2, when x = 3 is 20.</h2>

Explanation:

The given expression is \frac{6}{x}+2x^2\\

When x = 3, the expression becomes \frac{6}{3}+2(3)^2

2+2\times9

= 2 + 18 = 20

What is sin -1 (1/2) if the terminal side of 0 is located in quadrant 1
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

sin^-1 (1/2) = 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the trigonometry functions from the unit circle

- The unit circle is the circle whose radius is 1 unit

- It intersects the four axes at:

# Positive part of x-axis at (1 , 0) and negative part at (-1 , 0)

# Positive part of y-axis at (0 , 1) and negative part at (0 , -1)

- The terminal of any angle intersect it at point (x , y) where x² + y² = 1

- If The angle between the terminal side and the x-axis is Ф , then

# The adjacent side of Ф = x

# The opposite side of the angle Ф = y

- In the problem the terminal side lies in the first quadrant

∴ all the trigonometry functions are positive

∵ sin Ф = opposite/hypotenuse

∵ The opposite = 1/2 and the hypotenuse is the terminal side = 1

∴ sin Ф = 1/2 ÷ 1 = 1/2

- To find Ф use the inverse function sin^-1 Ф

∵ sin Ф = 1/2

∴ Ф = sin^-1 (1/2)

∴ Ф = 30°

* sin^-1 (1/2) = 30°
