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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

lets have one side =a

P=3a+a+(17+a)=52

P=5a+17=52

5a=52-17

5a=35

a=7

second side=21

third side=24

Find the area of the region that lies inside the first curve and outside the second curve.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

r = 10 cos( θ)

r = 5

We are to find the  the area of the region that lies inside the first curve and outside the second curve.

The first thing we need to do is to determine the intersection of the points in these two curves.

To do that :

let equate the two parameters together

So;

10 cos( θ) = 5

cos( θ) = \dfrac{1}{2}

\theta = -\dfrac{\pi}{3}, \ \  \dfrac{\pi}{3}

Now, the area of the  region that lies inside the first curve and outside the second curve can be determined by finding the integral . i.e

A = \dfrac{1}{2} \int \limits^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}} (10 \ cos \  \theta)^2 d \theta - \dfrac{1}{2} \int \limits^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}} \ \  5^2 d \theta

A = \dfrac{1}{2} \int \limits^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}} 100 \ cos^2 \  \theta  d \theta - \dfrac{25}{2} \int \limits^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}} \ \   d \theta

A = 50 \int \limits^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}} \begin {pmatrix}  \dfrac{cos \ 2 \theta +1}{2}  \end {pmatrix} \ \ d \theta - \dfrac{25}{2}  \begin {bmatrix} \theta   \end {bmatrix}^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}}

A =\dfrac{ 50}{2} \int \limits^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{-\dfrac{\pi}{3}} \begin {pmatrix}  {cos \ 2 \theta +1}  \end {pmatrix} \ \    d \theta - \dfrac{25}{2}  \begin {bmatrix}  \dfrac{\pi}{3} - (- \dfrac{\pi}{3} )\end {bmatrix}

A =25  \begin {bmatrix}  \dfrac{sin2 \theta }{2} + \theta \end {bmatrix}^{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}_{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}    \ \ - \dfrac{25}{2}  \begin {bmatrix}  \dfrac{2 \pi}{3} \end {bmatrix}

A =25  \begin {bmatrix}  \dfrac{sin (\dfrac{2 \pi}{3} )}{2}+\dfrac{\pi}{3} - \dfrac{ sin (\dfrac{-2\pi}{3}) }{2}-(-\dfrac{\pi}{3})  \end {bmatrix} - \dfrac{25 \pi}{3}

A = 25 \begin{bmatrix}   \dfrac{\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} }{2} +\dfrac{\pi}{3} + \dfrac{\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} }{2} +   \dfrac{\pi}{3}  \end {bmatrix}- \dfrac{ 25 \pi}{3}

A = 25 \begin{bmatrix}   \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2 } +\dfrac{2 \pi}{3}   \end {bmatrix}- \dfrac{ 25 \pi}{3}

A =    \dfrac{25 \sqrt{3}}{2 } +\dfrac{25 \pi}{3}

The diagrammatic expression showing the area of the region that lies inside the first curve and outside the second curve can be seen in the attached file below.
