Answer: Children = 108

Adult = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of children

Let y = number of adult

Based on the information given, we can form an equation which will be:

x + y = 160 ........ i

2x + 5y = 476 ........ ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 1

2x + 2y = 320 ....... iii

2x + 5y = 476 ........ iv

Subtract iii from iv

3y = 156

y = 52

Number of adults = 52

Since x + y = 160

x + 52 =160

x = 160 - 52

x = 108

Number of children = 108

A shipping container will be used to transport several 140-kilogram crates across the
velikii [3]

Answer:

91.42 crates

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Greatest Number of 140kg crates = x

weight of crate = 140-kilogram

Weight of other shipment = 13200 kilograms

greatest weight of container = 26000 kilograms

Weight of other shipment + (weight of crate * number of crates) ≤ greatest weight of container

13,200 + 140x ≤ 26,000

140x ≤ 26,000 - 13,200

140x ≤ 12,800

x ≤ 12,800/140

x ≤ 91.42 kilograms

Greatest Number of 140kg crates = 91.42 crates

Tori examined the pattern of exponents in the table.
gregori [183]

Answer:

The value of b = 1/36

As exponent decreases, each previous value is divided by 6

If the table was extended, the value of 6^-3 would be 1/216

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question a table containing power of 6

We will use negative rule of exponent to write the equivalent of negative power of 6

b^{-n}= 1 / b^{n}

we know that

6^{1}=6

so

6^{-1} =\frac{1}{6^{1} }

= 1/6

and

6^{2} = 36

So,

6^{-2} = \frac{1}{6^{2} }

=

\frac{1}{36}

Solve using the quadratic formula. Approximate answers to the nearest tenth.<br> Help
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

x = 2.4 or x = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² - 8x + 2 = 0

Quadratic formula

x = {-b ±√b² - 4ac} / 2a

a = 3

b = -8

c = 2

x = {-b ±√b² - 4ac} / 2a

= {-(-8) ±√(-8)² - 4*3*2} / 2*3

= (8 ± √64 - 24) / 6

= (8 ± √40) / 6

= (8 ± 2√10) / 6

= 8/6 ± 2√10/6

= 4/3 ± √10 / 6

x = 4/3 + √10 / 6 or 4/3 - √10 / 6

x = 2.4 or x = 0.3
