Answer:

Number of children = 386

Number of adults = 287

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of children

y = number of adults

x + y = 673 (1)

1.75x + 2y = 1249.50 (2)

From (1)

x = 673 - y

Substitute x = 673 - y into (2)

1.75x + 2y = 1249.50

1.75(673 - y) + 2y = 1249.50

1177.75 - 1.75y + 2y = 1249.50

- 1.75y + 2y = 1249.50 - 1177.75

0.25y = 71.75

y = 71.75/0.25

y = 287

Substitute y = 287 into (1)

x + y = 673

x + 287 = 673

x = 673 - 287

x = 386

Number of children = 386

Number of adults = 287

Given the speeds of each runner below, determine who runs the fastest.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Stephanie  

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare each runner's speed, we must convert them all to the same units.

Let's convert then all to feet per second.

1. Stephanie

Speed = 13 ft/s

2. Emily

\text{Speed} = \dfrac{\text{538 ft}}{\text{45 s}} = \text{12.0 ft/s}

3. Brooke

\text{Speed} = \dfrac{\text{1 mi}}{\text{560 s}} \times \dfrac{\text{5280 ft}}{\text{1 mi}} = \text{9.4 ft/s}

4. Katie

\text{ speed} = \dfrac{\text{747 ft}}{\text{1 min}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 min}}{\text{60 s}} = \textbf{12.4 ft/s}

Stephanie is the fastest runner.

Use substitution to solve the system of equations.<br> x-2y=1<br> 3x-6y=3
Ivahew [28]
Change first equation
x - 2y = 1
add 2y to both side
x = 2y + 1
Plug into second equation
3(2y+1) - 6y = 3
Distributive property
6y + 3 - 6y = 3
y = 0, plug into first equation
x - 2(0) = 1, x = 1
Solution: x = 1, y = 0
