Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of people that attended the movie.

And y the number of adults that attended the movie

Given;

Percent of adults that attended the movie = 40%

Number of adults that attended the movie y = 20

So,

40% of those that attended the movie area adults.

y = 40% of x

y = 40/100 × x

y = 0.4x

(Ratio of y to x is 4:10 or 0.4)

Making x the subject of formula;

x = y/0.4

Substituting the value of y given;

x = 20/0.4

x = 50

Therefore, 50 people attended the movie.

What makes a square a square <br> why isn't a rectangle?
Lilit [14]
A square is a geometrical figure that has 4 congruent sides and angles. This means all side lengths and angles are the same.

A rectangle is a geometrical figure that has 4 similar sides but are not the same length. However, a rectangle does have congruent angles. A rectangle has 2 sides that are double the other 2 sides, in which both of each (length & width) have the same measurement.

I hope this helps!
