Answer:
See below, please!
Step-by-step explanation:
There are infinite number of ratios equivalent to 3:8 because both numbers can be multiplied by a common number or divided by a common number.
For example, 9:24 would still be equivalent to 3:8 because the common number in our case is 3. See what I mean?

Answer:
The line crosses the x-axis at the point (-3.5,0).
Answer:
x = 44
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt(x+5) -3 =4
Add 3 to each side
sqrt(x+5) -3+3 =4+3
sqrt(x+5) =7
Square each side
(sqrt(x+5))^2 =7^2
x+5 = 49
Subtract 5 from each side
x+5-5 = 49-5
x=44
Answer:
Number of children, x= 400
Number of adults, y = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children be x
Let the number of adults be y
Given : Total number of people, x + y = 500 --------(1)
Total amount collected, 5x + 10y = 3000 ---------(2)
(1) => y = 500 - x
Substitute y in (2) : 5x + 10(500 - x) = 3000
5x + 5000 - 10x = 3000
-5x = 3000 - 5000
-5x = -2000
x = 400
Substitute x in (1) : 400 + y = 500
y = 500 - 400
y = 100
