Answer:

kids= $3

Adults= $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let kids be x

and adults be y

First family

5x+2y= 25-----------------1

Second family

3x+y= 14-----------------2

Solve 1 and 2

5x+2y= 25 X 1

3x+y= 14     X 2

5x+2y= 25

-6x+2y= 28

-x= -3

x= 3

Put x= 3 in 1

5x+2y= 25

5(3)+2y= 25

15=2y= 25

2y= 25-15

2y= 10

divide both sides by 2

y= 10/2

y= 5

Hence kids= $3

Adults= $5

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The barge can carry up to 94 railroad cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an inequality to represent the weight of the barge to the max weight.

24 + 4r ≤ 400

Solve for r:

4r ≤ 400 - 24

4r ≤ 376

4r ≤ 376/4

r ≤ 94

rusak2 [61]
D) 47,000

0.60 (<em>x</em>+38,000)= 51,000
(0.60<em>x</em>)+22,800= 51,000
51,000-22,800= 28,200
28,200÷0.60= 47,000
0.06 (47,000+38,000)= 51,000
28,200+22,800= 51,000

3) Solve the problem using your graphing calculator. Round all para meter values to the nearest hundredth.
Mama L [17]

Answer:

mmm, well, not much we can do per se, you'd need to use a calculator.

I'd like to point out you'd need a calculator that has regression features, namely something like a TI83 or TI83+ or higher.

That said, you can find online calculators with "quadratic regression" features, which is what this, all you do is enter the value pairs in it, to get the equation.

jeka57 [31]

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation: I believe it would be false. Using the law of sines with the side lengths of 113.29 feet and 125 feet, and the corresponding angels of 25 and 65 degrees, the angle of the light is about 58.29. I believe this would make it false as the angle is incorrect.
