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

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP!!!
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1/x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of the function, try switching the x value with the y value or function value

something like: x=1/g(x)-2

then, just manipulate the equation so that g(x) is by itself again, but this time, since it is an inverse, it's denoted as g-1(x)

x=1/g-1(x)-2

x+2=1/g-1(x)

(g-1(x))(x+2)=1

g-1(x)=1/(x+2)
