Answer: 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of students be represented by x

Let the number of faculty be represented by y.

Based on the information in the question, we can form an equation which will be:

x + y = 100 ..... i

10x + 25y = 1300 ....... ii

From equation i,

Make y the subject of the formula

y = 100 - x ...... iii

Put the value of equation iii into ii

10x + 25y = 1300

10x + 25(100 - x) = 1300

10x + 2500 - 25x = 1300

10x - 25x = 1300 - 2500

-15x = -1200

x = 1200/15

x = 80

There were 80 students who attended the museum opening

This is a factorial sequence that can be modeled by An = n!. As you may see, the increasing numbers are factorials of 1,2,3,4, and 5. Factorial means multiplying backwards and is represented by !. For example, 1! is 1*1 =1. 2! is 2*1, 3! is 3*2*1, 4! is 4*3*2*1 etc.
