Answer:102 children and 337 adults swam at the publice pool that da

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of children be x

and

the number of adults be y

such that the total number of people who came to use the public swimming pool be expressed as

x + y = 439----- Equation 1

and price  for swimming be expressed as

1.75x + 2.50y =1021----- Equation 2

Step 2

x + y = 439----- Equation 1

1.75x + 2.50y =1021----- Equation 2

First make x the subject formulae and put in equation 2

x= 439-y

1.75 (430-y) + 2.50y = 1021

Solving gives

768.25-1.75y+2.50y=1021

2.50y-1.75y=1021-768.25

0.75y=252.75

y =252.75/0.75  

y=337

To find x, put the value of y = 337 in equation 1

x+y= 439

x= 439-337

x=102

Therefore 102 children and 337 adults swam at the public pool that day

Answer:

1) 35+5w=110

2) the starting heart rate is 73 beats per minute

3)B

4) 6mins

Step-by-step explanation:

1) since she deposits 5 dollars each week we can multiply 5 and w to find out how much money hes depositing after all the weeks are done. We need to add that with 35 to get the TOTAL money in the bank account.

2) 73 is the y intercept. The y intercept is the number when "x" is 0. So when hes just starting out/not excersizing his heart beats 73 beats per min.

3) we know that 10% of her tips is given back to her hence x(number of tips) is multiplied by 0.1, and added to 50 to find the total amount of money she receives

4) 6 mins for 1 order

Whatis the value of y?​
Romashka [77]
Answer is A, y = 65

The top angle is 50 because 180 - 130 = 50
Since the top angle is 50, the two bottom angles have to add up to 130. Since the bottom angles are the same, you can do 130 / 2 to find the angles which equals 65.
