Answer: 51 Children and 36 Adults.
Step-by-step explanation: Let's call x the number of children admitted and call z the number of adults admitted.
We know that x+z= 87
We also know that 3.25x+3.5z= 291.75.
We want to find the value of x and z. Then we solve the system of equations:
Multiply the first equation by -3.5 and add it to the second equation:
-3.5x-3.5z= -304.5
3.25x+3.5z= 291.75
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-0.25x=-12.75
x= -42.75 ÷ -0.25
x=51
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now we substitute the value of x in the first equation and solve for the variable z
51+z=87
z=87-51
z= 36
Omg took me like 10 minutes to calculate would appreciate brainliest. Have a wonderful day.
I believe the answer is 115 but I haven’t done this in a long time.
To solve this problem you must apply the procceddure shown below:
1. You have the following system of equations:
<span>
x+y = 3
2x–y = 6
2. Then, you must clear the variable y from the first equation and susbtitute it into the second equation, as below:
x+y=3
y=3-x
2x-y=6
2x-(3-x)=6
2x-3+x=6
3x=6+3
3x=9
3. Therefore, the value of x is:
x=9/3
x=3
4. As you can see, the correct answer is:
x=9
