Answer:Number of children = 2 and number of adults = 9 attended the play

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let the  number  of children be represented as  x

and the number of adults in the group  be represented as  as y

such that the total number of the group that went to the play

= x+y=11--- equation 1

And the total cost paid for the play will be expressed as

15x+  22y= 228------ equation 2

Step 2-- Solving

x+y=11--- equation 1

15x+  22y= 228------ equation 2

B y elimination method, multiply equation 1 by 15 to give equation 3  and then subtract from equation 2

15x+  22y= 228------ equation 2

15x+15Y= 165----- equation 3

7y=63

y= 63/7= 9

y= adults = 9

therefore x = number of children will be

x+y=11

x+ 9=11

x= 11-9= 2

In the group that attended the play,  Number of children = 2 and number of adults = 9

1. Which property is illustrated by the statement?(statement below)
bearhunter [10]

1. 8(-5/6) = (-5/6)8 illustrates the commutative property of multiplication.

2. 5.4 + 3 = 3 + 5.4 illustrates the commutative property of addition.

<h3>What is the Commutative Property of Multiplication?</h3>

The commutative property of multiplication states that the arrangement of change of numbers that you want to multiply does not change what you would get as the product.

For example, a × b = b × a.

In the same vein, 8(-5/6) = (-5/6)8 illustrates the commutative property of multiplication.

<h3>What is the Commutative Property of Addition?</h3>

The commutative property of addition also states that the order or arrangement of addends will not change the sum you would get.

For example, 3 + 2 = 2 + 3.

Therefore, the statement, 5.4 + 3 = 3 + 5.4 illustrates the commutative property of addition.

To determine whether the inverse of a function is a function you can perform the horizontal line test.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{TRUE}}

Step-by-step explanation:

If a horizontal line intersects the graph of a function in all places at exactly one point (the horizontal line test), the inverse of the function is also a function.

For example, the inverse of a hyperbola (like ƒ(x) =1/x) is a function, because every horizontal line intersects with the graph at exactly one point.

However, the inverse of a parabola (like ƒ(x) = x²) is not a function, because a horizontal line intersects with the graph at two points.
