Answer:
286 students attended
148 non students attended
Step-by-step explanation:
Given




Solving (a): Number of students
Represent students with S and non students with N
So:
--- (1)
--- (2)
Make N the subject of formula in (1)

Substitute 434 - S for N in (2)

Divide through by -2

<em>Hence; 286 students attended</em>
Solving (b):
Recall that



<em>148 non students attended</em>
We can’t see the picture it shows a black screen!!
Your answer should be 1200 inches cubed
There 7 blocks of hundreds which means each such block is equivalent to 100.
There are 5 blocks of tens, which means each such block is equivalent to 10.
There are 8 blocks of ones, which means each such block is equivalent to 1.
The total of these blocks will be = 7(100) + 5(10) + 8(10) = 758
We can make several two 3-digit numbers from these blocks. An example is listed below:
Example:
Using 3 hundred block, 2 tens blocks and 4 ones block to make one number and remaining blocks to make the other number. The remaining blocks will be 4 hundred blocks, 3 tens blocks and 4 ones blocks
The two numbers we will make in this case are:
1st number = 3(100) + 2(10) + 4(1) = 324
2nd number = 4(100) + 3(10) + 4(1) = 434
The sum of these two numbers is = 324 + 434 = 758
i.e. equal to the original sum of all blocks.
This way changing the number of blocks in each place value, different 3 digit numbers can be generated.
