Answer:
33 children
62 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up 2 equations (a=adults c=children)
The first equation will be 3.25(a)+3 = 300.5
The second equation will be a + c = 95
Subtract c from both sides to get:
a = 95 - c
Replace c in the 1st equation to get:
3.25(95-c) + 3c = 300.5
Distribute 3.25 to 95 and -c:
308.75 - 3.25c + 3c = 300.5
Subtract 308.75 from both sides:
-3.25c + 3c = 300.5 - 308.75
Combine like terms:
-0.25c = -8.25
Divide by -0.25
children = 33
Subtract 33 from 95 to get
adults = 62
The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope.
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4
B. y = 4x + 9
C. y = x + 18
D. y = 3x + 22
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept?
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10.
That leaves us with A and B.
Which has the closest approximation of the slope?
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15.
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.
Therefore, the answer is
B) y= 4x + 9

It is either 400 or negative 400 because if you devide 12 by .03 it is 400
