Answer:
C is the correct answer due to two-step inequality process
Step-by-step explanation:
Your inequality is: 5a + 18 < -27
First, you must remember that the < or > shall not be shaded in.
You could automatically eliminate answer A.
Now you need to do two-step inequalities which is the same thing as two-step equations but with an inequality sign.
5a + 18 < -27
5a < -27-18
5a < -45
**Now, here's something important: If you are multiplying with negatives while dealing with inequalities you must switch the sign to its opposite.
-9 > a
You need to find a number line that has numbers less than -9. It could be -10, -11, -12, -122, etc.
C is the correct answer.
-216x^9 y^18 is a perfect cube
The answer is F.)

Answer:
A = 340 adult.
C = 398 children.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children be C
Let the number of adults be A
Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;
A + C = 738 .......equation 1
1.5C + 2C = 1306 .......equation 2
A = 738 - C .......equation 3
Substituting eqn 3 into eqn 2, we have;
1.5(738 - C) + 2C = 1306
1107 - 1.5C + 2C = 1306
1306 - 1107 = 2C - 1.5C
199 = 0.5C
C = 199/0.5
<em>C = 398 children. </em>
Now, to find the value of A.
From equation 3;
A = 738 - C
A = 738 - 398
<em>A = 340 adult. </em>
