Answer:

<u>112 children</u>

<u>180 adults</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adults = A

Let the number of children = C

A + C =292

4A + 1.5C = 888. solve for A, C

A = 292 - C

4[292 - C] + 1.5C = 888

1,168 - 4C + 1.5C = 888

-2.5C = - 280

C = -280 / -2.5

C = 112 - Number of children

292 - 112 = 180 - Number of adults

Hey guys ( or gals ) I have no idea what to do please help me.

Answer:

Irrational numbers cannot be written as a fraction, or the ratio of two whole numbers.

You would have to find a GCF (greatest common factor) and multiply it out of the radical.

ex.

\sqrt{6} = 2 x 2 x 2

when you have to multiplier numbers then you can combine two of them to take outside the radical, meaning 2x2x2

2\sqrt{2\\}

so \sqrt{6} would be closest to the positive 2 on the number line and 2 notches.

\sqrt{11}

is an irrational number, so it might fall into 3.3 if turned into a decimal.

If possible may someone help me please?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Given, ∠MNP=107 degree.

Therefore, ∠QPN= 107 degree. [as, MN=PQ]

We know, sum of four angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degree.

And as MN=PQ, ∠NMQ=∠MQP.

Therefore, ∠MQP= {360 degree-( 107degree+ 107 degree)}/2

                             =( 360 degree-214 degree)/2

                            = 146 degree/2

                            =73 degree.

hope this will help you.

What does PEMDAS mean in math
Dahasolnce [82]

Hey there!

PEMDAS simply means (the OVERALL question answer)


• Parentheses
• Exponents
• Multiplication
• Division
• Addition
• Subtraction


Here’s an example

24 - 4^2 + 2 * 4

= 24 - 16 + 2 * 4

= 24 - 16 + 8

= 8 + 8

= 16

Thus, the answer for that equation is: 16


Often people remember PEMDAS by saying. (So, I’d advise you think of it like that way as well!)

• Please
• Excuse
• My
• Dear
• Aunt
• Sally


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Does anybody know how to do time with exponential decay
My name is Ann [436]
<span>From the message you sent me:

when you breathe normally, about 12 % of the air of your lungs is replaced with each breath. how much of the original 500 ml remains after 50 breaths

If you think of number of breaths that you take as a time measurement, you can model the amount of air from the first breath you take left in your lungs with the recursive function

b_n=0.12\times b_{n-1}

Why does this work? Initially, you start with 500 mL of air that you breathe in, so b_1=500\text{ mL}. After the second breath, you have 12% of the original air left in your lungs, or b_2=0.12\timesb_1=0.12\times500=60\text{ mL}. After the third breath, you have b_3=0.12\timesb_2=0.12\times60=7.2\text{ mL}, and so on.

You can find the amount of original air left in your lungs after n breaths by solving for b_n explicitly. This isn't too hard:

b_n=0.12b_{n-1}=0.12(0.12b_{n-2})=0.12^2b_{n-2}=0.12(0.12b_{n-3})=0.12^3b_{n-3}=\cdots

and so on. The pattern is such that you arrive at

b_n=0.12^{n-1}b_1

and so the amount of air remaining after 50 breaths is

b_{50}=0.12^{50-1}b_1=0.12^{49}\times500\approx3.7918\times10^{-43}

which is a very small number close to zero.</span>
