A.
To solve, you need to get the variable by itself.
Order of operations:
Square root both sides.
(x-5)= plus/minus root 3, as 3 is not a perfect square.
Now you need to add 5 to both sides to get it to disappear on the side with the x.
x=root3 +or - 5, which can be rearranged so that 5 is the first term.
4c+5.6d=1360
Let
Children (c)=x
Adults (d)=284-x
4x+5.6 (284-x)=1360
Solve for x
4x+1590.4-5.6x=1360
4x-5.6x=1360-1590.4
-1.6x=-230.4
X=230.4÷1.6
X=144 children
284−144=140 adults
