The admission fee at a local zoo is $1.50 for children and $3.00 for adults. On a certain day, 2400 people enter the zoo and $4,800.00 is collected. How many children and how many adults?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

c = children

a = adults

2200 people enter the zoo mean :

c + a = 2200

$4,550.00 is collected mean :

1.5 c + 4 a = 4550

Now you must solve system:

c + a = 2200

1.5 c + 4 a = 4550

c + a = 2200 Subtract c to both sides

c + a - c = 2200 - c

a = 2200 - c

1.5 c + 4 a = 4550

1.5 c + 4 ( 2200 - c ) = 4550

1.5 * c + 4 * 2200 - 4 c = 4550

1.5 * c + 8800 - 4 c = 4550

- 2.5 c + 8800 = 4550 Subtract 8800 to both sides

- 2.5 c + 8800 - 8800 = 4550 - 8800

- 2.5 c = - 4250 Divide both sides by - 2.5

c = - 4250 / - 2.5

c = 1700

a = 2200 - c = 2200 - 1700 = 500

1700 children and 500 adults

Proof :

c + a = 1700 = 2200

$ 1.5 * c + $ 4 * a =

$ 1.5 * 1700 + $ 4 * 500 =

$ 2550 + $ 2000 = $ 4550

Answer 2

The number of children and the number of adults are 1600 and 800, respectively.

What is the solution to the equation?

The allocation of weights to the relevant variables that produce the calculation's optimum is referred to as a direct consequence.

A nearby zoo charges $1.50 for kids and $3.00 for adults to enter. 2400 persons visit the zoo on a certain day, and $4,800.00 is gathered.

Let x be the number of children and y be the number of adults. Then the equation is written as,

x + y = 2400           ...1

1.5x + 3y = 4800

x + 2y = 3200    ...2

Subtract equation 1 from equation 1, then

2y - y = 3200 - 2400

y = 800

Then the value of x is calculated as,

x + 800 = 2400

x = 2400 - 800

x = 1600

The number of children and the number of adults are 1600 and 800, respectively.

Wind forms desert pavement through ___.

A. sublimation
B. random acts of kindness
C. deposition
D. erosion

Answers

Answer:

D. erosion

Step-by-step explanation:

The wind is a stronger erosional force in arid regions than it is in humid regions because winds are stronger. In humid areas, water and vegetation bind the soil so it is harder to pick up. In arid regions, small particles are selectively picked up and transported. As they are removed, the ground surface gets lower and rockier, causing deflation. What is left is desert pavement, a surface covered by gravel-sized particles that are not easily moved by wind.

answer this asap please its emergency

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

emergency ? why ? you are in the middle of a game with such an unfair die ?

the probabilty for a number of a regular die is 1/6 (desired cases divided by total possible cases).

the probability to role an even number is therefore 3/6 = 1/2.

that means, even and odd are the 2 possible outcomes.

now, for the unfair die we can see it as if we have now 4 possible outcomes : 3 times an even number, and 1 time an odd number.

so, the probability to roll an even number is 3/4 (and for an odd number 1/4).

now, we roll it twice.

for the sum to be even, we either have to roll 2 even numbers or 2 uneven numbers.

the probabilty is the sum of the both probabilities (it is an exclusive "or" relationship).

the probability to roll 2 even numbers is

3/4 × 3/4 = 9/16

the probability to roll 2 uneven numbers is

1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16

the sum is

9/16 + 1/16 = 10/16 = 5/8

so, E is the right answer.

Answer:

It's a minimum, at (8, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Option 1: you unwrap the square , add like terms, and then recognize it's a parabola and find the coordinates of the vertex.

Or look at it as -3 + something ^2. It means you are adding something positive to -3, so the sum is greater or equal to -3, that is the definition of a minimum. At that point you find the minimum by setting that something equal to 0 (which gives you x = 8) and the value is -3 + 0 = -3

A. 52
B. 158
C. 210
D. 213
E. 218

Answers

Answer:

D. 213

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of black pieces is 5 more than 3 times the white pieces:

b = 3w + 5

Let the number of rounds is x.

Initial number of white nd black pieces:

w = 7x + 3b = 15x + 56

Substitute the values of b and w into first equation and find the value of x:

15x + 56 = 3(7x + 3) + 515x + 56 = 21x + 146x = 42x = 7

Find the number of pieces:

w = 7*7 + 3 = 52b = 3*52 + 5 = 161w + b = 52 + 161 = 213

Correct choice is D

The ratio of trees to shrubs is 5:2. How many shrubs are there for 30 trees?

Answers

Answer:

30:12

Step-by-step explanation:

The beginning ratio is 5:2, trees to shrubs.

For every five trees, there are two shrubs.

So here is how we are going to solve the problem, since we are trying to figure out the amount of shrubs for 30 trees, we are going to divide 30 by 5 then once we've found out the quotient, we are going to multiply the quotient by two to get our amount of shrubs.

30 ÷ 5 = 6

6(2)=12

To conclude, for 30 trees there are 12 shrubs.

The following section is a statement from the rental agreement Tim signed when he rented his car this past weekend.

"Upon checkout, the fuel level of the vehicle will be determined by turning the vehicle on and visually inspecting the fuel gauge. The approximate fuel level will be recorded on the Check-Out sheet and verified with initials by the vehicle Renter. One copy of the Check-Out sheet will be given to the customer. Another copy will be kept with the on-site records of the vehicle.

"The rented vehicle must be returned with a minimum fuel level the same as that indicated on the Check-Out sheet. A vehicle returned with a fuel level less than the approximate level indicated on the Check-Out sheet will be completely refueled with on-site pumps. The price of the fuel used to refuel the vehicle will be added to the Renter's total charge at a cost of $4.50 per gallon plus a $5.00 refueling charge."

Tim forgot to refuel the vehicle when he returned it. His Check-Out sheet indicates that the vehicle had about 1/2 of a tank left. The tanks is now nearly empty.

If it takes 11.75 gallons of gas to refuel the car Tim rented, how much extra should he expect to pay because he forgot to get gas?
a.
$26.44
b.
$31.44
c.
$52.88
d.
$57.88

Answers

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Tim should expect to pay an extra $52.88 because he forgot to refuel the car. option D is correct.

What is Equation?

Two or more expressions with an Equal sign is called as Equation.

The car that Tim rented needed 11.75 gallons of gas to refill to the same fuel level as indicated on the Check-Out sheet.

Since the rental agency charges $4.50 per gallon of gas plus a $5.00 refueling charge, the cost of refueling the car will be:

11.75 gallons x $4.50/gallon + $5.00

= $57.88

Therefore, Tim should expect to pay an extra $57.88 because he forgot to refuel the car. The correct answer is (d).
