Answer: There are 69 adults and 72 children went to the concert.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of adults, and y be the number of children.
x + y = 141
3.5x + 2.5y = 421.5
x + y =141
x = 141 - y
3.5(141 - y) + 2.5y = 421.5
493.5 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 421.5
493.5 - y = 421.5
-y = -72
y = 72
x + y = 141
x + 72 = 141
x = 69
I have no idea I’m doing the same thing rn but good luck bro bro
Answer:
x = 2
x = -3/2 or -1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
For this, I would use the "slip and slide" method. LOL I know the name is cheesy, but that's what my teacher called it!
First, you "slip" the coefficent of the leading term (2) to the constant, and multiply.
The equation becomes:
x² - x - 6(2) = 0
x² - x - 12 = 0
Then, you factor this out by looking at the second and third terms. You're looking for 2 factors of -12 that would add up to -1 ( the coefficent of the second term).
Automatically, think of 3 and 4, because the difference between them is 1.
The factors must be (x-4) and (x+3) because they multiple to -12, and add up to -1.
This step is extremely important! Lol I used to forget it a lot, but make sure you divide the constant in each factor by the original number you "slipped".
It would become (x-(4/2))(x+3/2) = (x-2)(x+3/2)
With (x+3/2), you don't want to leave it as a fraction or decimal. It's equivalent to (2x+3). However, the informal form is easier to identify the value of x.
A is 4 and b is 63 have a good day
