Answer:
c = 69 and h = 51
Step-by-step explanation:
You will need two different equations here
use variable c as coffee and variable h as hot chocolate
c + h = 120
1.80c + 3.15h = 284.40
By moving variables, you can alter the first equation
h = 120 - c
Now insert this into the second equation
1.80c + 3.15(120 - c) = 284.40
Multiply
1.80c + 378 - 3.15c = 284.40
Subtract the c
-1.35c + 378 = 284.40
Subtract 378 from both sides
-1.35c = -93.6
Divide both sides by -1.35
c = 69
Then plug into the first equation
69 + h = 120
Subtract 69
h = 51
X=9.3 is the answer to the question
What I did was I subtracted 4500 minus 500 because it was a fee then I divide 4400 by 35 and I got 125 people.
The base is 3+(x), altitude is x so substitute. Now we know the area of a triangle is base X height X 1/2. Substitute again! 1/2 (3+x)(x)=35. Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out the 1/2. Now you have (x)(x+3)=70 and you have to foil out the left side x^2+3x=70. Subtract 70 on both sides x^2+3x-70=0. Find two numbers that multiply to -70 and add to 3. Solve (x+10)(x-7)=0. the x value is 7. since you can't have negative length values. Substitute 7 into 3+x for the base so you know the base is 10 and the height is 7.
Thw answer is 571430 because 28 rounds to 30
