Answer:

The answer to your question is there were 88 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total number of people = 188

total cost = $5040

12 more adults than seniors

number of children = ?

adults = a

children = c

Process

1.- Write equations that help to solve this problem

             a + c = 188              Equation l

             a = c + 12                 Equation ll

2.- Solve by substitution. Substitute equation equation ll in equation l

           (c + 12) + c = 188

-Solve for c

            c + 12 + c = 188

            2c + 12 = 188

            2c = 188 - 12

            2c = 176

              c = 176 / 2

              c = 88

3.- Conclusion

There were 88 children

Of the total number of people on a cruise ship, 1/4 or child passengers. 2/5 of the remaining people were crew. There were 1320
Nuetrik [128]
<h2>462</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

       Total number of people on the cruise ship was 1320.

\frac{1}{4}^{th} of the people were child passengers. Number of child passengers = \dfrac{1}{4}\times (\text{Total number of people})=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 1320=330

\frac{2}{5}^{th} of the people were crew. Number of people that were crew = \dfrac{2}{5}\times (\text{Total number of people})=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 1320=528

       Remaining people in the ship constitute the adult passengers.

       Number of adult passengers = (\textbf{Total number of people})-(\textbf{Total number of children})-(\textbf{Total number of crew})=1320-330-528=\textbf{462}

∴ Number of adult passengers = 462

The slope intercept form is y=mx+b. m being the rate of the slope (rise over run) so in this case 2/1, or simply 2. b is the y intercept, or where a line passes through the y intercept, in this case it is -1.

A sphere has a diameter of 14 ft. Which equation finds the volume of the sphere?
aev [14]

Answer:

The volume of the sphere is 1436 in³

The equation is    

V = ⁴⁄₃ * 3.14 * (7ft)³

Step-by-step explanation:

radius = half of diameter

d = 14ft

r = 14ft / 2 = 7ft

To calculate the volume of a sphere we have to use the following formula:

V = volume

r = radius  = 7ft

π = 3.14

V = ⁴⁄₃πr³

we replace with the known values

V = ⁴⁄₃ * 3.14 * (7ft)³

V = 4.187 * 343 in³

V = 1436 in³

The volume of the sphere is 1436 in³
