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

Answer:

5th term of sequence = -18

nth term of the sequence = -5n + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference between successive and previous term of the output,

T_{2}-T_{1} = -3 - 2

           = -5

Similarly, T_{3}-T_{2}=-8-(-3)

                            = -5

There is a common difference 'd' = (-5)

Therefore, the sequence formed will be an arithmetic sequence.

First term of the sequence 'a' = 2

Explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence, T_{n} = a + (n - 1)d  [n = input value]

T_{n} = 2 + (n - 1)(-5)

    = 2 - 5n + 5

    = -5n + 7

5th term of this sequence,

T_{5}=2+(5-1)(-5)

    = 2 - 20

    = -18

Therefore, 5th term of sequence = -18

                  nth term of the sequence = -5n + 7

You work forty hours a week at a furniture store. You receive a 1,200 dollar weekly salary, plus a 4.1% commision on sales over
Pachacha [2.7K]
If you call x the total value of the sales, the sale over 12,000 will be: g(x) = 12,000 - x.

And the commission is 4.1% of that = 0.041 * (12,000 - x) = 0.041 * g(x)

So, if  f(x) = 0.041x, to calculate the commission you first have to calculate g(x) = 12,000 - x, and the f(g(x))=0.041[12,000 - x].

Which leads you to the solution for the commission as [f o g] (x) = f (g(x)) = 0.041 (12,000 - x).

Answer: [ f o g] (x)
