For a National Junior Honor Society Induction Celebration, Ahmed is renting tables and chairs. He wants to have only tables for 4 and tables for 6. The total number of people that can be seated in the school cafeteria with these tables is 160. Write an equation to represent the situation. Let x represent the number of 4 seat tables and y represent the number of 6 seat tables.

This question is based on the concept of linear equation. Therefore, the equation would be, 10x+20y=160 or  25x+10y=160 to represent the situation.

Given:

He wants to have only tables for 4 and tables for 6. The total number of tables is 160.

And x represent the number of 4 seat tables and y represent the number of 6 seat tables.

We need to determined an equation to represent the situation.

Let x represent the number of 4 seat tables and y represent the number of 6 seat tables.

According to the question,

There are different combinations we can make as below,

For example :

10 tables of 4 and 20 tables of 6

or

25 tables of 4 and 10 tables of 6

Therefore, the equation would be, 10x+20y=160  or  25x+10y=160 to represent the situation.

There are different combinations you can do for example

10 tables of 4 and 20 tables of 6

or

25 tables of 4 and 10 tables of 6

so Im not sure which :/ but the equation would be:

10x+20y=160

or

25x+10y=160

there are different combinations of the two so im  not sure T_T

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
