There were some adults and children at the party. For every 3 adults, there 11 children. There were 32 more children than adults. How many adults were at the party?

12 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Let :

Number of children = x

Number of adult = y

x = 32 + y - - - - - (1)

Ratio of adult to children

3 : 11

x = (11/3)y - - - (2)

Put x = 11/3y in (1)

(11/3)y = 32 + y

11y/3 - y = 32

(11y - 3y) / 3 = 32

11y - 3y = 32 * 3

8y = 96

y = 96/8

y = 12

Hence, number of adults = 12

this doesn't make sense lol

step-by-step explanation:

we are given a graph for system of inequalities.

in order to write the system of inequalities for the given graph, we need to find the inequality for each of the line separately.

let us find the slope of dotted line first.

taking two coordinates on the graph.

let us say (0,0) and (3,1).

let us find the slope of the line now.

slope of the dotted line would be =.

y-intercept of dotted line is y=0 only.

plugging slope m= and b=0 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

.

the line is shaded up of that dotted line.

therefore, for shading up we would take greater than inequality symbol > .

and because it's a dotted line we would take only > symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for dotted line would be

let us take two points (3,1) and (0,4) on the solid line.

slope of the solid line would be =.

for the solid line we have y-intercept b= 4.

plugging slope m= -1 and b=4 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

y = -1x + 4.

the line is shaded down of that solid line.

therefore, for shading down we would take less than inequality symbol < .

and because it's a solid line we would take ≤ symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for solid line would be
