If 541 people use the swimming pool and children pay 1.75 dollars and adults pay 2.25 and in total earned was 1041.25 how many children were there

352 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve algebraically using a system of equations

Assign variables

let "a" be the number of adults

let "c" be the number of children    <-- We want to find this

a + c = 541             Equation for number of people

2.25a + 1.75c = 1041.25           Equation for money

Rearrange the equation for people. Isolate the variable you don't want to find.

a = 541 - c

Substitute "541 - c", replacing "a", in the equation for money

2.25a + 1.75c = 1041.25              

2.25(541 - c) + 1.75c = 1041.25               Distribute over brackets

1217.25 - 2.25c + 1.75c = 1041.25               Collect like terms

1217.25 - 0.5c = 1041.25                   Simplified equation

Start isolating "c". Move anything that's not "c" to the right side. Move numbers in reverse BEDMAS order. That means we will add/subtract before dividng/multiplying. When moving a number, do its reverse operation to the entire equation.

1217.25 - 0.5c = 1041.25      Do the reverse of positive 1217.25

1217.25 - 1217.25 - 0.5c = 1041.25 - 1217.25    Subtract 1217.25 on both sides  

-0.5c = -176               Do the reverse of multiplying by -0.5

-0.5c/-0.5 = -176/-0.5               Divide both sides by -0.5

c = 352                Number of children

Therefore, there were 352 children in the pool.

1)is not similar since corresponding sides are not in the same ratio

2)are similar since corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal

hope it will
