Answer:

girls = 90

boys = 125

adults = 20

Detailed explanation:

Total attendees at the summer camp = 235

Let

girls = x

boys = x + 35

adults = x - 70

Total attendees = girls + boys + adults

235 = x + (x + 35) + (x - 70)

235 = x + x + 35 + x - 70

235 = 3x - 35

Add 35 to each side

235 + 35 = 3x

270 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

x = 270/3

= 90

x = 90

girls = x = 90

boys = x + 35

= 90 + 35

= 125

adults = x - 70

= 90 - 70

= 20

Total = 90 + 125 + 20

= 235

For three consecutive years, Sam invested some money at the start of the year. The first year, he invested x dollars. The second
AnnZ [12381]

Let’s define x as the amount invested by Sam in the first year.
Here are the corresponding expressions derived from the provided descriptions for Sam's investments.

For Sam:
2nd year: investment = 5x/2 - 2000
3rd year: investment = x/5 + 1000

The total Sam invested is:
x + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000)

Next, we can form the expressions for Sally’s investments.
For Sally
1st year: investment = 3x/2 - 1000
2nd year: investment = 2x - 1500
3rd year: investment = x/4 + 1400

Thus, Sally's total investment is,
total = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)

Setting both totals equal gives us:
(x) + (5x/2 - 2000) + (x/5 + 1000) = (3x/2 - 1000) + (2x - 1500) + (x/4 + 1400)

Solving for x,
x = 2000
For Sally's investment for the third year:
investment = x/4 + 1400 = (2000/4 + 1400) = 1900

RESULTS:
Sam's first year = $2000
Sally's third year = $1900

How many solutions does the equation sin(5x) = 1/2 have on the interval (0, 2PI]
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

Sin(5x) = ½

5x = arcSin(½)

5x = 30°

Then,

The general formula for sin is

5θ = n180 + (-1)ⁿθ

Dividing throughout by 5

θ = n•36 + (-1)ⁿ30/5

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

The solution range is

0<θ<2π which means 0<θ<360

First solution

When n = 0

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿθ

θ = 0×36 + (-1)^0×6

θ = 6°

When n = 1

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36-6

θ = 30°

When n = 2

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×2 + 6

θ = 78°

When n =3

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×3 - 6

θ = 102°

When n=4

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×4 + 6

θ = 150

When n=5

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×5 - 6

θ = 174°

When n = 6

θ = 36n+ (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×6 + 6

θ = 222°

When n = 7

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×7 - 6

θ = 246°

When n =8

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×8 + 6

θ = 294°

When n =9

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×9 - 6

θ = 318°

When n =10

θ = 36n + (-1)ⁿ6

θ = 36×10 + 6

θ = 366°

When n = 10 surpasses the θ range

Thus, the solutions range from n =0 to n=9

Therefore, there are 10 solutions within the interval 0<θ<2π
