First complete the equations below, where A
stands for Adults and S stands for Students.
[?]A + [ ]S = 1,109; A+ S = [ ]

14 ft 7 inches

step-by-step explanation:

since each model inch corresponds to 25 real inches, 7 model inches will correspond to

7×25" = 175"

at 12" per foot, that is 14 feet, 7 inches.

"standard form:

3x2 + 14x − 10 = 0

solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1   = −14 − √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 − 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ −5.296

x2   = −14 + √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 + 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ 0.629

step-by-step explanation:

-1/4 > -1 2/3. -1/4 is greater than -1 2/3 because it is closer to 0 on the number line.
