seven times the number of male students (m) is the number of female students (f) in a classroom.​

Sagot :

Given:

adults = x

male = 7x + 1

female = (7x + 1)/2

total number of people = 82

x + (7x + 1) + [(7x +1)/2] = 82

2x/2 + (14x + 2)/2 + (7x + 1)/2 = 82

2x + 14x + 2 + 7x + 1 = 82 * 2

23x + 3 = 164

23x = 164 - 3

23x = 161

x = 161/23

x = 7

adults = x = 7

males = 7x + 1 = 7(7) + 1 = 49 + 1 = 50

females = (7x+1)/2 = 50/2 = 25

7 + 50 + 25 = 82
