The two stadiums with the largest capacities are Marshfield Stadium and Bowden Stadium. Marshfield Stadium has a capacity of 7,675 more than Bowden. If the combined capacity for the two stadiums is 210,355, find the capacity for each stadium.

Capacity of Marshfield Stadium is 109,015 and capacity of Bowden is Bowden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Capacity of Marshfield Stadium.

y = Capacity of Bowden.

As per given, we have

x - y = 7,675               (i)

x+y  =  210,355               (ii)

2x = 218030    (iii)

Put value of x in (i) , we get

109015 - y = 7675

⇒ y= 109015 - 7675

⇒ y= 101,340

Hence, capacity of Marshfield Stadium is 109,015 and capacity of Bowden is Bowden.

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
