The population of the town in 1960 is 48.80 thousands

<h3>How to determine the population in 1950?</h3>

The equation of the model is given as:

f(t) = 42e^(0.015t)

1960 is 10 years after 1950.

This means that:

t = 10

Substitute t = 10 in f(t) = 42e^(0.015t)

f(10) = 42e^(0.015 * 10)

Evaluate

f(10) = 48.80

Hence, the population of the town in 1960 is 48.80 thousands

The table below shows the numbers of tickets sold at a movie theater on Friday.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Number of Adult's tickets sold on Saturday = 3,356

Number of Children's tickets sold on Saturday = 2, 928

Total number of tickets sold over these two days is 8,938.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the number of tickets sold on FRIDAY:

Adult Ticket sold = 1,678

Children's Tickets sold = 976

So, the total number of tickets sold on Friday

= Sum of ( Adult + Children's ) tickets = 1,678 + 976 = 2,654 .... (1)

The number of tickets sold on SATURDAY:

Adult Ticket sold = 2 times as many as the number of adult tickets sold

on Friday

= 1,678 x 2 = 3,356

Children's Tickets sold = 3 times as many as the number of children's

tickets sold on Friday.

= 976 x 3 = 2, 928

So, the total number of tickets sold on Saturday

= Sum of ( Adult + Children's ) tickets = 3,356 + 2,928 = 6, 284 .... (2)

Now, the total number of tickets booked in these two days :

Sum of tickets booked on (Friday + Saturday)

= 2,654 + 6, 284 = 8,938

Hence, total number of tickets sold over these two days is 8,938.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The surface area is equal to $390\ in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the triangular pyramid is equal to the area of its four triangular faces

In this problem

$SA=4[\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)]$

we have

$b=15\ in$

$h=13\ in$

substitute the values

$SA=4[\frac{1}{2}(15)(13)]=390\ in^{2}$
