Answer:

75 total tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1:

We know that 45 children's tickets have been sold, being 60% of the total tickets having been sold.

So, basically, we solve for x:

We have, 60% × x = 45

or, 60/100 × x = 45

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 60,

we have x = 45 × 100/60

x = 75

If using calculator, enter 45x100/60, which will give you the answer.

------------------------

METHOD 2:

Division is the opposite of multiplication

Start with the formula to calculate the percentage of total

y=value÷ percentage/100

Substitute values in the equation

y=45÷60/100

Simplify and solve

y=45÷0.6

y=75

Both methods give you 75, therefore 75 tickets have been sold

You have $2000 to deposit for 7 years and two account options. The first earns you simple interest at a rate of 4% and the secon

pogonyaev

Answer:

First account (simple interest)

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of interest earned by the first account is ...

I = Prt = $2000·0.04·7 = $2000·0.28 = $560

The amount in the second account at the end of 7 year is ...

FV = P·(1+r)^t = $2000·1.02^7 = $2297.37

so you have earned $297.37 in interest on the second account.

$560 is more than $297, so the First Account (simple interest) earns more money.

Find the distance between the points (-7,-6) and (5,-6) .

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given these two points, (-7,-6) and (5,-6), and we are to find the distance between them.

We know the formula for finding the distance between two points:

Distance = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

So putting in the values of the given coordinates in the above formula to get:

Distance = $\sqrt{(5-(-7))^2+(-6-(-6))^2}$ = $\sqrt{144 + 0} =12$

Therefore, the distance between the two given points is 12 units.

B Write the coordinate of T after a dilation with a scale factor of 1/4 centered at the origin. 1 10 T х -10 0 S U 10 Write your

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

(4, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of a point (x, y) after dilation with a scale factor k,

Rule to be followed,

(x, y) → k(x, y)

→ (kx, ky)

Coordinates of point T are (8, 8).

Dilation of the point T after dilation with a scale factor of $\frac{1}{4}$ will be,

(8, 8) → $\frac{1}{2}(8, 8)$

→ (4, 4)

Therefore, coordinates of the image point B' will be (4, 4).
