Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they sold 75% of the raffle tickets and the total is 100 raffle tickets, you simply need to find 75% of 100. To find x% of a, you simply convert x% to a decimal by dividing by 100 and then multiplying it by a. So the general formula to find x% of a would be: $a*\frac{x}{100}$ . In this case a=100, and x=75. So you have the equation: $100*\frac{75}{100} = \frac{100 * 75}{100}=\frac{75}{1} = 75$

Answer: 75 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

- percentages are out of 100, they are a rate, number, or amount in each hundred

- for example, (10/100) x 100 (because it’s out of 100) = 10%
- or it could be (6/40) x 100 (because it’s out of 100) = 15%

- so because they started with 100 tickets, it’s just (75/100) x 100 =75

hope this helps :)

Sin^2(x/2)=sin^2x <br> Find the value of x

Veronika [31]

$\sin^2\dfrac x2=\sin^2x$
$\dfrac{1-\cos x}2=1-\cos^2x$
$1-\cos x=2-2\cos^2x$
$2\cos^2x-\cos x-1=0$
$(2\cos x+1)(\cos x-1)=0$
$\implies\begin{cases}2\cos x+1=0\\\cos x-1=0\end{cases}$ $\implies\begin{cases}\cos x=-\frac12\\\cos x=1\end{cases}$

The first case occurs in $0\le x$ for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3$ and $x=\dfrac{4\pi}3$ . Extending the domain to account for all real $x$ , we have this happening for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3+2n\pi$ and $\dfrac{4\pi}3+2n\pi$ , where $n\in\mathbb Z$ .

The second case occurs in $0\le x$ when $x=0$ , and extending to all reals we have $x=2n\pi$ for $n\in\mathbb Z$ , i.e. any even multiple of $\pi$ .

Tom opened a lemonade stand to earn money to buy a new bike for $200. He sells a cup of lemonade for $1.00. On the first day he

tia_tia [17]

1 - 8

2 - 16

3 - 32

x - +200

Each lemonade has a profit of $1, so the number of cups of lemonade he sells is the same as the amount of dollars he has. You just need to add each previous day's total to the next day's, doubling the amount of cups from the previous day's for each new day.

4 - (32 x 2 = ) 64

8 + 16 + 32 + 64 = 120. We need at least $80 dollars more, so we continue.

5 - (64 x 2 = ) 128

120 + 128 = $248.00 That's more than enough, so Tom will have enough money for his bike after the fifth day of selling lemonade.

Bob's Skate Shop had a profit of $3,563 during the month of August. The company models its profit using P=x^2+10x-12

Vladimir79 [104]

$x^2+10x-12 =3563 \\ x^2+10x-12 -3563=0 \\ x^2+10x-3575=0 \\ D=b^2-4ac=10^2-4*1*(-3575)=100+14300=14400 \\ x_{1,2}= \frac{-bб \sqrt{D} }{2a}= \frac{-10б \sqrt{14400} }{2}= \frac{-10б 120 }{2} \\ x_1= -65 \ \ \ \O \\ x_2=55$

The company sold 55 skateboards.
