The smallest possible product of these four numbers is 59.0625

<h3>How to find the smallest possible product of these four numbers?</h3>

The equation is given as:

a + b + c + d = 12

The numbers are consecutive numbers.

So, we have:

a + a + 1 + a + 2 + a + 3 = 12

Evaluate the like terms

4a = 6

Divide by 4

a = 1.5

The smallest possible product of these four numbers is represented as:

Product = a * (a + 1) * (a + 2) * (a + 3)

This gives

Product = 1.5 * (1.5 + 1) * (1.5 + 2) * (1.5 + 3)

Evaluate

Product = 59.0625

Hence, the smallest possible product of these four numbers is 59.0625

At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.10 and adult admission is $9.00 .

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

$5.10 X +9.00 Y = 831.60$

We also know that for Wedneday we have two times tickets for adults compared to child so we have

$Y =2x$

And using this condition we have:

$5.10 X + 18 X = 831.60$

And solving for X we got:

$X= \frac{831.60}{23.1}=36$

So then the number of tickets sold for child are 36

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we can set upt the following notation

X = number of tickets for child

Y= number of tickets for adults

And we know that the total revenue for Wednesday was 831.60. So then we can set up the following equation for the total revenue

$5.10 X +9.00 Y = 831.60$

We also know that for Wedneday we have two times tickets for adults compared to child so we have

$Y =2x$

And using this condition we have:

$5.10 X + 18 X = 831.60$

And solving for X we got:

$X= \frac{831.60}{23.1}=36$

So then the number of tickets sold for child are 36

40% of 65.00=0.40×65=26

Could someone check my answer please . Thank you

Elodia [21]

Hello! We will be using the Pythagorean theorum, where a² + b² = c². C is the clanted part of the triangle, and 13² is 169. a = 12, and we are looking for the value of b. 12² is 144. Let's subtract to find b. 169 - 144 is 25. Now, let's find the square root of 25 to find the length. √25 is 5. There. b = 5. The side length of side b is 5. The correct answer is C: 5.
