The <em><u>correct answers</u></em> are:

The inequality is 75+4t ≥ 400, and they must sell at least 82 tickets.

Explanation:

t is the number of tickets sold. They start out with $75, so that is where our inequality begins. Each ticket is $4; this gives us the expression 4t. Together with the $75 carry over, we have 75+4t.

They must make at least $400 to pay for the dance. This means it must be more than or equal to 400; this gives us 75+4t ≥ 400.

To solve this, first subtract 75 from each side:

75+4t-75 ≥ 400-75

4t ≥ 325

Divide both sides by 4:

4t/4 ≥ 325/4

t ≥ 81.25

We cannot sell a portion of a ticket, so we round. While mathematically this number would "round down," if they only sell 81 tickets, they will not have enough money. Therefore we round up to 82.

Let

t---------> represent the number of tickets sold

Part a) Write an inequality to determine how many tickets must be sold to pay for this year's dance

we know that

4t+75 \geq 400\\ 4t \geq (400-75)\\ 4t \geq 325\\ t \geq 325/4\\ t \geq 81.25

therefore

the answer Part a) is

The inequality to determine how many tickets must be sold to pay for this year's dance is equal to t \geq 81.25

Part b) What is the minimum whole number of tickets that must be sold to fund the dance?

if

t \geq 81.25

then

the minimum whole number is 82

therefore

the answer Part b) is

82

Cylinder A has a radius of 10 inches and a height of 5 inches. Cylinder B has a volume of 750π. What is the percentage change in
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

50% change in volume

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes.</h2>

In this problem we are to find the volume of the first  cylinder and compare with the second cylinder.

Given data

Volume v =  ?

Diameter d= ?

Radius r =  10 in

Height h=  5 in

we know that the volume of a cylinder is expressed as

volume = \pi r^{2}h

Substituting our given data we have

volume = \pi*10^{2}*5\\ volume= \pi *100*5\\volume= 500\pi in^{3} \\

The first cylinder as a volume of 500\pi

The change in volume is 750\pi - 500\pi = 250\pi

percentage = \frac{250\pi }{500\pi } *100

percentage=0.5*100= 50%
