100 tickets were sold.
The total amount of the tickets sold is = 5 * 100 = $500. 
First prize given = $100
Second prize worth = $20 * 5 = $100
Total worth of prize + $100 + $100 = $200.
Net amount of tickets sold = $500 - $200 = $300
Expected price of each ticket sold = $300/100 = 3.
Therefore, the real price of each ticket sold is $3.

Use the distance formula to find the distance between each PowerPoint round to the nearest 10th if necessary
natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given by the formula,

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

a). A(-6, -4), B(-3, -1)

Distance between A and B = \sqrt{(-6+3)^2+(-4+1)^2}

                                             = \sqrt{9+9}

                                             = 3√2

                                             = 4.2 units

b). C(3.5, 1), D(-4, 2.5)

Distance between C and D = \sqrt{(3.5+4)^2+(1-2.5)^2}

                                              = \sqrt{58.5}

                                              = 7.65

                                              ≈ 7.7 units

c). Distance between X(5, -5) and Y(-5, 5)

    Distance = \sqrt{(5+5)^2+(-5-5)^2}

                    = \sqrt{200}

                    = 10√2

                    = 14.14

                    ≈ 14.1 units

A quarter has a diameter of 2.4 m . what is it's circumference in cm
Vlad [161]
First lets convert the diameter to cm,
2.4 m equals 240 cm, that is by multiplying 2.4 times 100 because 1 meter has 100 cm
then we need to know how to calculate the circumference, and that is by multiplying pi (3.14) times the diameter of the circumference, that is:
circumference = pi*diameter = 3.14*240
circumference = 753.6 cm
that is the solution

Colby adds 1 2/3 cups of flour to his mixing bowl and then realizes he put too much.He takes 1/4 cup of flour back out of the bo
galben [10]

Answer:

The quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe is  1\frac{5}{12} cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Colby adds 1\frac{2}{3} cups of flour to his mixing bowl and then realizes he put too much.He takes\frac{1}{4} cup of flour back out of the bowl.

We have to find the quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe.

The quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe = Number of flour cups Colby added - number of flour cups Colby taken out.

that is,

Number of flour cups Colby added = 1\frac{2}{3}=\frac{5}{3}

Number of flour cups Colby taken out = \frac{1}{4}

The quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe = \frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{4}

taking LCM, we get, LCM(3,4) =12

The quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe = \frac{20-3}{12}

The quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe = \frac{17}{12}=1\frac{5}{12}

Thus, The quantity of flour need by Colby's recipe is  1\frac{5}{12} cups.
