Cross multiply

10/a = 15/30

10/a(a)(30) = 15/30(30)(a)

Simplify

1/a(a) = 1
15/30(30) = 15

10(30) = 15(a)

Simplify. Combine terms

300 = 15a

Isolate the a. Divide 15 from both sides

300/15 = 15a/15

a = 300/15

a = 20

A) a = 20 is your answer

Hello!

To solve this we will cross multiply the first numerator by the second denominator and then divide by the other value you have besides a, which in our case is 15.

10(30)=300

300/15=20

Therefore, A=20.

I hope this helps!

Can you walk me through the steps: 3t+2+2t-4t=3+5
neonofarm [45]
To find t? yes.

First, you combine like terms so 3t and 2t and 4t. Add 3 and 2 and then subtract the 4. you will end up with 1t (just t) +2. you cannot add the 2 because it does not have the variable t. on the other side, you will also combine like terms. so 3+5=8. now your equation is t+2=8. this is the part where you will try to get t by itself. subtract the 2 from the left side. but in order for the equation to stay equal to itself, you have to subtract 2 from the right side as well. this will leave you with your final answer of t=6.

A stadium can hold 20,000 people when it is full. The table below shows the
Kisachek [45]
If full then the stadium could have held 60000 people over 3 days.
It really held 17563+18126+16618 over the 3 days = 52307 people. To work out the difference 60000 - 52307 = 7693
Therefore 7693 seats were free over the 3 day period and so 7693 more people could have attended the concerts overall
