5 + x + (-2) = -8
5 + x - 2 = -8
5 + x = -8 + 2
5 + x = -6
x = - 6 - 5
x = -11

Question:

A cinema can hold 270 people at one performance 5/9 of the seats were occupied of the occupied seats 40% we occupied by concessionary ticket holders.

What is the number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders?.

Answer:

60 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of seats = 270

Occupied Seats = 5/9

Concessionary ticket holders = 40% of occupied Seats

Required

The number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders

First the number of occupied seat has to be calculated.

$Occupied\ Seats = \frac{5}{9} * 270$

$Occupied\ Seats = \frac{1350}{9}$

$Occupied\ Seats = 150$

Next is to determine the number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders.

$Number = 40\%\ of\ occupied\ seats$

$Number = 40\%\ of\ 150$

Convert percentage to decimal

$Number = 0.4 * 150$

$Number = 60$

<em>Hence, 60 seats were occupied by concessionary ticket holders.</em>

A nugget of gold is placed in a graduated cylinder that contains 85 mL of water.the water level rises to 225 mL after the nugget

Rufina [12.5K]

To get the volume of an object, one of the oldest techniques is to fill a container with water of which we know the volume (in this case 85mL), and drop the object in. The water will rise and show a new volume (225mL). If we subtract the old volume (85) from the new volume (225), we will get the volume of the object (225 - 85 = 140).
