You didn't specify how big the festival is. so i can't find the answer.....but i will try
first let's devide 10,000 by 0.9 to see how many square metres we need, to fit 10,000 people
10,000÷0.9=11,111 square meters
we need atleast 11,111 meters of land for a safe festival
Paul needs to invest $10000 at 6% interest and $30000 at 10% interest to make a total of 9% return on his $40000.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Suppose, the amount of money at 6% interest is
As Paul has total $40000 to invest, so the amount of money at 10% interest will be: 
His intent is to earn 9% interest on his $40000 investment. So, the equation will be......

So, Paul needs to invest <u>$10000 at 6% interest</u> and ($40000- $10000) or <u>$30000 at 10% interest </u>to make a total of 9% return on his $40000.
Answer:
1370
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Given</h3>
- AP with d= 7 and a₂₂ = 149
<h3>To find</h3>
<h3>Solution</h3>
<u>First, let's get the value of the first term:</u>
- aₙ = a + (n-1)d
- a₂₂ = a + 21d
- 149 = a + 21*7
- a = 149 - 147
- a= 2
<u>Next, let's find the sum of the first 20 terms</u>
- Sₙ = 1/2n(2a+ (n-1)d)
- S₂₀ = 1/2*20(2*2 + 19*7) = 10(4 + 133) = 10*137 = 1370
<u>Answer is</u> 1370
