PLEASE HELP!!!!<br> I need to solve for a, b, and c
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

  • 25000 seats in section A
  • 14100 seats in sectin B
  • 10900 seats in section C

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you half the total number of seats are in section A, so you already know that there are 25000 A seats. The revenue from those seats is

... 25000×$25 = $625,000

so the revenue from B and C seats must total

... $1,070,500 - 625,000 = $445,500

If all 25000 of the B/C seats were C seats, the revenue would be

... 25000×$15 = $375,000

The actual revenue from those seats is $445,500 -375,000 = $70,500 more than that. We know each B seat generates $5 more revenue, so there must be ...

... $70,500/$5 = 14,100 . . . . B seats

Then the balance of the 25000 B and C seats are C seats:

... 25,000 - 14,100 = 10,900 . . . . C seats

_____

<em>Alternate Solution Method</em>

The new Brainly answer format requires the answer be supplied before the working. In order to find the answer quickly so that I can fill in that section, I used a matrix method for solving the problem. The problem equations can be written ...

  • a + b + c = 50000
  • a - b - c = 0
  • 25a + 20b + 15c = 1070500

so the augmented matrix is ...

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&1&50000\\1&-1&-1&0\\25&20&15&1070500\end{array}\right]

A graphing calculator can be used to find the solution to this, generally using a function that produces the reduced row-echelon form. The attachment shows the solution using a TI-84 calculator.

___

<em>Comment on the Working</em>

Since the number of A seats is equal to the total of B and C seats, the number of A seats must be half the total number of stadium seats. Having figured that out, the problem is reduced to one of finding the mix of B and C seats that will produce the remaining revenue.

As with many mixture problems, it is convenient to look at differences. Start with the assumption that all of the desired revenue comes from the least contributor. Here, that is C seats. Then figure the difference that using a B seat makes ($20 -15 = $5) and the difference of the actual revenue and the amount that you got by assuming all C seats: 445,500 -375,000 = 70,500. Since replacing a C seat by a B seat adds $5 to the revenue, it is easy to figure the number of such replacements required in order to raise the revenue by $70,500.

If you write the equation for B seats, you find the solution to the equation mirrors this verbal description:

... 20b + 15(25000-b) = 445,500

... 5b = 445,500 - 375000 . . . . simplify, subtract 375000

... b = 70500/5 = 14100

If 30,000 cm2 of material is available to make a box with a square base and an open top, what is the largest possible volume (in
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The largest possible volume of the box is 2000000 cubic meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V), in cubic centimeters, and surface area (A_{s}), in square centimeters, of the box with a square base are described below:

A_{s} = l^{2}+h\cdot l (1)

V = l^{2}\cdot h (2)

Where:

l - Side length of the base, in centimeters.

h - Height of the box, in centimeters.

By (2), we clear h within the formula:

h = \frac{V}{l^{2}}

And we apply in (1) and simplify the resulting expression:

A_{s} = l^{2}+ \frac{V}{l}

A_{s}\cdot l = l^{3}+V

V = A_{s}\cdot l -l^{3} (3)

Then, we find the first and second derivatives of this expression:

V' = A_{s}-3\cdot l^{2} (4)

V'' = -6\cdot l (5)

If V' = 0 and A_{s} = 30000\,cm^{2}, then we find the critical value of the side length of the base is:

30000-3\cdot l^{2} = 0

3\cdot l^{2} = 30000

l = 100\,cm

Then, we evaluate this result in the expression of the second derivative:

V'' = -600

By Second Derivative Test, we conclude that critical value leads to an absolute maximum. The maximum possible volume of the box is:

V = 30000\cdot l - l^{3}

V = 2000000\,cm^{3}

The largest possible volume of the box is 2000000 cubic meters.

A circle has a radius of 18 and a center at (10,-9). Find the equation of the circle.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

(x-10)²+(y+9)²= 324.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question, you will need to substitute these values into the equation of a circle:

(x-h)²+(y-k)²= r²

'h and k' represent the center points, and 'r' represents the radius.

This will result in:

(x-10)²+(y+9)²=324.
