Assuming that there is a constant price, we can see that if a 1000 pieces cost $20, 10 pieces cost x dollars. The ratio is 1000/20=10/x. Going further, we can see that 500x=10. x = 1/50 dollars or x = 2 cents.

Answer:

10 pieces of candy will cost $0.20 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.

Since we are given three values with one variable, and we also know that this is a ratio problem. Then we can use the Rule of Three technique to solve this problem. This technique as shown in the picture below can help us find the cost of 10 pieces of candy in a simple way.

1000 pieces ⇒ $20

10 pieces ⇒ x

$\frac{10*20}{1000} = x$

$0.20 = x$

Finally, we can see that 10 pieces of candy will cost $0.20 cents

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

student tickets for the football game cost $12 each and adult ticket cost $20 $1,720 was collected for the 120 ticket sold at la

erik [133]

Answer:

85 student tickets and 35 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Howdy!

We know that student tickets cost $12, adult ticket cost $20 and 120 tickets were sold.

So:

$12×A + $20×B = $1,720. Where A and B are the number of student tickets and adult tickets sold, respectively.

Given that 120 tickets were sold in total, we have that:

A + B = 120

So the system of equations to be solved is the following:

$12×A + $20×B = $1,720 (1)

A + B = 120 (2)

Solving for 'A' in equation (2) we get:

A = 120 - B

Substituting this value into equation (1) we get:

$12×(120 - B) + $20×B = $1,720

Solving for 'B' we have:

$12×(120 - B) + $20×B = $1,720

$1,440 - $12×B + $20×B = $1,720

$1,440 + $8×B = $1,720

$8×B = $1,720 - $1,440

$8×B = $280

B = 35 tickets.

Given that B = 35, then A = 120 - 35 = 85 tickets.

So 85 student tickets and 35 adult tickets were sold.

Is 1.2/3 and 1.8/ 4/5 proportional

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2/3 =0.4

4/5 can be written as 0.8

So, 1.8/0.8 = 2.25.

However, 1.8/4/5 is the same as:

1.8/1 ÷ 4/5

Keep Change Flip

1.8/1 x 5/4 = 9/4

(1.8 x 5=9 & 1 x4 =4)

9/4 =2.25

What is the domain of the function y=tan (x/8) Please Help 15 Points

7nadin3 [17]

1. You have the function $y=tan(\frac{x}{8} )$

2. You know that $y=\frac{sinx}{cosx}$ with $cosx\neq 0$ , because the division by zero is not defined. So , $cosx=0$ for $\frac{(2n+1)\pi}{2}$ where $n$ is a integer number.
