Hi there! The answer is 72 guests.

To find our answer we need to set up and solve an equation. Let the total number of guests be represented by g. The cost per guest is $13.50
Therefore the cost for all of the guests will be $13.50 × g.

To find the total cost we need to add the additional fee of $540 to cover linens and tableware.

Now we've found our equation.
13.5g + 540 = 1512

Subtract 540.
13.5g = 972

Divide by 13.5
g = \frac{972}{13.5} = 72

Therefore, there are 72 guests. The answer is 72.
~ Hope this helps you!

Find y.<br> Round to the nearest tenth:<br> 290<br> 500 ft<br> y<br> X<br> y = [ ? ]ft
hjlf

Answer:

  • y = 242.4
  • x = 437.3

First find the inner angle:

  • 90° - 29°
  • 61°

[ given hypotenuse = 500 ft ]

using sine rule:

\sf sin(x)= \dfrac{opposite}{hypotensue}

\hookrightarrow \sf sin(61)= \dfrac{x}{500}

\hookrightarrow \sf x=sin(61)*500

\hookrightarrow \sf x=437.3

using pythagoras theorem:

  • a² + b² = c²
  • y² + (437.3)² = 500²
  • y = √58760.1
  • y = 242.4
