Answer: A = 27,500, B = 14,200, C = 13,300

Step-by-step explanation:

A = B + C

55,000 = A + B + C

30A + 24B + 18C = 1,405,200

Substitute #2 with A from #1

55,000 = B + C + B + C or 2B + 2C

Now substitute A for #3

30(B + C) + 24B + 18C = 1,405,200

30B + 30C + 24B + 18C = 1,405,200

54B + 48C = 1,405,200

Now multiply are new #2 equation by -24

(2B + 2C = 55,000)*-24

-48B + -48C = -1,320,000

Combine this equation to our new #3

[-48B + (-48C) = -1,320,000] + [54B + 48C = 1,405,200]

6B = 85,200

B = 14,200

Now that we got B we have to continue...

Substitute B in our new #2

2(14,200) + 2C = 55,000

Solve.

28,400 + 2c = 55,000

                     -28,400

2c = 26,600

C = 13,300

Now we can use #1

A + 14,200 + 13,300 = 55,000

A + 27,500 = 55,000

                     -27,500

A = 27,500

(There's also a much simpler way... Divide 55,000 in half to get A automatically.)

Answer:

A= 27500 seats, B= 14200 seats, C= 13300 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

a=b+c

a+b+c=55000 seats

30a+24b+18c=1405200 dollars

substitue a for b+c

b+c+b+c=55000

30(b+c)+24b+18c=1405200

seats 2b+2c=55000 --> divide by 2 on both sides b+c=27500 --> c=27500-b

dollars 30b+30c+24b+18c=1405200 --> 54b+48c=1405200 divide by 6 --> 9b+8c=234200

substitute c for 13750-b

9b+8(27500-b)=234200

9b+220000-8b=234,200

b=14,200 seats

c=27500-b=27500-14200=13300 seats

a=55000-b-c=55000-27500=27500 seats

Which expression is equivalent to (x Superscript 27 Baseline y) Superscript one-third?.
marin [14]

To solve the problem we must know the basic exponential properties.

<h3>What are the basic exponent properties?</h3>

{a^m} \cdot {a^n} = a^{(m+n)}

\dfrac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{(m-n)}

\sqrt[m]{a^n} = a^{\frac{n}{m}}

(a^m)^n = a^{m\times n}

(m\times n)^a = m^a\times n^a

The expression can be written as x^9\sqrt[3]{y}.

Given to us

  • (x^{27}y)^\frac{1}{3}

(x^{27}y)^\frac{1}{3}

Using the exponential property(m\times n)^a = m^a\times n^a,

=(x^{27}y)^\frac{1}{3}\\\\=x^{\frac{27}{3}}\times y^\frac{1}{3}\\\\=x^9\times y^\frac{1}{3}

Using the exponential property \sqrt[m]{a^n} = a^{\frac{n}{m}},

=x^9\times y^\frac{1}{3}\\\\=x^9\times \sqrt[3]{y}\\\\=x^9 \sqrt[3]{y}

Hence, the expression can be written as x^9\sqrt[3]{y}.

Can someone solve this?
romanna [79]

Answer:

u=4

v=2√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The 30-60-90 triangle theorem states that the shortest side of a triangle is half of the hypotenuse, so 2*2=4. So, the hypotenuse, <em>u</em>, is 4.

The longest leg is √3 times greater than the shortest leg, so 2*√3=2√3. So, the longest leg, <em>v</em>, is 2√3.

Abby Mia wants to know how much must be deposited in her local bank today so that she will receive yearly payments of $18,000 fo
muminat
We are not given tables, so will just use the amortization formula.
P=\frac{A*((1+i)^n-1)}{i*(1+i)^n}
where 
P=amount to be deposited today, to be found
A=amount withdrawn each year=18000
i=Annual interest=9%
n=number of years = 20

Substituting values,
P=\frac{A*((1+i)^n-1)}{i*(1+i)^n}
=\frac{18000*((1+0.09)^{20}-1)}{0.09*(1+0.09)^{20}}
