The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
Answer:
50 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
because it is a parallelogram, angle B = angle D, and angle C = angle A
that means we have 130(2) = 260 degrees that we know.
the total interior angles of a parallelogram = 360
360 - 260 = 100 degrees left. BUT because those are the total amount of angles left, those are angles A and C combined, so you have to divide 100 in half to get the angle A/ angle DAB
100/2 = 50 degrees. hope this helps! leave a question if you are still confused.
"She needs 1.5 cups of flour for 1 batch, but she wants to make 2.5 batches."
This means that she needs 7.5 cups of flour for 5 batches.
Hence, she needs 3.75 cups of flour for 2.5 batches.
Answer:
$8.75
Step-by-step explanation:
A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. The correct option is C.
<h3>What is a Fraction?</h3>
A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25.
A proper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is smaller than the denominator. When a proper fraction is raised to a positive exponent greater than 1, then the product decreases but does not reach 0.
Hence, the correct option is C.
