a)Total number of fruit Brian bought in terms of x= 2x+3

b)Total money spent by Brian on the fruit= 0.9x+1.5

c)cost of each pear= (0.9x+1.5)/12

Step-by-step explanation:

As provided Brian got “x” apples and unknown quantity of oranges. However, amount of oranges bought was 3 more than apples

a). Hence the total number of fruit Brian bought in terms of x= no of apple +no of oranges

=x+x+3 (since he brought 3 oranges than apples. If apple is “x”, then oranges = “x+3”)

=2x+3

b). Total money spent by Brian on the fruit.  

Total amount spent on apples= (cost of one apple* no of apples) + (cost of one orange * no of oranges)

Given Apples cost .40 and Oranges .50

=.4x+.5(x+3)

=0.9x+1.5

c). cost of 12 pears matches the total cost of the apples and oranges-

cost of each pear= total money spent on apples and oranges/no of pears bought

=(0.9x+1.5)/12

The height of the tunnel 5 feet from the edge is 13.82 feet option second 13.82 feet is correct.

<h3>What is an ellipse?</h3>

An ellipse is a locus of a point that moves in a plane such that the sum of its distances from the two points called focus adds up to a constant. It is taken from the cone by cutting it at an angle.

We have:

A tunnel is constructed with a semi-elliptical arch. The width of the tunnel is 60 feet, and the maximum height at the center of the tunnel is 25 feet.

2a = 60 (width of the tunnel is 60 feet)

a = 30

And the maximum height at the center of the tunnel is 25 feet

b = 25

Let's assume the center of the ellipse is at the origin.

So the equation of the ellipse:

\rm \dfrac{x^2}{30^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{25^2}=1

Now plug x = a - 5 = 30 - 5 = 25

\rm \dfrac{25^2}{30^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{25^2}=1

After solving:

\rm \dfrac{y^2}{25^2}=1-\dfrac{25}{36}

\rm y^2=\dfrac{6875}{36}

y = ±13.819 ≈ ±13.82

Height cannot be negative

y = 13.82 feet

Thus, the height of the tunnel 5 feet from the edge is 13.82 feet option second 13.82 feet is correct.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

23.75

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 2 adults and adult tickets cost $5.50 so we do

5.50 x 2 = 11

Now we have to find student tickets and we can see we have 3 so we do

4.25 x 3 = 12.75

so then we add them all up

11 + 12.75

which we will get 23.75
