Answer:

The greatest number of adults who could have purchased tickets is 105.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let  the number of amount of adult tickets sold out be x</em>

Therefore ,

               the number of amount of child tickets sold out be 3 × x

Total amount earned = 7 × x + 4 × 3 × x

                                   = 19 × x

According to the question ,

                                          19 × x ≤ 2000

                                     ⇒ x ≤ 105

Hence,

        The greatest number of adults who could have purchased tickets is 105.

Don went to his favorite restaurant and ordered a meal. His bill came out to $15.77. He wants to pay a 15% tip. How much did he
melamori03 [73]
You want to leave a 15% tip on a meal that cost $15.77.
First, convert the 15% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 15%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "15%" becomes 15% / 100% = 0.15 in terms of a real mathematical number.
Second, you need to find out what 15% of your $15.77 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $15.77, or

0.15 x $15.77=$2.37.
So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $2.37.

This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)

$15.77 + $2.37 = $18.14

$18.14 is your answer

How can I figure out this math problem: Stanley ran a 5 kilometer race in 30 minutes. What was his speed in kilometers per hour?
stiv31 [10]
Since the question is asking for the time units to be in hours, you want to convert 30 minutes to an hour; 0.5

We’re able to use the basic motion formula for velocity to work out this question.

Velocity = distance / time
Velocity = 5 / 0.5
Velocity = 10km/h

Therefore, Stanley’s average speed was 10 kilometres per hour. :)
