A class sold tickets for a dance. Student tickets cost $2 and faculty tickets cost $2.50. A total of $450 was collected and 216

tickets were sold. How many faculty tickets were sold?

If all 216 tickets sold were faculty tickets, the revenue would be 216 * 2.5, or $540

The actual revenue collected was $450. The difference between $540 and $450 is $90.

The difference between the student and faculty tickets are $2.50-$2, or .50

$90.00 / .50 = 180 student tickets sold.

That leaves 216-180, or 36 as faculty tickets.

180 student tickets at $2 = $360

36 faculty tickets at $2.50 = $90

$360 + $90 = $450

Find the difference of the LCM and the GCF of 12 & 32
larisa [96]

Answer:

92

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM = 96

12 = 4×3

32 = 4 × 8

then GCF = 4

LCM - GCF = 96 - 4 = 92

Please help this for my pre calculus finals
dsp73

Answer:

a) It will take 17.71 years

b) It will take 17.58 years

c) I will earn $6.60 more in compound continuously

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Lets talk about the compound interest

- The formula for compound interest is A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

, Where:

- A = the future value of the investment, including interest

- P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit)

- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

- t = the time the money is invested

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The money deposit is $2000

∵ The rate is 6.25%

∵ The interest is compound quarterly

∵ The future value is $6000

∴ P = 2000

∴ A = 6000

∴ r = 6.25/100 = 0.0625

∴ n = 4

∴ t = ?

∵ A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

∴ 6000 = 2000 (1 + 0.0625/4)^4t ⇒ divide both sides by 2000

∴ 3 = (1.015625)^4t ⇒ insert ㏑ for both sides

∴ ㏑(3) = ㏑(1.015625)^4t

∵ ㏑(a)^b = b ㏑(a)

∴ ㏑(3) = 4t ㏑(1.015625) ⇒ divide both sides by ㏑(1.015625)

∴ 4t = ㏑(3)/㏑(1.015625) ⇒ divide both sides by 4

∴ t = [㏑(3)/㏑(1.015625)] ÷ 4 = 17.71

* It will take 17.71 years

b) Lets talk about the compound continuous interest  

- Compound continuous interest can be calculated using the formula:

  A = P e^rt  

- A = the future value of the investment, including interest

- P = the principal investment amount (the initial amount)

- r = the interest rate  

- t = the time the money is invested

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The money deposit is $2000

∵ The rate is 6.25%

∵ The interest is compound continuously

∵ The future value is $6000

∴ P = 2000

∴ A = 6000

∴ r = 6.25/100 = 0.0625

∴ t = ?

∵ A = P e^rt  

∴ 6000 = 2000 e^(0.0625 t) ⇒ divide both sides by 2000

∴ 3 = e^(0.0625 t) ⇒ insert ㏑ to both sides

∴ ㏑(3) = ㏑[e^0.0625 t]

∵ ㏑(e^a) = a ㏑(e) ⇒ ㏑(e) = 1 , then ㏑(e^a) = a

∴ ㏑(3) = 0.0625 t ⇒ divide both sides by 0.0625

∴ t = ㏑(3)/0.0625 = 17.5778

* It will take 17.58 years

c) If t = 5 years

# The compound quarterly:

∵ A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

∴ A = 2000 (1 + 0.0625/4)^(4×5)

∴ A = 2000 (1.015625)^20 = $2727.08

# Compound continuously

∵ A = P e^(rt)

∴ A = 2000 e^(0.0625×5) = $2733.68

∴ I will earn = 2733.68 - 2727.08 = $6.60

* I will earn $6.60 more in compound continuously

Solve the equation. Check your solution. - 6y + 5 = 29y - 2​
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

y = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-6y + 5 = 29y + -2

Reorder the terms:

5 + -6y = 29y + -2

Reorder the terms:

5 + -6y = -2 + 29y

Solving

5 + -6y = -2 + 29y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-29y' to each side of the equation.

5 + -6y + -29y = -2 + 29y + -29y

Combine like terms: -6y + -29y = -35y

5 + -35y = -2 + 29y + -29y

Combine like terms: 29y + -29y = 0

5 + -35y = -2 + 0

5 + -35y = -2

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + -35y = -2 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + -35y = -2 + -5

-35y = -2 + -5

Combine like terms: -2 + -5 = -7

-35y = -7

Divide each side by '-35'.

y = 0.2

Simplifying

y = 0.2
