Answer:
x = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
(This question has already been answered, but both of the incorrect ones were deleted, so for future reference...)
Fig A is a scale image of Fig D. These two quadrilaterals are similar, and thus, the side lengths of corresponding sides are proportional. Set the proportion x/3 = 7.2/4 (you could alternatively write it as x/7.2 = 3/4 but for the simplicity's sake, and assuming anyone who has this problem would already know how to solve proportions like these...)
7.2/4 = 1.8
so
x/3 = 1.8
now multiply both sides by 3 to get x = 5.4
The answer is -83.7418
Rounded to: -83.74
Answer:
$50 per ticket.
Step-by-step explanation:
Although it is tempting to keep raising the price for a higher profit, if you raise the price by too much, people will stop buying tickets and you will not gain as much money as you could have gotten with, say, $50 per plate.
The more you raise the price, the less tickets you can sell.
Hope this helps!
1/5^2 = 1/25
1/5^1 = 1/5
1/5^0 = 1
1/5^-1 = 5
1/5^-2 = 25
