Answer:

<u>US$ 1,084.80 were raised from the raffle tickets and US$ 1,035 are the profits after paying the prizes.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for solving the question:

Number of raffle tickets sold = 1,356

Cost of each raffle ticket = US$ 4/5

Number of prizes = 6

Cost of each prize = US$ 8 3/10

2. How much money was raised from the raffle tickets?

For easier calculation, let's convert the fraction numbers to decimal numbers:

Cost of each raffle ticket = US$ 4/5 = US$ 0.80

Cost of each prize = US$ 8 3/10 = US$ 8 + 0.30 = US$ 8.30

Now, we use this formula to calculate how much money was raised and the profits:

Profits = (Number of tickets sold * Cost of each ticket) - (Number of prizes * Cost of each prize)

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Profits = 1,356 * 0.80 - 6 * 8.30

Profits = 1,084.80 - 49.80

Profits = 1,035

<u>US$ 1,084.80 were raised from the raffle tickets and US$ 1,035 are the profits after paying the prizes.</u>

Craig made a mobile using geometric shapes including triangles shaped as shown. For what value of X and Y can you use a triangle
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

x = 3

y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given triangle FGH,

m∠F + m∠G + m∠H = 180° [Triangle sum theorem]

60° + 90° + m∠H = 180°

m∠H = 30°

If the given triangles FGH and TUV are congruent, their corresponding sides will be equal in measure.

m∠F = m∠T

7y + 4 = 60°

7y = 56

y = 8

GH ≅ UV

8x - 12 = 12

8x = 24

x = 3
