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>

Bring the fraction a/a−4 to a denominator of 16−a^2<br><br> really do appreciate this thx
RSB [31]

Answer:

-a(a+4)/(16 - a²)

Step-by-step explanation:

            a/(a - 4)                  Multiply by (a + 4)/(a + 4)

= a(a + 4)/[(a – 4)(a + 4)]     Multiply the denominatorator terms

= a(a + 4)/(a² - 16)               Multiply by -1/(-1)

= -a(a+4)/(-a² + 16)              Reorder terms in denominator

= -a(a+4)/(16 - a²)

3xz(9xy+z)-2yz(x+y-z)
Alisiya [41]

Answer:  27x²yz + 3xz² - 2xy - 2y²z + 2yz²  

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the distributive property.

   3xz(9xy + z)           - 2yz(x + y - z)

= 3xz(9xy)  +  3xz(z)  -2yz(x)   -2yz(y)   -2yz(-z)

=  27x²yz   +   3xz²    -2xy       -2y²z      +2yz²
