A broadway theatre has 500 seats, divided into orchestra, main, and balcony seating. Orchestra seats sell for $40, main seats fo

r $25, and balcony seats for $20. If all the seats are sold, the gross revenue to the theatre is $13,150. If all the main and balcony seats are sold, but only half the orchestra seats are sold, the gross revenue is $11,150. How many are there of each kind of seat?

Answer:

How many are there of each kind of seat?

orchestra 100, main 230, and balcony 170

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Orchestra seats

y = Main seats

z = Balcony seats

x + y + z = 500

:

If all the seats are sold, the gross revenue to the theatre is $13,150."

40x + 25y + 20z = 13150

:

"but if only half the orchestra seats are sold, the gross revenue is $11,150."

(40÷2)x) + 25y + 20z = 11150

20x + 25y + 20z = 11150

use elimination on these two equations

40x + 25y + 20z = 13150

20x + 25y + 20z = 11150

20x = 2000

x = 2000÷20

x = 100 orchestra seats

100 + y + z = 500

y + z = 500 - 100

y + z = 400

25y + 20z = 9150

20y + 20z = 8000

5y = 1150

y = 1150÷5

y = 230 Main seats

100 + 230 + z = 500

z = 500 - 330

z = 170 Balcony seats

Calculate the perimeter and area of the triangle formed by the coordinates K (-4,-1) ,L(-2, 2), and M (3,-1).
Y_Kistochka [10]

Perimeter = 16.4 units

Using the heron's formula, Area ≈ 10.4 units².

<h3>What is the Heron's Formula?</h3>

The heron's formula is used to find the area of a triangle with known side lengths of all its three sides, a, b, and c. The heron's formula is given as: Area = √[s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)], where s = half the perimeter of the triangle

s = (a + b + c)/2.

Given the following:

K (-4,-1) ,

L(-2, 2),

M (3,-1)

Use the distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}, to find KL, LM, and KM.

KL = √[(−2−(−4))² + (2−(−1))²]

KL = √13 ≈ 3.6 units

LM = √[(−2−3)² + (2−(−1))²]

LM = √34 = 5.8 units

KM = √[(−4−3)² + (−1−(−1))²]

KM = √49 = 7 units

Perimeter = 3.6 + 5.8 + 7 = 16.4 units

Semi-perimeter (s) = 1/2(16.4) = 8.2 units

KL = a ≈ 3.6 units

LM = b = 5.8 units

KM = c = 7 units

s = 8.2

Plug in the values into √[s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)]

Area = √[8.2(8.2 - 3.6)(8.2 - 5.8)(8.2 - 7)]

Area = √[8.2(4.6)(2.4)(1.2)]

Area = √108.6336

Area ≈ 10.4 units²

The sum of three prime numbers (other than two) is always odd.
grandymaker [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement in the above question is True.

Sum of three prime numbers (other than  two)  is always odd.

Going by Christian Goldbach number theory ,

  • Goldbach stated that every odd whole number greater than 5 can be written as sum of three prime numbers .  

 Lets take an example,

  • 3 + 3 + 5 = 11
  • 3 + 5 + 5 = 13
  • 5 + 5 + 7 = 17

Later on in 2013  the Mathematician <u>Harald Helfgott</u> proved this theory true for all odd numbers greater than five.

A florist can make a grand arrangement in 18 minutes or a simple arrangement in 10 minutes. The florist makes at least twice as
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of simple arrangements and y be the number of grand arrangements.

1. The florist makes at least twice as many of the simple arrangements as the grand arrangements, so

x\ge 2y

2. A florist can make a grand arrangement in 18 minutes =\dfrac{3}{10} hour, then he can make y arrangements in \dfrac{3}{10}y hours.

A florist can make  a simple arrangement in 10 minutes =\dfrac{1}{6} hour, so he can make x arrangements in \dfrac{1}{6}x hours.

The florist can work only 40 hours per week, then

\dfrac{3}{10}y+\dfrac{1}{6}x\le 40

3. The profit on the simple arrangement is $10, then the profit on x simple arrangements is $10x.

The profit on the grand arrangement is $25, then the profit on y grand arrangements is $25y.

Total profit: $(10x+25y)

Plot first two inequalities and find the point where the profit is maximum. This point is point of intersection of lines x=2y and \dfrac{3}{10}y+\dfrac{1}{6}x=40

But this point has not integer coordinates. The nearest point with two integer coordinates is (126,63), then the maximum profit is

\$(10\cdot 126+25\cdot 63)=\$2,835
