Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

She bought 18 ride tickets at $0.75 per ticket, so she spent 18 * $0.75 = $13.50 on rides. She spent a total of $33.50 for only admission and rides.

$33.50 - $13.50 = $20

Admission is $20.

(a) Let y represent total cost. Let x represent the number of ride tickets.

(b) y = 0.75x + 20

x ride tickets cost 0.75x.

Admission is a fixed 20.

Adding the cost of ride tickets, 0.75x, to the admission cost, 20, gives you the total cost, y.

If (x+2) is a factor of x^3-6x^2+kx+10, k=

Alja [10]

If a binomial $(x-a)$ is a factor of a polynomial, then $a$ is a root of this polynomial.

$(x+2)=(x-(-2)) \Rightarrow a=-2\\\\
(-2)^3-6\cdot(-2)^2+k\cdot(-2)+10=0\\
-8-24-2k+10=0\\
-2k=22\\\
\boxed{k=-11}

The radius of this ball is 15 inches. Which equation gives the ball's surface area, in square inches?

victus00 [196]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{S.A.=4500\pi\ in^2\approx14130\ in^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a surface area of a ball (sphere):

$S.A.=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3$

R - radius

We have R = 15in. Substitute:

$S.A.=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi(15^3)=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi(3375)=4500\pi\ in^2$

If you want to get an approximation, then:

$\pi\approx3.14\\\\S.A.\approx(4500)(3.14)=14130\ in^2$

Which calculation could not be used to find the percentage change

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Option (B).

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage change between two numbers a and b can be calculated by the formula,

% change = $\frac{|b-a|}{a}\times 100$

Where, (b - a) = Change in values

a = Initial value

If a = 16 and b = 20

Percentage change between 16 and 20 will be,

= $(\frac{20-16}{16})\times 100$

= $\frac{4}{16}\times 100$

= 25%

If a = 20 and b = 16,

Percentage change = $\frac{|16-20|}{20}\times 100$

= 20%

Therefore, %change between 16 and 24 may be 16% or 20%.

Option (A),

$\frac{20-16}{16}\times 100$ = 25%

Option (B),

$\frac{20}{16}-1\times 100$ = 1.25 - 1 × 100

= 1.25 - 100

= -98.75%

Option (C),

$100\times \frac{1}{4}$ = 25%

Option (D),

$\frac{(20-16)}{20}\times 100$ = 20%

Therefore, we can not use the calculation used in Option (B).
