Answer:

375 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Add 15%, 50%, and 10% together to get 75%.

2. Subtract 75% from 100% to get 25%.

3. Multiply 1,500 by 0.25 (the decimal equivalent to 25%) to get 375.

4. You can also do it individually by multiplying 15% by 1,500 then 10% by 1,500 and 50% by 1,500 and adding them together and then subtracting it by 1,500. However, this would take much more work.

375 tickets were not comedy, drama, or action.

What you would do is add up all the percents: 15%+10%+50%=75%

Then multiply that by 1500: 1500 x 0.75= 1125

Then you would subtract 1125 from 1500: 1500-1125=375

Calculate 8 ∙ 10-4 divided by 2 ∙ 102. (box after the "10" in answer is for the exponent.). ∙ 10

Korolek [52]

Given problem: $\frac{8*10^{-4}}{2*10^2}$ .

Solution: We can see that first we have 8 and 2 numbers in front of 10's powers.

So, we need to simplify 8 over 2 first.

If we divide 8 by 2, we get 4.

Now, let us work on 10's and their powers.

$10^{-4}$ is being divided by $10^{2}.$

We can apply quotient rule of exponents remaining part.

According to quotient rule of exponents, $\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}$

If we apply same rule, we need to subtract exponents of 10's.

$\frac{10^{-4}}{10^2}=10^{-4-(-2)}$

If we simplify exponent part -4-(-2), it will give us -4+2 =-2.

So, $10^{-4-(-2)}=10^{-2}$

And final answer would be $4 \times 10^{-2}$ .

On average, Donna's Cafe has 84 customers, which represents 24% of the total approved occupancy by the fire department. a. What

Anna11 [10]

Well, let's say is "x", so "x" is the 100%, now if 84 is the 24%, what is "x"?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
84&24\\
x&100
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{84}{x}=\cfrac{24}{100}$

solve for "x".

Answer:

$95,183.04

Step-by-step explanation:

$A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

(i used a calculator but theres the formula^^ T-T)
