I believe the answer is 18, because 5x3=15, so we can only assume that N is 6x3=18.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- AB = 192 cm
- AC : CB = 1 : 3
- CD = BC/12
- The distance between midpoints of AD and CB = x
<u>Find the length of AC and CB:</u>
- AC + CB = AB
- AC + 3AC = 192
- 4AC = 192
- AC = 192/4
- AC = 48 cm
<u>Find CB:</u>
<u>Find the length of CD:</u>
- CD = BC/12 = 144/12 = 12 cm
<u>Find the length of AD:</u>
- AD = AC - CD = 48 - 12 = 36 cm
<u>Find the midpoint of AD:</u>
<u>Find the midpoint of CB:</u>
- m(CB) = AC + 1/2CB = 48 + 144/2 = 48 + 82 = 130 cm
<u>Find the distance between the midpoints:</u>
Answer:
Senior citizen tickets = $9
Student tickets = $11
Step-by-step explanation:
We begin by converting these into simultaneous linear equation;
Senior citizen tickets = a
Student tickets = b
5a + 9b = 144
14a + 6b = 192
5a = 144 - 9b
a = 144/5 - 9b/5
a = 28.8 - 1.8b
We now substitute this into the first equation
14(28.8 - 1.8b) + 6b = 192
403.2 - 25.2b +6b = 192
-19.2b = 192 - 403.2
b = -211.2/-19.2
b = 11
Put the value of b into either equation
5a + 9b = 144
5a + 9(11) = 144
5a +99 = 144
5a = 144-99
5a = 45
a = 9
When eggs = 2, then potatoes = 5
Eggs: 2
Potatoes: 5
When that is changed to 6 eggs, 2 needs to be multiplied by a number to get 6.
2 * what = 6 or 6/2=
you get the number 3. A fraction is equivalent to a ratio. So if you have 2*3=6 then you need to multiply 5*3 to get the amount of potatoes you need. the answer is 15 potatoes because 5*3=15.
