Answer:

8 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation to help solve this problem.

Let x represent the smaller number

x+(x+17)=33

2x+17=33

2x=16

x=8

The smaller number is 8

Add 17 to 8

The larger number is 25

in an election an amount of votes was share among parties A,B and C in the ratio of 1:2:4. How many votes party B obtained if pa
spayn [35]

1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the share of votes obtained by the parties A, B and C be x, 2x and 4x respectively.

According to the given information:

No of votes obtained by C = 1500 + No of votes obtained by A

\therefore 4x = 150. + x \\\\\therefore 4x - x = 1500\\\\\therefore 3x = 1500\\\\\therefore x = \frac{1500}{3} \\\\\therefore x = 500\\\\\because Votes \:obtained\: by \:B = 2x \\\\\therefore Votes \:obtained\: by \:B = 2\times 500\\\\\purple {\bold {\therefore Votes \:obtained\: by \:B = 1000}} \\\\

Use the net to determine the total surface area. The net of a prism with width 10 inches, length 5 inches, and height 7 inches i
leva [86]
We are asked to solve for the surface area of the described figure in the problem. We can conclude that the given figure is a rectangular prism since it was being mentioned in the problem that the height is laid flat. Therefore, the formula for the surface area is SA = PH + 2B where "P" stands for the perimeter of the rectangle and "B" stands for the area of the rectangle while "H" is for the height.
Solving for P, we have it:
P = width + length + width + length
P = 10 + 5 + 10 + 5
P = 30 inches
Solving for B, we have it:
B = length * width 
B = 10 * 5
B = 50 inches squared
Solving for the surface area, we have it:
SA = PH + 2B
SA = 30*7 + (2*50)
SA = 310 inches squared

The answer is 310 in2.

A community group bought 30 tickets to an amusement park at a total cost of $810. They bought x student tickets for $25 each and y adult tickets for $30 each.
***
let x=number of student tickets bought
30-x=number of adult tickets bought
..

25x+30(30-x)=810
25x+900-30x=810
5x=90
x=18
30-x=12
number of student tickets bought=18
number of adult tickets bought=12
