Most of the information's necessary for solving this problem is already given in the question.
Let us assume the number to be = x
Then
25% * x = 19
(25/100) * x = 19
x/4 = 19
x = 19 * 4
= 76
So the unknown number is 76. I hope there is no complexity in the method described above and also the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can use this method for solving similar type of problems in future without requiring any additional help from outside.

The drama club sold $779 worth of tickets to the school play. Student tickets cost $3 a piece and tickets for everyone else cost

svetlana [45]

Answer:

<em>The equation will be: $3s+5t=779$ </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of student tickets that were sold $=s$

and the number of other tickets that were sold $=t$

Student tickets cost $3 a piece and tickets for everyone else cost $5 each.

So, <u>the total cost of</u> $s$ <u>student tickets</u> $=\$3s$ and <u>the total cost of</u> $t$ <u>other tickets</u> $=\$5t$

Given that, the drama club sold <u>total $779 worth of tickets</u>.

So, the equation will be: $3s+5t=779$

Perpendicular to y=2x+9 and has the point (4,-1)

Wewaii [24]

Answer: y = $-\frac{1}{2}$ x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we will find the slope. The slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.

In this case, the first slope is 2. The negative of 2 is -2, and the reciprocal of -2 is $-\frac{1}{2}$ .

Now, we will plug in this new slope, the point given, and solve for the <em>b</em>, or the y-intercept.

y = <em>m</em>x + <em>b</em>

(-1) = ( $-\frac{1}{2}$ )(4) + <em>b</em>

-1 = -2 + <em>b</em>

1 = <em>b</em>

Lastly, we will write our equation.

y = <em>m</em>x + <em>b</em>

y = $-\frac{1}{2}$ x + 1

The line is y = $-\frac{1}{2}$ x + 1, or y = 1 - $\frac{x}{2}$ .

Please help asap! this isn’t too hard but i am still confused.

Answer:

The consecutive even numbers are 28, 30, 32, 34

Step-by-step explanation:

let the four consecutive even numbers be: b d f h,

such that:

b=b, d=b+2, f=b+4, h=b+6.

Therefore, 2(b+b+2)=3(b+6)+14

b=28,

d=(b+2)=30

f=(b+4)=32

h=(b+6)=34
