Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparison of these three fractions is easier if you convert them so that all have the same denominator.

"Closer to 1/2 than to 1" implies that the fraction chosen lies between 1/2 and 3/4, that is, between 0.500 and 0.750.

7/8 = 0.875 must be rejected.  It does not satisfy this criterion.  0.875 is NOT closer to 1/2 than it is to 1.

10/12 = 0.833 must be rejected for the same reason.

12/14 = 6/7 must be rejected for the same reason

7/10 = 0.700 satisfies the criterion (it lies closer to 1/2 than it does to 1).

Which equation represents the proportional relationship between the cost, t, in dollars, of p pounds of wood bought? T=0.29pt =
docker41 [41]

Answer:

T = 0.29p

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table Given :

We can obtain the uint cost per pound of wood :

Cost of 12 pounds of wood = $3.48

Cost per pound = Cost / weight

Cost per pound = $3.48 / 12 = $0.29

Hence, the proportional relationship cost, T in dollars and p pounds of wood is ;

Cost = unit cost per pound * number of pounds

T = 0.29 * p

T = 0.29p

If there are tickets sold to children for $5 and $12 to adults, and there are only 400 tickets sold for $3925 then how many chil
Sever21 [200]

125 children tickets were sold

<u>Solution</u>:

Given that  

Price of 1 ticket sold to children = $5

Price of 1 ticket sold to adult = $12

Total number of ticket sold = 400

Amount generated by selling 400 tickets = $3925.

Need to calculate number of ticket sold to children’s

Let’s assume number of tickets sold to childrens = x

So number of tickets sold to adults = 400 – x

Amount generated from x ticket sold to children =x \times \text { Price of } 1 \text { ticket sold to children }

x \times 5=5 x

Amount generated from (400 – x) tickets sold to adults =x \times \text { Price of } 1 \text { ticket sold to adult }

=(400-x) \times 12=4800-12 \mathrm{x}

<em>Total amount generated from 400 tickets = Amount generated from children’s tickets + Amount generated from adults ticket  </em>

= 5x + (4800 – 12x) = 4800 -7x

As given that amount generated = 3965

=> 3965 = 4800 – 7x

Solving above expression to get value of x, we get

7x = 4800 - 3965  

=> 7x = 875

=> x = 125.

Hence number of children tickets sold = 125.
