A Broadway theater has 400 ​seats, divided into​ orchestra, main, and balcony seating. Orchestra seats sell for $ 80 comma main
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

80 orchestra seats

180 main seats

140 balcony seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of seats = 400

Orchestra seats sell for $80

Main seats sell for $65

Balcony seats sell for $40

If all the seats are sold, gross revenue = $23,700

If all the main seats and balcony seats are sold but only half of the orchestra seats are sold, the gross revenue = $20,500

Let x = Orchestra seats

Let y = main seats

Let z = balcony seats

x+y+z= 400............. (1)

Orchestra seats sell for $80, Main seats sell for $65 and bslcony seats sell for $40. The gross revenue if all the seats are sold = $23,700

80x + 65y + 40z = 23,700 ........(2)

If half of the orchestra seats are sold while all main and balcony seats are sold, we have

80(0.5x) + 65y+ 40z = 20,500

40x + 65y + 40z = 20,500 .....(3)

we have the simultaneous equations

x+y+z= 400............. (1)

80x + 65y + 40z = 23,700 ........(2)

40x + 65y + 40z = 20,500 .....(3)

Using elimination method to solve equation 2 and 3, we subtract equation 3 from 2

40x = 3200

x = 3200/40

x = 80 orchestra seats

Put x= 80 into equation 1 and 2

From equation 1,

x +y+z = 400

y + z = 400 - x

y+z = 400 -80

y+z = 320 .........(4)

From equation 2,

80x + 65y + 40z = 23,700

80(80) + 65y +40z = 23,700

6400 + 65y + 40z = 23,700

65y+40z = 23,700 - 6400

65y + 40z = 17,300 .........(5)

Multiply equation (4) by 40 and equation (5) by 1

So we have

40y + 40z = 12,800

65y + 40x = 17,300

subtract both equations from each other. we have

-25y = -4500

y = -4500/-25

y = 180 main seats

Put x = 80 and y= 180 into equation (1)

80+180+z = 400

260 + z = 400

z = 400-260

z = 140 balcony seats

1.Your primary job’s gross income is $3,500.00/month, and your second job’s realized income is $368.49/month. Deductions are FIC
bazaltina [42]
Part 1
Total income per month = $3,500+$368.49 = $3,868.49
Total deductions = 7.65%+10.75%+8.35% = 26.75% = 0.2675

Net income = Total income - Deductions = Total deductions (1-0.2675) = $3,868.49 (1-0.2675) = $2,833.67

Part 2
Fixed expenses = $1,035.65 which is 36% of realized income.

Then, if realized income is 100%;
$1,035.65 ------------------ 36%
$ Realized income ----- 100%
Therefore,
Realized income = 1,035.65*100/36 = $2,876.81

A building engineer analyzes a concrete column with a circular cross section. the circumference of the column is 18 \pi18π18, pi
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Answer: The area of the cross section is 81pi meters.

Since we are given the circumference, we can write and solve an equation about the diameter.

C = pi(d)
18pi = pi(d)
18 = d

Since the diameter is 18, the radius is half of that or 9 meters.

Now, plug 9 as the radius into the area formula.

A = pi(r^2)
A = pi(9^2)
A = 81pi

Tarinda's corn plant was 7- 1/3 inches tall at the end of Week 1. The corn plant was 18 1/2 inches tall at the end of Week 2. Ho
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The corn plant grew by 11.17 inches during week 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

7 and 1/3 inches tall at the end of Week 1.

The height at the end of week 1, as a simple fraction, is:

7 + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3*7 + 1}{3} = \frac{22}{3}

The corn plant was 18 1/2 inches tall at the end of Week 2.

At the end of week 2, the height will be of:

18 + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{18*2+1}{2} = \frac{37}{2}

How many inches did the corn plant grow during Week 2?

Height at the end of week 2 subtracted by the height at the end of week 1. So

\frac{37}{2} - \frac{22}{3} = \frac{3*37-2*22}{6} = \frac{67}{6} = 11.17

The corn plant grew by 11.17 inches during week 2.
