Answer: they need to sell 70 tickets in order to recover all of the costs for the facility.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of tickets that they will sell.

The council pays $420 to rent a local firehouse for the evening. The council must also pay $2 per guest that attends for insurance. This means that the total cost of admitting x guests would be

2x + 420

If the council charges $8 per ticket for the dance, then the revenue that would be generated from admitting x guests would be 8x.

The number of tickets they need to sell in order to recover all of the costs for the facility would be

8x = 2x + 420

8x - 2x = 420

6x = 420

x = 420/6

x = 70

A projectile is launched from ground level with an initial velocity of v 0 feet per second. Neglecting air​ resistance, its heig
Over [174]

Answer:

After 3 seconds while going up and 6 seconds while coming down

Step-by-step explanation:

Since projectile is launched from ground level with an initial velocity of v 0 feet per second, initial height =0

Height is given by

h(t) = -16t^2+144t where v0 = initial velocity = 144

a) When h =288 ft.

288 = -16t^2+144t\\t^2-9t+18 =0\\t=6 or 3

At t= 3 or 6 seconds the projectile would be at height 288 ft.

So while going up after 3 seconds it wouldbe at a height of 288 ft and while coming after 6 seconds.

The diameter of a circle is 3.2 meters. Which is the circumference of the circle rounded to the nearest hundredth of a meter?
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

10.05 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diameter is 3.2 meters, then the radius is 1.6 meters.

Use the circumference formula, C = 2\pir, and solve for C

C = 2\pir

C = 2\pi(1.6)

C = 3.2\pi

C = 10.05

So, to the nearest hundredth of a meter, the circumference is 10.05 meters
