To solve this problem, we are going to use a scientific/mathematics strategy called Dimensional Analysis.
40 miles / 1 hour * 5280 feet / 1 mile = 211200 feet / 1 hour
211200 feet / 1 hour * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 3520 feet/ 1 minute
3520 feet / 1 minute * 1 minute / 60 seconds = approximately 59 feet / 1 second
Jackrabbits travel approximately 59 feet per second, when rounded to the nearest whole number.
Answer: 96 adult tickets were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.
Let y represent the number of students tickets that were sold.
For the last basketball game, 381 tickets were sold. This means that
x + y = 381
Adult tickets sold for $7, and student tickets sold for $3. If the ticket sales totaled 1,527, it means that
7x + 3y = 1527 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 381 - y into equation 1, it becomes
7(381 - y) + 3y = 1527
2667 - 7y + 3y = 1527
- 7y + 3y = 1527 - 2667
- 4y = - 1140
y = - 1140/- 4
y = 285
x = 381 - y = 381 - 285
x = 96
Take the number (63) and then divide it with 100, this gives you 1%. Then you want to multiply with with 15 in order to get 15%. The answer becomes:
Answer:
y = 15x + 30
Step-by-step explanation:
The $30 rental fee is a flat fee.
The $15 per day can be noted as 15x.
y = 15x + 30
2/3 is basically 0.6666666667 which is the same as 66% so any percentage bigger than 66% such as 75% (0.75) which is 3/4 (as a fraction) is bigger than 2/3
