Answer:
The results don't make sense
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:
"x" is the number of children's tickets
"y" is the number of adult tickets
Thus:
8 * x + 8.75 * y = 259
x + y = 35 => x = 35 - y
replacing we have:
8 * (35 - y) + 8.75 * y = 259
280 - 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259
- 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259 - 280
0.75 * y = -21
y = -21 / 0.75
y = -28
Thus:
x = 35 - (-28) = 63
With these results we notice that the problem has inconsistency, since the value of the tickets cannot be given a negative number, I recommend reviewing the problem, since the approach is correct.
A coordinate plane is a two dimensional plane formed by the intersection of a vertical line called y axis and a horizontal line called x axis! Hope this helps
Answer:
Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Juan practiced the violin for 9 hours last week. For each 3 hours that he practices the violin, he practices 2.5 hours of cello. So
3h violin - 2.5h cello
9h violin - xh cello
He practiced 7.5 hours of cello, the same as Nina.
For every 3 hours Nina spends practicing the viola she practices the cello for 2 hours. So:
3h viola - 2h cello
xh viola - 7.5h cello
Nina practiced the viola for 11.25 hours last week.
"c" is the hypotenuse of the largest triangle, and "a" is that triangle's shortest side. Thus the ratio is
... (longest side)/(shortest side)
Since all the triangles in the figure are similar, to complete the proportion, you need to recognize the triangle that "a" is the longest side of, then find the shortest side of that triangle.
"a" is the longest side (hypotenuse) of the smallest triangle. The shortest side of that triangle is "r". So, your proportion is ...
... c/a = a/r
The appropriate choice is the 2nd one, ...
... r
First subtract the weight the dog weighs now to the weight he was:
48.9
- 29.7
------------
19.2
Then take the number you got which is the weight the dog gain in total, and divide it by the months the dog gained weight to get the average weight gained each month:
19.2/8 = 2.4
The average weight gain each month was 2.4 pounds.
Hope this helped you!
