Answer:

The discount is $79.80

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve this using proportions.  We take the percent out of 100 on one side of the ratio and the discount over the total price on the other.

30         discount

-----   = ----------

100        266

30* 266 = 100 * discount

7980=100 discount

Divide each side by 100

7980/100 = discount

79.80 = discount

A stadium has 50,000 seats. Seats sell for $25 in section A, $20 in section B, and $15 in section C. The number of seats in sect
Novay_Z [31]

Answers:

section A = 25,000 seats

section B = 14,200 seats

section C = 10,800 seats

Your teacher may want you to leave out the commas from each number.

=============================================================

Work Shown:

  • A = number of seats in section A
  • B = number of seats in section B
  • C = number of seats in section C

A = B+C

A+B+C = 50,000

B+C+B+C = 50,000

2(B+C) = 50,000

B+C = 50,000/2

B+C = 25,000

C = 25,000 - B

25A + 20B + 15C = 1,071,000

25(B+C) + 20B + 15C = 1,071,000

25(25,000) + 20B + 15(25,000 - B) = 1,071,000

625,000 + 20B + 375,000 - 15B = 1,071,000

1,000,000 + 5B = 1,071,000

5B = 1,071,000 - 1,000,000

5B = 71,000

B = (71,000)/5

B = 14,200 is the number of seats in section B

C = 25,000 - B

C = 25,000 - 14,200

C = 10,800 is the number of seats in section C

A = B+C

A = 14,200 + 10,800

A = 25,000 is the number of seats in section A

--------------

Check:

A+B+C = 25,000+14,200+10,800 = 50,000
