34,000 people attended a ballgame at a stadium that offers two kind of seats: general admission and reserved. The day's receipts
hoa [83]

Answer:

The number of people who paid $ 12 for reserved seat is 5,000

The number of people who paid $ 4 for general seat is 29,000  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total number of people attending a ballgame = 34,000

The total receipt of the ticket's seat = $ 176,000

The amount pad for reserved seat = $ 12

The amount paid for general admission = $ 4

Let The number of people for reserved seat = r

And The number of people for general admission = g

Now, According to question

The total number of people attending a ballgame =  The number of people for reserved seat + The number of people for general admission

or, r + g = 34,000           ...........1

The total receipt of the ticket's seat = The amount pad for reserved seat × The number of people for reserved seat + The amount paid for general admission × The number of people for general admission

Or, $ 12 × r + $  ×4 g = $ 176,000           .........2

or, $ 12 × ( r + g ) = $ 12 × 34000

Or, $ 12 r + $ 12 g = $ 408,000

Solving equation

( $ 12 r + $ 12 g ) - ($ 12 r + $ 4 g ) = $ 408,000 - $ 176,000

Or, ( $ 12 r - $ 12 r ) + ( $ 12 g - $ 4 g ) = $ 232,000

Or 0 + 8 g = 232,000

∴  g = \frac{232000}{8}

I.e g = 29,000

So , The number of people for general admission = g = 29,000

Put the value of g in Eq 1

I.e  r + g = 34,000  

or , r = 34,000 - g

∴  r = 34000 - 29000

I.e r = 5,000

So, The number of people for reserved seat = r = 5,000

Hence The number of people who paid $ 12 for reserved seat is 5,000

And The number of people who paid $ 4 for general seat is 29,000  Answer

A new television set was recently purchased for the common room in a residence hall for $436.80 including tax the tax rate is 4%
garri49 [273]

Answer:

The price of the television before taxes is $420

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The purchased price = cost price +  taxes

- A new television set was recently purchased for the common room

 in a residence hall for $436.80

- This price including tax

- The tax rate is 4%

- We need to find the price of the television before taxes

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

- Assume that the price of the television before tax is 100%

∵ The tax rate is 4%

∵ The price after tax = price before tax + tax

∵ The price before tax = 100%

∴ The price after tax  = 100% + 4% = 104%

∵ 104% equivalent to $436.80

∴ 100   ⇒   ?

  104   ⇒   436.80

- <em>By using cross multiplication</em>

∴ ? = \frac{(436.80)(100)}{104}=420

∴ The price of the television before taxes is $420
