A cinema can hold 270 people at one performance 5/9 of the seats were occupied of the occupied seats 40% we occupied by concessi

Elza [17]

Question:

A cinema can hold 270 people at one performance 5/9 of the seats were occupied of the occupied seats 40% we occupied by concessionary ticket holders.

What is the number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders?.

Answer:

60 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of seats = 270

Occupied Seats = 5/9

Concessionary ticket holders = 40% of occupied Seats

Required

The number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders

First the number of occupied seat has to be calculated.

$Occupied\ Seats = \frac{5}{9} * 270$

$Occupied\ Seats = \frac{1350}{9}$

$Occupied\ Seats = 150$

Next is to determine the number of seats occupied by concessionary ticket holders.

$Number = 40\%\ of\ occupied\ seats$

$Number = 40\%\ of\ 150$

Convert percentage to decimal

$Number = 0.4 * 150$

$Number = 60$

<em>Hence, 60 seats were occupied by concessionary ticket holders.</em>

Complete the square and write in standard form. Show all work.What would be the conic section:CircleEllipseHyperbolaParabola

mote1985 [20]

ANSWER

This is an ellipse. The equation is:

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

EXPLANATION

We have to complete the square for each variable. To do so, we have to take the first two terms and compare them with the perfect binomial squared formula,

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

For x we have to take 16x² and -32x. Since the coefficient of x is not 1, first, we have to factor out the coefficient 16,

$16x^2-32x=16(x^2-2x)$

Now, the first term of the expanded binomial would be x and the second term -2x. Thus, the binomial is,

$(x-1)^2=x^2-2x+1$

To maintain the equation, we have to subtract 1,

$16(x^2-2x+1-1)=16((x-1)^2-1)=16(x-1)^2-16$

Now, we replace (16x² - 32x) from the given equation by this equivalent expression,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9y^2+72y+16=0$

The next step is to do the same for y. We have the terms 9y² + 72y. Again, since the coefficient of y² is not 1, we factor out the coefficient 9,

$9y^2+72y=9(y^2+8y)$

Following the same reasoning as before, we have that the perfect binomial squared is,

$(y+4)^2=y^2+8y+16$

Remember to subtract the independent term to maintain the equation,

$9(y^2+8y)=9(y^2+8y+16-16)=9((y+4)^2-16)=9(y+4)^2-144$

And now, as we did for x, replace the two terms (9y² + 72y) with this equivalent expression in the equation,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9(y+4)^2-144+16=0$

Add like terms,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2+(-16-144+16)=0 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144=0 \end{gathered}$

Add 144 to both sides,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144+144=0+144 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2=144 \end{gathered}$

As we can see, this is the equation of an ellipse. Its standard form is,

$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$

So the next step is to divide both sides by 144 and also write the coefficients as fractions in the denominator,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{16(x-1)^2}{144}+\frac{9(y+4)^2}{144}=\frac{144}{144} \\ \\ \frac{(x-1)^2}{\frac{144}{16}}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{\frac{144}{9}}=1 \end{gathered}$

Finally, we have to write the denominators as perfect squares, so we identify the values of a and b. 144 is 12², 16 is 4² and 9 is 3²,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{(\frac{12}{4})^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{(\frac{12}{3})^2}=1$

Note that we can simplify a and b,

$\frac{12}{4}=3\text{ and }\frac{12}{3}=4$

Hence, the equation of the ellipse is,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

The quotient of two less than a number and five is eight

postnew [5]

Answer:

The number is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number.

"two less than a number" is x - 2

Quotient means the result of a division.

(x - 2)/5 = 8

Multiply both sides by 5.

x - 2 = 40

Add 2 to both sides.

x = 42

Answer: The number is 42.

Check.

Start with 42. 2 less than 42 is 40. The quotient of 40 and 5 is 40/5 which is 8. The answer is correct.
