Misha Larkins [42]

65% of the total expenses is for marketing, in which 500,000 is the total.

First, change the percentage into decimal

65% = 65/100 = 0.65

Next, to find the amount budgeted for marketing, multiply the total with the decimal

0.65 x 500000 = 325000

$325000 is used for marketing

Sever21 [200]
Let x = number of adults tickets sold
then, 1750 - x = number of children tickets sold

We know that the cost for adult tickets is $5 and and children is above calculated so sum total tickets sold cost is $7100.

($5)(x) + ($2)(1750-x) = $7100
5x - 2x + 3500 = 7100
3x = 3600
x = 1200

GEOMETRY HELP please you will get 10 points and a friend
Flura [38]
The answer is: the Y axis. :I
You reflect it, then you shift the shape 1 unit to the right. For example, Point U is at coordinates, -2, 2. Reflected across the Y axis, it's 2, 2. Then to get to the point that U' is at, you shift your reflected U to the right one unit. That gets you to coordinates 3, 2. Same thing goes for the other Points. Cx Hope this helped!!
