A middle schooler took all the 6th grader on a field trip to see ballet. The students filled up 570 seats, which was 95% of the
Musya8 [376]

The total  number of seats in the theater is 600 seats, if the students filled up 570 seats, which was 95% of the total number of seats in the theater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                 Seats filled by students are 570 seats

                 Which is 95% of the total number of seats in the theater

Step: 1

                Let, x - Total number of seats available in theater

                Percentage of seats filled, y= 95%

                Seats filled by students = 570

                Formula to calculate total number of seats in theater,

                          95% of seats  = \frac{95}{100}( x)    

                                         570 = 0.95 (x)

                                              x = \frac{570}{0.95}

                                                 = 600

                                              x = 600 seats

Step: 2

            Check for solution,

                            5% of seats  = \frac{5}{100} (600)

                                                  = (0.05 × 600)

                                                  = 30 seats

                    Total no. of seats = 5% of seats  + 95% of seats

                                                  = 30 + 570

                                         600 = 600

Result:

           The total  number of seats in the theater is 600 seats.

Divide the number 20 into two parts (not necessarily integers) in a way that makes the product of one part with the square of th
Ilya [14]

Answer:

13 1/3 and  6 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 parts be x and (20 - x).

So x^2(20 - x) must be a maximum.

y = x^2(20 - x)

y = 20x^2 - x^3

Finding the derivative):

y' =  40x - 3x^2 = 0   for  maxm/minm value.

x( 40 - 3x) = 0

40 - 3x = 0

3x = 40

x = 40/3.

This is a maximum because the second derivative y" =  40 - 6x = 40 - 6(40/3)) is negative.

So the 2 numbers are 13 1/3 and  6 2/3.
