Answer:

x = 1

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Translate</u>

"Five" = 5

"times" is multiplication

"difference" is subtraction

"twice" means 2 times something

"a number" = <em>x</em>

"is" means equal

"-10" = -10

<u>Step 2: Set up equation</u>

5(2x - 4) = -10

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute 5:                    10x - 20 = -10
  2. Isolate <em>x </em>term:                 10x = 10
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                          x = 1

A theater charges $25 for adults and $15 for children. When the price of a child's ticket increases to $18 next year,the cost fo
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Given:
tickets for adults - 25
tickets for kids - 15
initial cost - 450
increase in tickets for kids to - 18
cost after increase - 480

let x be number of adults and y be number of kids

25x + 15y = 450
25x + 18y = 480

subtraction:

25x + 15y = 450
<u>-25x - 18y = -480</u>
 0      - 3y = - 30
         y = -30/-3
         y = 10

There are 10 kids.

25x + 15y = 450
25x + 15(10) = 450
25x + 150 = 450
25x = 450 - 150
25x = 300
x = 300/25
x = 12

There are 12 adults.

All in all there are 12 adults and 10 kids.

to check:
25x + 15y = 450
25(12) + 15(10) = 450
300 + 150 = 450
450 = 450

25x + 18y = 480
25(12) + 18(10) = 480
300 + 180 = 480
480 = 480

А<br> _has two-fold rotational symmetry.
Phoenix [80]

Common figures with only rotational symmetry are the recycling sign and fan blades. If a figure coincides with the original twice in one full turn, it has two-fold rotational symmetry, or rotational symmetry order two. ... The square, for example, has four-fold rotational symmetry.

Someone please pass the answers to this
arsen [322]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. The figure is composed of a triangle and a rectangle.

Area of the triangle = ½*base*height

base = 4 ft

height = 12 - 8 = 4ft

Area of triangle = ½*4*4 = 8 ft²

Area of rectangle = length * width

Length = 8 ft

Width = 4 ft

Area of rectangle = 8*4 = 32 ft²

✔️Area of the figure = 8 + 32 = 40 ft²

2. The figure is composed of a semicircle and a triangle

Area of the semicircle = ½(πr²)

radius (r) = 3 cm

π = 3

Area = ½(3*3²) = 13.5 cm²

Area of triangle = ½*base*height

base = 3*2 = 6 cm

height = 6 cm

Area = ½*6*6 = 6 cm²

✔️Area of the figure = 13.5 + 6 = 19.5 cm²
