Answer:
The top right answer choice is correct.
2.3 x 12 = 27.6
27.6 > 27.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first off, we know that:
1 foot = 12 inches
To compare the two, we first want to covert 2.3 feet into inches.
2.3 x 12 = 27.6 inches
Now that we have our two values, we need to decide which is greater than the other.
27.6 or 27.1
Both values have a decimal that shows tenths. In this problem, 6 tenths is larger than 1 tenth. Therefore:
27.6 inches > 27.1 inches
Answer:
550 mm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
A net can be drawn as shown in the first figure attached. Each square represents 5 mm by 5 mm, so is 25 mm^2. Altogether, there are 22 of them, so the total area is ...
(25 mm^2)·22 = 550 mm^2
The second attachment shows that net folded up to make the given figure.
_____
In the first attachment, the green shades represent the left- and right-side faces. (Darker green is left side.) The red and blue shades represent the front- and back-side faces. The white rectangles represent the top and bottom faces. The dark black lines are the cut lines. If you want to fold the figure up, the lighter lines are the fold lines.
The second attachment is just verification that all faces are accounted for and the net actually corresponds to the given figure.
So what we have to do to solve this problem is to write down those values in 2 equations (one that represents what you sold and the other what your friend sold) compare them and find how much each ticket is worth.
First equation : 11x + 8y = 158
Where x = how much each adult ticket is
and y = how much each student ticket is
The second equation is : 5x + 17y = 152
Using the method of substitution , we can compare each equation side by side:
11x + 8y = 158
5x + 17y = 152
Now we need to set one of the variables of both equations so they are equal:
11(5)x + 8(5) = 158(5)
5(11)x + 17(11)x = 152(11)
55x + 40y = 790
55x + 187y = 1672
Then we subtract the second equation by the first one
55x-55x + 187y - 40y = 1672 - 790
147y = 882
y = 6
The we apply y to one of the equations to discover x :
11x + 8y = 158
11x + 8(6) = 158
11x + 48 = 158
11x = 110
x = 10
So the awnser is :
Each adult ticket (x) is $10
And each student ticket (y) is $8
