Answer:

9.83cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not asked what to look for. We can find the height of the wall.

Let the height of the wall be H

Given

Length of the ladder l = 12fot

Angle of elevation = 55degrees

Required

Height of wall H

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

SIn theta = opp/hyp

Sin 55 = H/12

H - 12sin55

H = 12(0.8192)

H = 9.83cm

Hence the height of the ladder is 9.83cm

Seventy concert tickets were sold for $550. each adult ticket cost $9 and each childrens ticket cost $5. find the number of adul
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Total tickets = 70

Total cost = $550

Adult's ticket = $9

Child's ticket = $5

Difference = 9 - 5 = $4

Assume all 70 are child's tickets

5 x 70 = 350

But the total cost was 550

550 - 350 = $200

The $200 must have come from Adult's tickets, which has a difference of $4.

200 ÷ 4 = 50

So there are 50 adult's tickets.

70 - 50 = 20

And there are 20 child's tickets.

Hope this helps - Itz.Jordan

ss7ja [257]
The answer is 119.8245. 49% of $234.95 is 115.1255 (.49 • 234.95 = 115.1255). Subtract $115.1255 from $234.95 to get the answer to get 119.8245 (234.95 – 115.1255 = 119.8245).

PLEASE GIVE AN EXPLANATION WITH YOUR ANSWER! The table below shows the change in the value of shares over the last three years.
gulaghasi [49]

First, lets convert them into multipliers:

The multiplier for a:

                             25% increase = 1.25

                             40% decrease = 0.6

                             40% increase  = 1.4

Now to work out the overall percentage change, we just times all of the multipliers together, and convert it back to a percentage:

1.25 x 0.6 x 1.4 = 1.05    

So the overall multiplier is 1.05

And a multiplier of 1.05 = a <u>5% increase</u>.

That means that the percentage change is + 5%

_________________________________________

Answer:

The percentage change in shares from the start of 2013 to the end of 2015 is:

+ 5%

Note: if you haven't been taught multipliers - then ask and I'll try my best to explain!
