Complete Question

A school held several evening activities last month—a music concert, a basketball game, a drama play, and literacy night. The music concert was attended by 250 people. How many people came to each of the other activities?

Attendance at the drama play was 140% of attendance at the concert. How many people came to the drama play?

Answer:

350 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of people that attended a drama play =

Number of people that attended the drama play/Total number of people at the concert × 100

Attendance at the drama play was 140% of attendance at the concert.

The music concert was attended by 250 people

Let the number of people that came to the drama play = x

Hence:

140% = x/250 × 100

140/100 = x/250

Cross Multiply

140 × 250 = 100 × x

x = 140 × 250/100

x = 350 people

Therefore, the number of people that came to the drama play = 350 people

(ANSWER FOR FREE BRAINPOINTS!) (FIRST TO ANSWER GETS BAINLIEST) The local park has a rectangular swimming pool that measures 40

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both pools are similar, therefore the ratio of their length and width would be equal. That is:

Length of the current swimming pool : length of the new swimming pool = width of the current swimming pool : width of the new swimming pool

Thus, we can set up a proportion as shown below:

Let the width of the new swimming pool be x.

40 : 24 = 15 : x

$\frac{40}{24} = \frac{15}{x}$

Cross multiply

$40*x = 15*24$

$40x = 360$

Divide both sides by 40

$x = \frac{360}{40}$

$x = 9$

The width of the new swimming that is smaller would be 9 yards.

Using the following figure, match the angles in the first column with their corresponding congruent angles in the second column.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

∠6 = ∠8

∠2 = ∠6

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines 'p' and 'q' are the parallel lines and line 'l' is a transversal line intersecting these lines at two distinct points.

By the property of alternate interior angles,

∠3 = ∠5

By the property of vertically opposite angles,

∠6 = ∠8

By the property of corresponding angles,

∠2 = ∠6
