Answer:

  $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Jake's total expenditure is ...

  total = admission + c × (number of tickets)

  36 = 13.50 + 9c . . . an equation to solve

  4 = 1.50 +c . . . . . . . divide by 9

  2.50 = c . . . . the cost of one ticket

Each ticket cost Jake $2.50.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

  • 9 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let he speed of the boat on the lake is x.

<u>Considering the speed of the current it will take him:</u>

  • 22.5/(x + 6) + 22.5/(x - 6) = 9
  • 2.5 / (x  + 6) + 2.5 / (x - 6) = 1
  • 2.5(x - 6 + x + 6) = (x + 6)(x - 6)
  • 2.5*2x = x² - 36
  • x² - 5x - 36 = 0
  • x = (5 ± √(5² + 4*36))/2 = (5 ± 13) / 2
  • x = (5 + 13)/2 = 9 mph (negative root is discarded as the speed should be positive)

Which expression can be used to find m pls help
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

∠ U = 22.62°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the trigonometric expression to find ∠U by using the ratio:

sin(θ) = opposite/ hypotenuse

=> sin ∠U = 7.5/ 19.5

=> ∠ U = sin^{-1}( 7.5/ 19.5)

∴ ∠ U = 22.619° ≈ 22.62°
