Answer:
Hey there!
y=3/4x shows that the y-value is always 3/4 of the x-value.
Thus, if x is 4, y is 3. It always fits the 4:3 ratio.
The ordered pairs that satisfy this equation are: 28:21 and 16:12
Let me know if this helps :)
The midpoint of a line segment is the average of the endpoint's coordinates, mathematically:
mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
In this case:
(-4,6)=((8+x)/2, (-2+y)/2)
(-8,12)=((8+x),(y-2))
(-16, 14)=(x,y)
Answer: 171
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the item starts off at $100.
A 55% decrease means 100%-55% = 45% of the value is still there. The item is now worth 0.45*100 = 45 dollars.
Now increase this by 25%. The long way to do this is to add 25% of 45 onto 45
(25% of 45) + (45) = 0.25*45+45 = 11.25+45 = 56.25
Or, we can multiply 45 by 1.25 since the multiplier 1.25 represents a 25% increase
1.25*45 = 56.25
-----------------------------------------------------
The item was $100, it drops to $45 after the 55% decrease, then it is $56.25 after the 25% increase.
Let's compute the percent difference
A = 100 = old value
B = 56.25 = new value
C = percent difference
C = 100*(B-A)/A
C = 100*(56.25-100)/100
C = -43.75%
The negative C value indicates a percent decrease.
So combining a 55% decrease and a 25% increase leads to an overall decrease of 43.75%
-----------------------------------------------------
A shortcut is to multiply 0.45 and 1.25 to get 0.5625
Then subtract this from 1 to get 1-0.5625 = 0.4375
This is another way to see we have a 43.75% decrease.
Given:
Number of people bought tickets for comedy = 
Number of people bought tickets for horror = 
Number of people bought tickets for kids movie = 
To find the number of people who bought tickets for the action movie.
Let us take,
Total number of tickets = 1
Now,
Total number of tickets for comedy, horror and kids movie are = 
So,

LCM of 5,4,10 = 20
= 
= 
Rest are action movie's tickets.
Therefore,
Number of action movie tickets = 
= 
= 
Hence,
The number of people who bought the tickets for action movie is
.
