Triangles ABC and ADE are similar triangles. That means the sides are all scaled by the same factor.
To go from side BC to side DE, you multiply by 1.25. That means 1.25 is your scale factor. Now apply that factor to the bottom side to get your answer.
Side AB is 6. That means side AD is 6 x 1.25 = 7.5. That means x = 7.5 - 6 = 1.5
There was 3000 general admission tickets sold and 500 kid ticket sold.
How did I get this?
First, we need to see what information we have.
$2.50 = General admission tickets = (G)
$0.50 = kids tickets = (K)
There were 6x as many general admission tickets sold as kids. G = 6K
We need two equations:
G = 6K
$2.50G + $.50K = $7750
Since, G = 6K we can substitute that into the 2nd equation.
2.50(6K) + .50K = 7750
Distribute 2.50 into the parenthesis
15K + .50K = 7750
combine like terms
15.50K = 7750
Divide both sides by 15.50, the left side will cancel out.
K = 7750/15.50
K = 500 tickets
So, 500 kid tickets were sold.
Plug K into our first equation (G = 6k)
G = 6*500
G = 3000 tickets
So, 3000 general admission tickets were sold,
Let's check this:
$2.50(3000 tickets) = $7500 (cost of general admission tickets)
$.50(500 tickets) = $250 (cost of general admission tickets)
$7500 + $250 = $7750 (total cost of tickets)
Disagree she needs 7 cups of bananas because 1.75×4=7
Answer:
+ 5°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Good morning temperature = -15°
Raise in temperature = 20°
Afternoon temperature = -15° + 20°
= + 5°
Hence, temperature in after noon is equal to + 5°.
The answer would be the first one.
