9514 1404 393

Answer:

  6 children

Step-by-step explanation:

If all of the group were adults, the total cost of tickets would be 8×$10 = $80. The actual cost was $80 -62 = $18 less than that. Since each children's ticket saves $3 off the cost of an adult ticket, there were $18/$3 = 6 children's tickets.

There were 6 children in the group.

_____

If you want an equation, you can let c represent the number of children. Then the cost of tickets is ...

  8(10 -c) +5c = 62 . . . . 10-c is the number of adults

  -3c = -18 . . . . . . . subtract 80

  c = -18/-3 = 6 . . . divide by 3

What is 1/2 to 1/4 equals
sergey [27]

Do you mean 1/2 of 1/4 if so it’s just timsing the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator. So, 1 x 1 = 1 and 2 x 4 = 8

Therefore it’s 1/8!

If you didn’t understand I’ll gladly elaborate!

kkurt [141]

Answer:

39.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying

s = 2πrθ/360................ Equation 1

Where s = length of an arc or distance traveled by the minutes hand of the clock during the 42 munites, r = length of the minutes hand of the clock, θ = Angle traveled by the minute hand of the clock for every 42 minutes

From the question,

Given: r = 9 cm, θ = 252°

Constant: π = 22/7 = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

s = (2×3.14×9×252)/360

s = 39.564

s = 39.6 cm
