Answer:
(a) B
(b) $2
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Let's say the cost of a ticket is t and the cost of popcorn is p. Then we can write the two equations from the table:
12t + 8p = 184
9t + 6p = 138
We need to solve this, so let's use elimination. Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 4:
3 * (12t + 8p = 184)
4 * (9t + 6p = 138)
We get:
36t + 24p = 552
36t + 24p = 552
Subtract the second from the first:
36t + 24p = 552
- 36t + 24p = 552
________________
0 = 0
Since we get down to 0 = 0, which is always true, we know that we cannot determine the cost of each ticket because there is more than one solution (infinitely many, actually). The answer is B.
(b) Our equation from this, if we still use t and p, is:
5t + 4p = 82
Now, just choose any of the two equations from above. Let's just pick 9t + 6p = 138. Now, we have the system:
5t + 4p = 82
9t + 6p = 138
To solve, let's use elimination again. Multiply the first equation by 6 and the second one by 4:
6 * (5t + 4p = 82)
4 * (9t + 6p = 138)
We get:
30t + 24p = 492
36t + 24p = 552
Subtract the second from the first:
36t + 24p = 552
- 30t + 24p = 492
________________
6t + 0p = 60
So, t = 60/6 = $10. Plug this back into any of the equations to solve for p:
5t + 4p = 82
5 * 10 + 4p = 82
50 + 4p = 82
4p = 32
p = 32/4 = $8
So the ticket costs 10 - 8 = $2 more dollars than the popcorn.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
12 cookies = 25% of bag
25% x 4= 100%
12 x 4 = 48
48-12=36 cookies left
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the series: 1 - 3 + 9 - 27 +... clearly has powers of the factor 3 in its terms and it is also an alternate series (the terms alternate from positive to negative). The terms are positive for 
(even terms) , while the odd terms 
are negative. (so most likely there should be a factor (-1) in the common ratio.
We can then represent it with the following summation expression:
given that each of its first four terms are:
Exact Area = 98pi
Approximate Area = 307.8760800518 (use calculator stored version of pi)
Approximate Area = 307.72 (using pi = 3.14)
Units are in square millimeters
======================================================
Explanation:
In 60 seconds, the hand sweeps out a full circle of radius 14. The area of this circle is
A = pi*r^2 = pi*14^2 = 196pi
Half of this is what the hand sweeps out in 30 seconds, so A/2 = (196pi)/2 = 98pi is the exact area it sweeps out. Your calculator would then show 98pi = 307.8760800518 approximately
If instead you use pi = 3.14, then the approximate area is 98*3.14 = 307.72
