Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
-9/3=-3
-3+b=-1
b=-1+3
b=-2
We know that
<span>the length of Q is 25% more than the length of p
</span>so
length Q=1.25*40--------> 50 cm
<span>the area of Q is 10% less than the area of p
Area Q=50*y
Area P=40*x
so
50*y=0.90*[40*x]---------> 50*y=36*x-------> x/y=50/36---> 25/18
the answer isthe ratio </span><span>
x:y is</span><span>
25:18</span>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The surface area of a square prism is given by the formula

where
b is the length side of the square base
h is the height of the prism
we have

substitute

solve for h

Given:
tickets for adults - 25
tickets for kids - 15
initial cost - 450
increase in tickets for kids to - 18
cost after increase - 480
let x be number of adults and y be number of kids
25x + 15y = 450
25x + 18y = 480
subtraction:
25x + 15y = 450
<u>-25x - 18y = -480</u>
0 - 3y = - 30
y = -30/-3
y = 10
There are 10 kids.
25x + 15y = 450
25x + 15(10) = 450
25x + 150 = 450
25x = 450 - 150
25x = 300
x = 300/25
x = 12
There are 12 adults.
All in all there are 12 adults and 10 kids.
to check:
25x + 15y = 450
25(12) + 15(10) = 450
300 + 150 = 450
450 = 450
25x + 18y = 480
25(12) + 18(10) = 480
300 + 180 = 480
480 = 480
