Answer:

17.75x + 5.25 $\leq$ 165

x $\leq$ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost can be represented by 17.75x + 5.25, where x is the number of people.

They can only spend a maximum of $165, so a less than or equal sign has to be used.

The inequality will be 17.75x + 5.25 $\leq$ 165

Now, solve for x:

17.75x + 5.25 $\leq$ 165

17.75x $\leq$ 159.75

x $\leq$ 9

So, x $\leq$ 9 is the answer, meaning 9 people or less can go to the amusement park.

C = 172.7 cm

Anika [276]

I am hoping that the a in c = ad is supposed to be x.

The formula for circumference is c = pi * diameter with 3.14 substituting for pi.

Let’s plug in some values

172.7 = 3.14d

Divide

55 = d

The diameter should be 55 cm.

You deposit $300 in a savings account that pays 6% interest compounded semiannually. How much will you have at the middle of the

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) How much will you have at the middle of the first year?

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 0.5 years

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

$A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

substituting the values

$A=300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(0.5\right)}$

$A=300\cdot \frac{2.06}{2}$

$A=\frac{618}{2}$

$A=309$ $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year compounded 2 times per year over 0.5 years is $ 309.00.

Part b) How much at the end of one year?

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 1 years

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

$A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

so substituting the values

$A\:=\:300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(1\right)}$

$A=300\cdot \frac{2.06^2}{2^2}$

$A=318.27$ $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year compounded 2 times per year over 1 year is $ 318.27.

Plz help I will mark you brainlist plz hellp

Answer:Probability = 1/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

A number cube has six sides. Each side has a number from 1 to 6. This means that there are 3 even numbers (2, 4, and 6) and 3 odd numbers (1, 3, and 5). Therefore:

P(number cube lands on an even number after roll) = Number of even numbers/Number of total numbers. = 3/6 = 1/2.

Since the cube has to be rolled three times, the probability will be multiplied 3 times (assuming that each roll in independent of each other). Therefore:

P(number cube lands on an even number 3 times after roll) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8.

Therefore, the answer is 1/8!!!

You have some turtles and some pelicans. Together there are 114 legs and a total of 34 animals. How many of each animal are ther

Ann [662]

Let t and p represent the numbers of turtles and pelicans, respectively.

... 2p + 4t = 114 . . . . . . . the number of legs is 114

... p + t = 34 . . . . . . . . . the number of animals is 34

Divide the first equation by 2 and subtract the second.

... (2p +4t)/2 - (p +t) = (114)/2 - 34

... t = 23 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

Then p = 34 - t = 11

There are 11 pelicans and 23 turtles.

_____

You can get to the same answer by considering the number of legs you would have if all the animals were pelicans. That would be 34*2 = 68. The is 46 fewer legs than there actually are. Each turtle that replaces one of those 34 pelicans adds 2 legs to the total, so to add 46 legs, we must replace 46/2 = 23 pelicans with turtles. That is, there are 23 turtles and 11 pelicans.
