Answer:69

Step-by-step explanation:

A) $16

B) p(x) = 16x -800

C) 69 ticketsn:

A) The total of expenses is ...

$280 +100 +20 +400 = $800

If this is covered by 50 tickets, then a ticket must provide revenue of ...

$800/50 = $16

The cost per ticket is $16.

__

B) The profit is the difference between revenue and expenses. The revenue from sale of x tickets will be 16x. The expenses are fixed at 800, so the profit is ...

p(x) = 16x -800

__

C) We can find the number of tickets to sell (x) in order for profit to be at least $300 by solving the inequality ...

p(x) ≥ 300

16x -800 ≥ 300 . . . . . use the expression for p(x)

16x ≥ 1100 . . . . . . . . . add 800

x ≥ 68.75 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16 . . . (the least satisfactory integer is 69)

In order to raise at least $300, the number of tickets sold must be at least 69.

You just have to add or subtract the percent of a number from the original

A) 5percent of 40=2 ( 0.05*40)
Since it’s increase add 2 to 40=42

F) 40percent of 25= 10 (0.4* 25)

Write a rational equation that relates the desired percentage to the amount of % acid solution that needs to be added to liter o
mart [117]

This question is incomplete

Complete Question

Write a rational equation that relates the desired percentage p, to the amount A of a 30% solution that needs to be added to 1 liter of 10% acid solution to make a blend that is p% acid, where 0<p<100 . What is a reasonable restriction on the set of possible values of ? Explain your answer.

Answer:

100(0.1 + 0.3A)= (1 + A) P

Step-by-step explanation:

A of a 30% solution that needs to be added to 1 liter of 10% acid solution to make a blend that is p% acid,

Hence,

10% of 1 + 30% of A = p%(1 + A)

0.10 + 0.3A = (p/100)(1 + A)

Divide both sides by 1 + A

0.1 + 0.3A/ 1 + A = p/100

Cross Multiply

100(0.1 + 0.3A) = 1 + A(p)

From the above calculation, we can see that, the blend that would be formed is not lower than 10% or greater than 30%

10% < p< 30%

You put $200 into an account earning 6% interest compounded yearly.
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

43.35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are to find Time t for compound interest

The formula is given as :

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

A = $2500

P = Principal = $200

R = 6%

n = Compounding frequency = 1

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 6/100

r = 0.06 per year,

Then, solve the equation for t

t = ln(A/P) / n[ln(1 + r/n)]

t = ln(2,500.00/200.00) / ( 1 × [ln(1 + 0.06/1)] )

t = ln(2,500.00/200.00) / ( 1 × [ln(1 + 0.06)] )

t = 43.346 years

Approximately = 43.35 years

You have 15 pennies in your pocket. Of those pennies, 4 are Canadian. Suppose you pick a penny out of your pocket at random. Fin
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 out of 15 are Canadian, the ratio of the probability of picking a Canadian is 4/15.  That means that the probability of NOT picking a Canadian is the complement of 4/15 which is 11/15.  Therefore, the probability of not picking a Canadian is the same thing as the probability of picking an American penny which is 11/15.
