Answer: Each ticket costs $32

=========================================================

Explanation:

Let x be the cost of one ticket. If four people buy a ticket each, then they collectively spend a total of 4x dollars for those tickets. Add on 4*3 = 12 dollars from the fact that they bought the ice cream, and we arrive at the expression 4x+12. This is the total amount spent in dollars for the tickets and ice cream combined.

Set this expression equal to 140 and solve for x

4x+12 = 140

4x = 140-12

4x = 128

x = 128/4

x = 32

This says that each ticket costs $32

If one ticket costs $32, then four of them cost a total of 4*32 = 128 dollars. Add on the $12 spent on the ice cream to get 128+12 = 140, which helps verify we have the correct ticket price.

Another way to verify is to replace x with 32 in the original equation we set up, then simplify like so

4x+12 = 140

4*32+12 = 140

128+12 = 140

140 = 140

This is very similar to the previous verification technique used earlier.

$600 invested with compound interest at a rate of 4% per year for 10 years <br> formula:M= P(1+i)^n
makkiz [27]
Answer: M = 2100$

Explanation:

M = P(1 + I)^n

P = 600$, I = 4% = 0.04, n = 10

=> M = 600(1 + 0.04)^10
M = 600(1.04)^10
M = 600(3.5)
M = 2100$

How do you find the area of this composite figure?
Illusion [34]
If you notice the picture below

the composite figure is just a trapezoid sitting on top of a rectangle
and then, the rectangle has a triangular hole in it

so.. get the area of the trapezoid   \bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}=A=\cfrac{h}{2}(a+b)\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;h=height\\&#10;a,b=\textit{parallel sides or bases}&#10;\end{cases}

then get the area of the rectangle, which is just a 12x14
and then get the area of the triangle, which surely you know is 1/2 bh

then, subtract the triangle's area from the rectangle's area

and whatever is left, namely the difference, add that to the area of the trapezoid, and that's the composite's area

namely the area of the trapezoid plus the rectangle's, minus the triangle's
