Answer:

55 tickets for adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by setting up two equations. One equation will be the total amount of money spent and the other is the total amount of tickets sold. a is the # of adult tickets and c is the # of children tickets sold.

7a+4c=469

a+c=76

Now solve for c in the second equation. Then use that to substitute for c in the first equation.

c=76-a

7a+4(76-a)=469

7a+ 304-4a =469

7a+4a=165

3a=165

a=165/3

a=55

An open metal tank of square base has a volume of 123 m^3
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

  a) h = 123/x^2

  b) S = x^2 +492/x

  c) x ≈ 6.27

  d) S'' = 6; area is a minimum (Y)

  e) Amin ≈ 117.78 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The volume is given by ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the base, x^2, and h is the height. Filling in the given volume, and solving for the height, we get:

  123 = x^2·h

  h = 123/x^2

__

b) The surface area is the sum of the area of the base (x^2) and the lateral area, which is the product of the height and the perimeter of the base.

S=x^2+Ph=x^2+(4x)\dfrac{123}{x^2}\\\\S=x^2+\dfrac{492}{x}

__

c) The derivative of the area with respect to x is ...

S'=2x-\dfrac{492}{x^2}

When this is zero, area is at an extreme.

0=2x -\dfrac{492}{x^2}\\\\0=x^3-246\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{246}\approx 6.26583

__

d) The second derivative is ...

S''=2+\dfrac{2\cdot 492}{x^3}=2+\dfrac{2\cdot 492}{246}=6

This is positive, so the value of x found represents a minimum of the area function.

__

e) The minimum area is ...

S=x^2+\dfrac{2\cdot 246}{x}=(246^{\frac{1}{3}})^2+2\dfrac{246}{246^{\frac{1}{3}}}=3\cdot 246^{\frac{2}{3}}\approx 117.78

The minimum area of metal used is about 117.78 m².

A pair of shoes usually sells for $67. If the shoes are 40% off, and sales tax is 8%, what is the total price of the shoes, incl
Gekata [30.6K]
If it is 40% off, it means you have to pay 60% of its price.
$67 × 60/100 = $40.20
the 8% of sales tax is added from the $40.20
$40.20 × 8/100 = $3.22
total price = $40.20 + $3.22 = $43.42
