Simon took a rope that was 16 feet long and cut it into 6 equal pieces.What was the length of each piece of the rope Simon cut?

Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. Advance tickets cost $35 and same-day tickets $30 c

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The number of same-day tickets sold is 15

The number of advance ticket sold is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost of each Advance ticket = $35

The cost of each same-day ticket = $30

The total cost of the tickets sold = $1150

The total number of tickets sold = 35

Let The number of advance ticket sold = a

And The number of same-day ticket sold = s

Now, According to question

The total number of tickets sold =The number of advance ticket sold + The number of same-day ticket sold

I.e a + s = 35 .....A

The total number of tickets sold = The cost of each Advance ticket × The number of advance ticket sold + The cost of each same-day ticket × The number of same-day ticket sold

I.e $35 a + $30 s = $1150

or, 35 a + 30 s = 1150 .......B

Now, solving eq A and B

35 × ( a + s) - ( 35 a + 30 s ) = 35 × 35 - 1150

or, ( 35 a - 35 a ) + ( 35 s - 30 s ) = 1225 - 1150

or, 0 + 5 s = 75

∴ s = $\frac{75}{5}$

I.e s = 15

So, The number of same-day tickets sold = s = 15

Put the value of s in Eq A

So, a + 15 = 35

∴ a = 35 - 15

I.e a = 20

So, The number of advance ticket sold = a = 20

Hence The number of same-day tickets sold is 15

And The number of advance ticket sold is 20 Answer

An area is approximated to be 14 in 2 using a left-endpoint rectangle approximation method. A right- endpoint approximation of t

USPshnik [31]

The trapezoidal approximation will be the average of the left- and right-endpoint approximations.

Let's consider a simple example of estimating the value of a general definite integral,

$\displaystyle\int_a^bf(x)\,\mathrm dx$

Split up the interval $[a,b]$ into $n$ equal subintervals,

$[x_0,x_1]\cup[x_1,x_2]\cup\cdots\cup[x_{n-2},x_{n-1}]\cup[x_{n-1},x_n]$

where $a=x_0$ and $b=x_n$ . Each subinterval has measure (width) $\dfrac{a-b}n$ .

Now denote the left- and right-endpoint approximations by $L$ and $R$ , respectively. The left-endpoint approximation consists of rectangles whose heights are determined by the left-endpoints of each subinterval. These are $\{x_0,x_1,\cdots,x_{n-1}\}$ . Meanwhile, the right-endpoint approximation involves rectangles with heights determined by the right endpoints, $\{x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n\}$ .

So, you have

$L=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(f(x_0)+f(x_1)+\cdots+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})\right)$
$R=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(f(x_1)+f(x_2)+\cdots+f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)\right)$

Now let $T$ denote the trapezoidal approximation. The area of each trapezoidal subdivision is given by the product of each subinterval's width and the average of the heights given by the endpoints of each subinterval. That is,

$T=\dfrac{b-a}n\left(\dfrac{f(x_0)+f(x_1)}2+\dfrac{f(x_1)+f(x_2)}2+\cdots+\dfrac{f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1})}2+\dfrac{f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)}2\right)$

Factoring out $\dfrac12$ and regrouping the terms, you have

$T=\dfrac{b-a}{2n}\left((f(x_0)+f(x_1)+\cdots+f(x_{n-2})+f(x_{n-1}))+(f(x_1)+f(x_2)+\cdots+f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n))\right)$

which is equivalent to

$T=\dfrac12\left(L+R)$

and is the average of $L$ and $R$ .

So the trapezoidal approximation for your problem should be $\dfrac{14+21}2=\dfrac{35}2=17.5\text{ in}^2$
