Answer: 5, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mr. Ramirez purchased 20 concert tickets

The total price of 20 tickets is \$225

Concert ticket costs \$15 for adults and \$10 for children

suppose there are x adults and y children

\therefore x+y=20\quad \ldots (i)\\\\\Rightarrow 15x+10y=225\quad \ldots(ii)

Solving (i) and (ii) we get

x=5,\ y=15

So, there are 5 adults and 15 children

Part A: What is the ratio of the number of students receiving a C and the number of students receiving an A? * 1:4 6:1 4:1 3:1 P
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

a. 4 : 1

b. 2 students

c. 3 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a. There were 12 students who got a C and 3 students who got As. The ratio is therefore:

12 : 3

Take it to the lowest form by dividing both sides by 3:

= 4 : 1

b. There were 4 students with a D grade and 8 with a B. The ratio is:

= 4 : 8

Taken to the lowest form that would be:

= 1 : 2

This means that for every student receiving a D, 2 students received an A.

c. 12 students received a C and 4 students received a D. That ratio is therefore:

= 12 : 4

Take to the lowest form by dividing both sides by 4:

= 3 : 1

The arch beneath a bridge is​ semi-elliptical, a​ one-way roadway passes under the arch. The width of the roadway is 38 feet and
forsale [732]

Answer:

Only truck 1 can pass under the bridge.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all, we must do a drawing of what the situation looks like (see attached picture).

Next, we can take the general equation of an ellipse that is centered at the origin, which is the following:

\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}

where:

a= wider side of the ellipse

b= shorter side of the ellipse

in this case:

a=\frac{38}{2}=19ft

and

b=12ft

so we can go ahead and plug this data into the ellipse formula:

\frac{x^2}{(19)^2}+\frac{y^2}{(12)^2}

and we can simplify the equation, so we get:

\frac{x^2}{361}+\frac{y^2}{144}

So, we need to know if either truk will pass under the bridge, so we will match the center of the bridge with the center of each truck and see if the height of the bridge is enough for either to pass.

in order to do this let's solve the equation for y:

\frac{y^{2}}{144}=1-\frac{x^{2}}{361}

y^{2}=144(1-\frac{x^{2}}{361})

we can add everything inside parenthesis so we get:

y^{2}=144(\frac{361-x^{2}}{361})

and take the square root on both sides, so we get:

y=\sqrt{144(\frac{361-x^{2}}{361})}

and we can simplify this so we get:

y=\frac{12}{19}\sqrt{361-x^{2}}

and now we can evaluate this equation for x=4 (half the width of the trucks) so:

y=\frac{12}{19}\sqrt{361-(8)^{2}}

y=11.73ft

this means that for the trucks to pass under the bridge they must have a maximum height of 11.73ft, therefore only truck 1 is able to pass under the bridge since truck 2 is too high.
