Step-by-step explanation and the Answer:

Let x= the number of adult tickets purchased and let y= the number of child tickets purchased. We know that 1) A local amusement park charges $21.50 per daily adult ticket and $14.75 per daily child's ticket. 2) A group of 12 people paid $204 for tickets. So x+y=12 is equation 1 and 21.50x+14.75y=204 is equation 2. So therefore the answer is D. x+y=12\\21.50x+14.75y=204

OR

Even though you didn't provide options from which to choose, you don't need them to figure out the system.  We need an equation that involves the NUMBER of people and then we need an equation that involves the MONEY earned.  Two different things here. As for the number of people, we know that the number of adult tickets + the number of children = 12 people, so x+y=12 is the first equation. Now for the money 21.50x + 14.75y = 204 is the 2nd equation.  So therefore your system is D. x+y=12\\21.50x+14.75y=204

Your friend Michelle just graduated and has two job offers that she is considering. Both job offers pay the same, but JobA
just olya [345]

Money offered to Michelle per annum in Job A = $1700

Number of years she will work in job A = 5

Percentage of earnings per annum for her retirement plan = 6.60%

Money she will earn will be the simple interest at the end of 5 years.

We know that :

\color{plum}{ \tt{Simple \:  interest  =  \frac{Principle  \ \: \times  \: Rate  \:  \: \times \:  \:  Time}{100} }}

Principal = $1700

Rate = 6.60%

Time = 5 years

Which means :

=  \frac{1700 \times 6.60 \times 5}{100}

=  \frac{56100}{100}

= \color{plum}\$561

We also know that :

\color{plum}\tt \: Amount = Principal + Interest

Amount Michelle will earn at the end of 5 years for her retirement plan :

= 1700 + 561

=\color{plum}\bold{\$ 2261}

2261 can be rounded off to 2260.

Therefore, Michelle will earn <u>$2260</u> at the end of 5 years for her retirement plan.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangle has 4 corners of 90 degrees.

Here a rectangle is divided into two right triangles. In right-angled triangles, the opposite side at a 30-degree angle is half a chord...I replace x instead of length.. So x / 2 = 4--->x:8

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to (length + width) × 2--->(8+4)×2=24m^2
