Answer:

General admissions sold: 880

Reserved seating sold: 256

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation:

Variable x = people who bought general admission

Variable y = people who bought reserved seating

x + y = 1136

5x + 7y = 6192

Isolate a variable in any equation:

Y = 1136 - x

Substitute the value of the variable in the other equation:

5x + 7(1136 - x) = 6192

5x + 7952 - 7x = 6192

-2x + 7952 = 6192

-2x = -1760

x = 880

Substitute the value of x in any equation:

880 + y = 1136

y = 256

Check your work:

880 + 256 = 1136

1136 = 1136

Correct!

5(880) + 7(256) = 6192

4400 + 1792 = 6192

6192 = 6192

Correct!

A grocery store manager uses 1/2 crate of apples for every 3/4 crate if oranges in a fruit display. How many crates of oranges w
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion question

It says 1/2 crates of apple are used for every 3/4 crates of oranges

For 5/2 crates of apple, x crates of oranges will be needed.

To get x, we simply multiply 1/2 by x and equate it to 3/4 multiplied by 5/2

This means: 0.5x = 0.75 × 2.5

x = ( 0.75 × 2.5 ) ÷ 0.5 = 3.75

Hence for 5/2 crates for apple, she will need 15/4 crates of oranges.

Max invests some money in a savings bond.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

£5650

Step-by-step explanation:

The money max invested in the saving bond = x

After one year the intrest will be 2% of x

Amount = £5763

Amount = Principcal + Interest

= £5763 = x + 2% multiplied x

£5763 = x + 2x/100

= 50x/50 + x/50 = 5763

= 51x/50 = £5763

51x = 5763x50

51x = 288, 150

x = 288,150/51

x = 5650

So the money max invested = £5650

Help I’m stuck on this question I’ve been stuck on it for a while I can’t seem to figure it out please help for ten points
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

\frac{1}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

I think what it is trying to say is that it wants the solution to multiplying all of those. The (...) simply means that it wants you to continue that pattern in what you are supposed to be multiplying, but stop at \frac{24}{25}.

That would mean you are technically supposed to be multiplying:

\frac{1}{2}  \frac{2}{3} \frac{3}{4} \frac{4}{5} \frac{5}{6} \frac{6}{7} \frac{7}{8} \frac{8}{9} \frac{9}{10} \frac{10}{11} \frac{11}{12} \frac{12}{13} \frac{13}{14} \frac{14}{15} \frac{15}{16} \frac{16}{17} \frac{17}{18} \frac{18}{19} \frac{19}{20} \frac{20}{21} \frac{21}{22} \frac{22}{23} \frac{23}{24} \frac{24}{25}

That is a lot and unfortunately, none of the individual fractions can be simplified within that. The final answer would be able to be simplified, though.

Multiplying the first four shown: \frac{1}{2}\frac{2}{3} \frac{3}{4} \frac{4}{5} you end up with \frac{24}{120}. Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 24. Dividing top and bottom would simplify this to \frac{1}{5}.

Now, let's take the next four.

\frac{5}{6}\frac{6}{7} \frac{7}{8} \frac{8}{9} allows you to end up with \frac{1680}{3024}. Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 336. You are left with \frac{5}{9}.

Now, let's take the next four.

\frac{9}{10}\frac{10}{11} \frac{11}{12} \frac{12}{13}. Multiplying these gives you \frac{11880}{17160}. Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 1320. You are left with \frac{9}{13}.

Now, let's take the next four.

\frac{13}{14}\frac{14}{15} \frac{15}{16} \frac{16}{17}. Multiplying these gives you \frac{43680}{57120}. Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 3360. You are left with \frac{13}{17}.

*<em> Although I would continue to say let's take the next four, there appears to be a pattern in the simplification. The numerators we have gotten have all been four less than their denominators, and each numerator has been four more than the last. I cannot be certain, but we only have two sets of four left. If this pattern continues, the simplifications of each should be \frac{17}{21} and \frac{21}{25}. I will continue on for argument's sake, anyways.</em>

The next four are \frac{17}{18}\frac{18}{19} \frac{19}{20} \frac{20}{21}. Multiplying these, you are left with \frac{116280}{143640}. Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 6840. We are left with\frac{17}{21}. This is the exact guess I had made when following the pattern, and so the next one is most likely going to be the other guess as well.

Our final answer will be \frac{1}{5}\frac{5}{9} \frac{9}{13} \frac{13}{17}\frac{17}{21} \frac{21}{25} all multiplied together. We end up with \frac{208845}{5221125}. Both the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom) are divisible by 208845.

Simplified, your final answer is:  \frac{1}{25}.

* <u>NOTE:</u> that another way to solve this would just be to multiply all numbers from 1-24 together and then 2-25, but you would end up with a very large number that would be just as time consuming to simplify. To get the GCF fast, I used a GCF calculator.
