Interesting problem.
First - let's figure cost of each uniform at purchase.
3,000/40 = $75 each
When some uniforms were returned at $40 - there was a difference of $35 in what they paid and what they rec'd in return. ($75 - 35 = $40)
Answer:
The area of APC is 70m². The area of triangle PMC is 35m².
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the area of triangle ABC be x.
It is given that AM is median, it means AM divides the area of triangle in two equal parts.
.....(1)
The point P is the midpoint of AB, therefore the area of APC and BPC are equal.
......(2)
The point P is midpoint of AB therefore the line PM divide the area of triangle ABM in two equal parts. The area of triangle APM and BPM are equal.
.....(3)
The area of triangle APM is 35m².
Therefore the area of triangle ABC is 140m².
Using equation (2).
Therefore the area of triangle APC is 70m².
Using equation (3), we can say that the area of triangle BPM is 35m² and by using equation (2), we can say that the area of triangle BPC is 70m².
Therefore the area of triangle PMC is 35m².
Hello!
For a:
How I would do this, is I would first say if all 46 animals (heads) were chickens, how many legs would there be? Each chicken has 2 legs, so 46 * 2 = 92. The total amount of legs is 96 as stated in the question, so if all of the animals were chickens, the farmer would be 4 legs short.
Now to add rabbits into the equation. Rabbits have 4 legs, and chickens have 2. You want to find the difference between the two, because as you add rabbits to the animals the farmer has, then you have to take away chickens at the same time. 4-2 = 2, so for each rabbit you replace, you add 2 legs.
Since the farmer is 4 legs short with all chickens, then you just divide that 4 by the 2 legs you add by replacing a chicken with a rabbit.
4 / 2 = 2 rabbits
So that means there are 2 rabbits. Since there are 46 heads in total, if 2 are rabbits, that means there are 44 chickens.
So there are 44 chickens and 2 rabbits.
b)
You can follow the same steps: I'm assuming all are child tickets for now:
3.05 * 100 = $305
And now you find how much money short you are.
498.6 - 305 = 193.6
Next, you find the difference in the ticket costs.
5.25 - 3.05 = 2.20
And you divide to find the number of adult tickets.
193.6 / 2.2 = 88
Since 100 tickets were sold, and 88 adult tickets were sold, that means 12 child tickets were sold.
