The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
Answer:
25%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let E be the event that the dart lands inside the triangle.
We have been given that a rectangular board has an area of 648 square centimeters. The triangular part of the board has an area of 162 square centimeters.
We know that probability of an event represents the chance that an event will happen.
Convert into percentage:
Therefore, the probability that dart lands inside the triangle is 25%.
Based on the given situation above, the given values are 8 kilometers and 24 minutes. To simplify these values, we will come up with the result of 1 km in 3 minutes. Therefore, the winner of the New York marathon ran 0.33 kms per one minute so the runners unit rate is 0.33kms/minute.
Answer:
4 cannot be the measure of the third side. This is because of the Triangle Inequality Theorem, which states that the sum of two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side (A+B>C, A+C>B, B+C>A) In this example, if side C were 4, side C (4) plus side A (8) would be 12. Since side B is 12, and 12 cannot be greater than 12, 4 would not work.
