Answer:

  • adult: 325
  • children's: 225

Step-by-step explanation:

It usually works well to let a variable represent the higher-value item in the mix. Here, we can let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then the total revenue is ...

  1.50a +1.00(550 -a) = 712.50

  0.50a = 162.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 550 and collect terms

  a = 325

  c = 550 -325 = 225

325 adult and 225 children's tickets were sold.

Bred has to paint a wall with 8 horizontal stripes. He has enough paint only for 5 blue, 5 red and 5 white stripes. If he can us
Kay [80]

Answer:

336

Step-by-step explanation:

Required Formulas:-

1. Number of ways to select x things out of n things = ⁿCₓ

2. Number of ways to arrange n things when a things and b things are similar = n!/(a!*b!)

Since we have to choose 8 colors and we are having 3 different colors, it is only possible when we select 2 different colors (e.g. 5 red and 3 blue). To find all possible ways we will have to find all unique arrangements of selected color.

Using formula (1), number of ways to select 2 colors out of given 3 colors = ³C₂ = 3

Using formula (2), finding all unique arrangements when 5 stripes are of one color and 3 stripes are of second color = 8!/(3!*5!) = 56

Suppose, we can choose 5 stripes from red color and 3 stripes from blue color or 5 strips from blue color and 3 strips from red color. So there are 2 possibilities of arranging every 2 colors we choose .

∴ Answer=3*56*2 = 336

Can three segments with length 4 cm, 6 cm, and 11 cm be assembled to form an acute triangle, a right triangle, or an obtuse tria
Aliun [14]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Three segments 4cm, 6cm, and 11cm cannot form a right triangle because if they could, then by Pythagorean theorem, 4^2 + 6^2 = 11^2, which is not true.

Moreover, the three segments cannot form an acute or obtuse triangle because by Triangle Inequality Theorem, the sum of two sides has to be greater than the third side. Here, (4cm + 6cm) is NOT larger than 11cm, and thus you cannot form a triangle.
