Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

If we stuck with the price of $8, then we end with an income of $2400

Increasing it by $1 will decrease attendance by 20

8 x 300 = 2400

9 x 280 = 2520

10 x 260 = 2600

11 x 240 = 2640

12 x 220 = 2640

13 x 200 = 2600

We're starting to go down, so let's stop there

The ticket price of $11 or $12 appears to give the most income

I would stick with $12 since your still getting more money from one ticket

Andreyy89

Answer:

20.5 and 21.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 2 significant figures so the least it can possibly be is 0.5 less and the most it can be is 0.5 more as if it was, lets say 20.4 it would round down to 20 not 21.

forsale [732]

Answer:

3.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The retained earnings for the year is $205,000

The firm paid out $185,000 in cash dividend

It has total equity of$4.90 million

100,000 common shares are outstanding

Therefore the earnings per share van be calculated as follows

= 205,000+185,000/100,000

= 390,000/100,000

= 3.9

Hence the earnings per share is $3.9

What is the range of y = (x - 5)^2 – 1?
Setler79 [48]

1.  The graph is a parabola.

2. The parabola opens up, because there's no negative number in front of (x-5)^2.

3. The vertext is (5,-1), because of the vertex form.

This means that that -1 will be the least y-value used on the graph and the garph will open up from there.

The range is (-1, infinity) or { y | y > -1 }.

HELP ME ASAP I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS THAT WILL SAY THIS BUT HELP MEEE!!!(timed!!)
tester [92]

Answer:

1. $8.30

Step-by-step explanation:

so 3 hats were purchased and each cost 15.50 so

15.50*3=46.50

and the rest of the 96.30 is 6 keychains so

96.30-46.50=49.80

and there is 6 keychains

49.80/6=8.30

Each key chain was $8.30

Claire's answer is unreasonable because when we got the price of the keychains all together in Claire's mind the total for the keychains would be $4.98, which we clearly got the total for the keychains at $49.80.

You need a mean of at least 90 points to advance to the next round of the touch-screen trivia. What score in the fifth game will
lianna [129]

Answer:

At least 98 is needed in the 5th game

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing parameters are:

Game\ 1 = 95

Game\ 2 = 91

Game\ 3 = 77

Game\ 4 =89

Mean = 90 at least

Required

The score in game 5 to make you advance

Mean is calculated as:

Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}

So, we have:

Mean = \frac{95 + 91 + 77 + 89 + Game\ 5}{5}

Mean = \frac{352 + Game\ 5}{5}

The mean must be at least 90.

So, we have:

\frac{352 + Game\ 5}{5} \ge 90

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * \frac{352 + Game\ 5}{5} \ge 90 * 5

352 + Game\ 5 \ge 450

Make Game 5 the subject

Game\ 5 \ge450 - 352

Game\ 5 \ge 98

<em>At least 98 is needed in the 5th game</em>
