Answer:

102 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the total number of tickets sold is n.

7n = 2142

n = 2142 ÷ 7

n = 306

They sold 306 tickets in total.

We want to know how much they sold per night. We know they sold the same number of tickets each night for three nights.

306 ÷ 3 = 102

Therefore, they sold 102 tickets each night.

I hope this helps :)

In the △ABC, the height AN = 24 in, BN = 18 in, AC = 40 in. Find AB and BC. Consider all possible cases. Case 1 : N∈BC, AB = __,

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Case 1:

$AB = 30$

$BC = 50$

Case 2:

$AB = 15.9$

$BC = 36.7$

Case 3: Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for illustration of each case

Required

Find AB and BC

Case 1:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

$AB^2 = AN^2 + BN^2$

This gives:

$AB^2 = 24^2 + 18^2$

$AB^2 = 576 + 324$

$AB^2 = 900$

Take square roots of both sides

$AB = \sqrt{900$

$AB = 30$

To calculate BC, we consider ANC, where:

$AC^2 = AN^2 + NC^2$

$40^2 = 24^2 + NC^2$

$1600 = 576 + NC^2$

Collect like terms

$NC^2 = 1600 - 576$

$NC^2 = 1024$

Take square roots

$NC = \sqrt{1024$

$NC = 32$

So:

$BC = NC + BN$

$BC = 32 + 18$

$BC = 50$

Case 2:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

$AN^2 = AB^2 + BN^2$

This gives:

$24^2 = AB^2 + 18^2$

$576 = AB^2 + 324$

Collect like terms

$AB^2 = 576 - 324$

$AB^2 = 252$

Take square roots of both sides

$AB = \sqrt{252$

$AB = 15.9$

To calculate BC, we consider ABC, where:

$AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

$40^2 = 252 + BC^2$

$1600 = 252 + BC^2$

Collect like terms

$BC^2 = 1600 - 252$

$BC^2 = 1348$

Take square roots

$BC = \sqrt{1348$

$BC = 36.7$

Case 3:

This is not possible because in ANC

The hypotenuse AN (24) is less than AC (40)
