Answer:

\boxed{\bf\: The  \: park  \: sold  \boxed{ 34{}} \: child  \: tickets.}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Percentage of Tickets sold at a water park - 68%

The Number of Tickets if the park sold in all - 50

<u>To </u><u>Find:</u>

The Number of child tickets the park sold.

<u>Solution:</u>

We know that 68% equals to 68/100.

Step 1: Multiply 68/100 by 50 which is the number of tickets the park sold :-

\sf \:  =  \:  \cfrac{68}{100}  \times 50

<u>Note</u>:The Simplified form of 68/100 * 50 would be the answer to this question.

Step 2: <u>Cancel One zero of 50 and one zero of 100,That is</u>:-

\sf =  \cfrac{68}{ 10\cancel0}  \times 5 \cancel0

<em>Results to,</em>

\sf  = \cfrac{68}{10}  \times 5

Step 3: <u>Cancel 5 and 10, That is</u>:-

\sf  = \cfrac{68}{ \cancel{10 }}  \times  \cancel5

<em>Results to,</em>

\sf =\:  \cfrac{68}{2}  \times 1

\sf = \cfrac{68}{2}

Step 4: <u>Cancel 68 and 2, That is</u>:-

\sf =\:  \cfrac{ \cancel{68}}{ \cancel2}

<em>Results to,</em>

\sf  =  \cfrac{34}{1}

\sf  = 34

34 is the result.

Hence,

\underline{ \rm \: The  \: park  \: sold  \: \bold{ 34 } \: child  \: tickets.}

Maggie’s brother is three years younger than twice her age. The sum of their ages is 24. How old is maggie?
JulsSmile [24]

To solve this problem, we must set up a system of equations. In this case, let's let Maggie's age be represented by the variable m and her brother's age be represented by the variable b. We are told that the sum of their ages is 24, which gives us our first equation: m + b = 24. We can construct our next equation from the first sentence of given information: b = 2m - 3. This makes our system of equations:

m + b = 24

b = 2m - 3

To solve, we are going to substitute the value for b in terms of m given by the second equation into the first equation for the variable b.

m + b = 24

m + 2m - 3 = 24

To simplify, we must first combine the variable terms on the left side of the equation using addition.

3m - 3 = 24

Next, we should add 3 to both sides of the equation to get the variable term alone on the left side of the equation.

3m = 27

Finally, we should divide both sides by 3 in order to get the variable m alone.

m = 9

Therefore, Maggie is 9 years old (using the first equation and substituting in this value you can find that her brother is 15 years old).

Hope this helps!

From a point on a cliff 75 feet above water level, an observer can see a shipThe angle of depression to the ship is d^ How far i
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

52feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will be a right angle

Let the angle of depression be 30°

The height above the sea level will be the opposite

The distance of the ship from the base is x (adjacent)

Using TOA

Tan theta = opposite/adjacent

Tan 30 = 30/x

x = 30/tan 30

x = 30/0.5774

x = 51.96

x ≈ 52 feet to the nearest foot
