Answer:

<u>112 children</u>

<u>180 adults</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adults = A

Let the number of children = C

A + C =292

4A + 1.5C = 888. solve for A, C

A = 292 - C

4[292 - C] + 1.5C = 888

1,168 - 4C + 1.5C = 888

-2.5C = - 280

C = -280 / -2.5

C = 112 - Number of children

292 - 112 = 180 - Number of adults

1. A movie theater designs two bags to hold 96 cubic inches of popcorn. a. Find the height of each bag b. Which bag should the t
MrRissso [65]
I have attached a screenshot with the images of the two popcorn bags used by the theater.

Part (a):
Bag A:
Volume of bag = area of base * height
Volume of bag = length * width * height
We have:
volume = 96 in³
length = 3 in
width = 4 in
Therefore:
96 = 3 * 4 * height
96 = 12 * height
height of bag A = 8 in
Bag B:
Volume of bag = area of base * height
Volume of bag = length * width * height
We have:
volume = 96 in³
length = 4 in
width = 4 in
Therefore:
96 = 4 * 4 * height
96 = 16 * height
height of bag B = 6 in

Part (b):
To determine the amount of paper needed, we will need to calculate the surface of each bag. Excluding the top base, each bag will have 5 faces. Four side faces (each two opposite are equal) and the base.
Bag A:
Surface area = area of base + 2*area of front face + 2*area of side face
Surface area = (3*4) + 2(8*4) + 2(8*3) 
Surface area = 12 + 64 + 48 
Surface area of bag A = 124 in²
Bag B:
Surface area = area of base + 2*area of front face + 2*area of side face
Surface area = (4*4) + 2(6*4) + 2(6*4) 
Surface area = 16 + 48 + 48 
Surface area of bag B = 112 in²
From the above calculations, we can deduce that the theater should choose bag B in order to reduce the amount of paper needed.

Hope this helps :)

Which triangles in the diagram are congruent?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer: triangle 1, triangle 2, and triangle 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles 1 and 3 are congruent by SAS. So, by CPCTC, all three sides are congruent, making triangle 2 congruent to them as well by SSS.

What is the product of -6x3y5 and -4y2? A. -24x3y7 B. -24x3y10 C. 24x3y7 D. 24x3y10
Leto [7]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the product of:

(-6x^3y^5)\cdot(-4y^2)

Multiply. Combine like terms:

=(-6\cdot -4)(x^3)(y^5\cdot y^2)

The first term is 24.

The second term stays as it is.

The third term will equate to y^7. Recall how to multiply exponents. The base stays constant and you add the exponents. Thus:

=24x^3y^7

Our answer is C.

And we're done!
