PART A :OK so here is the table for the health inspector; all you are really doing is 7+7+7, and so on:
PART A: health inspector: 7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56,63,70,77,84..........
PART A:same thing for the fire inspector, except this time your adding 12+12+12, and so on:
PART A: fire inspector: 12,24,36,48,60,72,84,96.......
PART B: and to figure out what day they will both come is you have to find the LCM (least common multiple)
PART B: which in this case is Day 84
hopes this helps!!!!!
Answer: The geometric mean of 125 and 5 is 25
A dog has sharp teeth so that it can eat flesh very easily, it has four legs, two ears, two eyes, a tail, a mouth, and a nose. It is a very clever animal and is very useful in catching thieves. ... Dogs are a very faithful animal. It has a sharp mind and a strong sense of hearing smelling the things.
Explain
The answer is 110 adult tickets. Let x= student tickets and y= adult tickets.
We know that the total tickets sold was 440. That means the total number of student tickets (x) plus the total number of adult tickets (y) equaled 440. Putting it into an equation, you get:
x+y=440
Now we know that the amount of student tickets is equal to three times as many adult tickets, so in an equation that is seen as:
x=3y
In order to solve for one variable, plug in 3y for the x value of the first equation to get:
y+3y=440
then solve:
4y=440
y= 440/4
y=110
The total number of adult tickets sold was 110 tickets.
(This method used in math is technically called "Solving Systems of Equations", just fyi).
