The local theater has three types of seats for broadway plays: main floor, balcony, and mezzanine. main floor tickets are $⁢59, balcony tickets are $⁢50, and mezzanine tickets are $⁢40. one particular night, sales totaled $73,785. there were 435 more main floor tickets sold than balcony and mezzanine tickets combined. the number of balcony tickets sold is 78 more than 33 times the number of mezzanine tickets sold. how many of each type of ticket were sold?

Answers

Answer 1

Final answer:

10 mezzanine tickets, 408 balcony tickets, and 853 main floor tickets were sold.

Explanation:

Let's solve this problem step-by-step to find out how many of each type of ticket were sold:

Let's assume that the number of mezzanine tickets sold is x. Therefore, the number of balcony tickets sold is 33x + 78 (since it is 78 more than 33 times the number of mezzanine tickets sold).

The number of main floor tickets sold is 435 + (33x + 78) + x = 435 + 34x + 78 = 34x + 513 (since there were 435 more main floor tickets sold than balcony and mezzanine tickets combined).

The total sales amount is $73,785.

Now, we can set up an equation to solve for x:

$40x + $50(33x + 78) + $59(34x + 513) = $73,785

Simplifying the equation:

40x + 1650x + 3900 + 59(34x + 513) = 73785

40x + 1650x + 3900 + 2006x + 30567 = 73785

3696x + 34467 = 73785

3696x = 39318

x = 39318/3696

x = 10.65

Since we can't have a fraction of a ticket, we can round down to the nearest whole number. So, x = 10.

Therefore, 10 mezzanine tickets were sold, 33x + 78 = 408 balcony tickets were sold, and 34x + 513 = 853 main floor tickets were sold.

Which rate is the lowest price?
$6.30 for 9
$5.50 for 5
$4.20 for 7
$0.80 each

Answers

Answer: $4.20 for 7
This problem can be solved by dividing the pay by the number of items.

$6.30 / 9 = $0.70
$5.50 / 5 = $1.10
$4.20 / 7 = $0.60
$0.80 / 1 = $0.80

This shows that for the third option, $4.20 for 7, the rate per item is the lowest.

For a fixed amount of a gas at a constant temperature, the volume of the gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. At a pressure of 30 pounds per square inch (psi), a gas has a volume of 600 in.3. Which function can be used to model the volume of the gas y, in cubic inches, when the pressure is x psi?

Answers

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form [tex]y*x=k[/tex] or [tex]y=k/x[/tex]

Let

x-------> the pressure in PSI

y------> the volume of the gas in cubic inches

In this problem we have the point [tex](30,600)[/tex]

so

[tex]x=30\ psi\\y=600\ in^{3}[/tex]

Find the constant k

[tex]y*x=k[/tex]

substitute the values of x and y

[tex]600*30=k[/tex]

[tex]k=18,000\ lb*in[/tex]

the equation is

[tex]y=18,000/x[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]y=18,000/x[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{18000}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of gas be y

Let the pressure be x

Since we are given that the volume of the gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.

⇒[tex]y \propto \frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Let the proportionality be k

So, [tex]y=\frac{k}{x}[/tex]  ---A

Now we are given that At a pressure of 30 pounds per square inch (psi), a gas has a volume of 600 cubic inches

So, substitute x = 30

y = 600

[tex]600=\frac{k}{30}[/tex]

[tex]600 \times 30=k[/tex]

[tex]18000 =k[/tex]

Substitute the value of k in A

So,  [tex]y=\frac{18000}{x}[/tex]

Hence  function can be used to model the volume of the gas y, in cubic inches, when the pressure is x psi is    [tex]y=\frac{18000}{x}[/tex]

The required value of x is 7.

What are linear equation?

A linear equation only has one or two variables. No variables in a linear equation is raised to power greater than 1 or used as denominator of a fraction.

Now the given statement is,

Three times the difference of a number x and seven is twenty-three minus the sum of three times a number x and two.

So converting them into numerical form,

the difference of a number x and seven = x - 7

Three times the difference of a number x and seven = 3(x - 7)

Similarly,

the sum of three times a number x and two = 3x + 2

∴ Twenty-three minus the sum of three times a number x = 23 - (3x + 2)

Therefore, the required equation is,

3(x - 7) = 23 - (3x + 2)

Expanding the brackets we get,

3x - 21 = 23 - 3x - 2

or, 3x - 21 = 21 - 3x

Taking alike terms together,

3x + 3x = 21 + 21

or, 6x = 42

Dividing both side by 6 we get,

x = 7

which is the required value of x.

Thus, The required value of x is 7.

Given : A  = 24 sq feet

A = 0.5 base x height

base = x , height = x+2

1) 0.5 x(x+2) = 24 (A) 

2) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (D)

To check the rest un-wrap the bracket:

x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 24

x^2 + x^2 + 4 + 4x = 24

2x^2 + 4x - 20 = 0

x^2 + 2x - 10= 0 (NO)

Likewise:

Answers

Calculate for the mean/ average of the given numbers:
 
                             μ = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) / 5 = 3

Then, we calculate for the summation of the squares of differences of these numbers from the mean, S

Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem? (5 points

please help

Answers

A.

f is a quadratic function, which means it's graph is a parabola.

Notice that the coefficient of [tex] x^{2} [/tex] is negative, so the parabola opens downwards.

the x-coordinate of a parabola is always determined by the formula: [tex] -\frac{b}{2a} [/tex]

where a is coefficient of the [tex] x^{2} [/tex] term, and b is the coefficient of the x term.

Thus, x-coordinate of the vertex of the graph of f is :

[tex]-\frac{b}{2a}=-\frac{16}{2(-1)}=8[/tex]

the y-coordinate of the vertex is f(8)=-8*8+16*8-60=4.

The vertex is (8, 4).

This means that the maximum daily profit is when exactly 8 candles are sold.

B.

The x-intercepts are the values of x such that f(x)=0,

so to find these values we solve:

[tex]- x^{2} +16x-60=0[/tex]


[tex]x^{2}-16x+60=0[/tex]

complete the square:

[tex]x^{2}-2*8x+64-64+60=0[/tex]

[tex](x-8)^{2}-4=0[/tex]

[tex](x-8)^{2}= 2^{2} [/tex]

so x-8=2      or x-8=-2

the roots are x=10 and  x=6, are the roots.

This means that when the shop sells exactly 6 or 10 candles, it makes no profit.



Final answer:

The vertex of the profit function f(x) = -x^2 + 16x - 60 is (8, 4), meaning the maximum profit is $4 when 8 candles are sold. The x-intercepts are (6,0) and (10,0), indicating zero profit when either 6 or 10 candles are sold.

Explanation:

The function given is a quadratic equation of the form f(x) = ax2 + bx + c, where the constants are a = -1, b = 16, and c = -60. To find the vertex of the parabola, we can use the formula -b/(2a) for the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Calculate the x-coordinate of the vertex: x = -b/(2a) = -16/(2 * -1) = 8.

Substitute x = 8 into the original function to find the y-coordinate: f(8) = -(8)2 + 16(8) - 60 = -64 + 128 - 60 = 4.

The vertex is at the point (8, 4). In the context of the problem, this point represents the maximum daily profit of $4, which occurs when 8 candles are sold.

To determine the x-intercepts, we set f(x) to zero and solve for x, which represents the number of candles sold when the profit is zero.

Set the function equal to zero and solve for x: 0 = -x2 + 16x - 60.

Apply the quadratic formula x = [-b ± sqrt(b2 - 4ac)]/(2a) to find the x-intercepts. In this case, a = -1, b = 16, and c = -60.

Calculate the discriminant, sqrt(162 - 4(-1)(-60)) = sqrt(256 - 240) = sqrt(16) = 4.

Find the two x-intercepts: x = [16 ± 4]/(2 * -1) which yields x = 6 and x = 10.

The x-intercepts (6,0) and (10,0) indicate the number of candles sold at which the profit would be zero, specifically at 6 and at 10 candles sold.

A wire is first bent into the shape of a rectangle with width
4in and length 14in. Then the wire is unbent and reshaped into a square. What is the length of a side of the square?

Answers

First find the perimeter of the rectangle: 2w+2l which is 8+28=36. Then find the square root of 36 which is 6 so that is the answer.
First you have to find the area of the wire
Area of a rectangle=L*W= 14*4=56
Then divide that by 4 since a square has 4 equal sides
56/4=14
The length of a side of a square is 14 in

A new machine can make 10,000 aluminum cans three times faster than an older machine. with both machines working, 10,000 cans can be made in 9 hours. how long would it take the new machine, working alone, to make the 10,000 cans?

Answers

it takes at least 12 hours for the newer machine to make 10,000 cans

Since the new machine is three times faster, it takes (12 hours) / 3 = 4 hours for the new machine to make 10,000 cans alone.

Let's denote the time it takes the older machine to make 10,000 cans as "t" hours.

The new machine can make 10,000 cans three times faster than the older machine, which means it takes "t/3" hours for the new machine to make 10,000 cans.

When both machines are working together, they can make 10,000 cans in 9 hours.

Now, we can set up an equation based on the work rates of the two machines:

Work rate of the older machine + Work rate of the new machine = Combined work rate

The work rate is the amount of work (number of cans made) per unit of time (hours).

For the older machine:

Work rate of the older machine = 10,000 cans / t hours

For the new machine:

Work rate of the new machine = 10,000 cans / (t/3) hours

Combined work rate when both machines work together:

Combined work rate = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Now, the equation becomes:

10,000 cans / t hours + 10,000 cans / (t/3) hours = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

To solve for "t," we can start by finding a common denominator for the fractions on the left side of the equation:

t/3 is the same as (1/3)t. So the equation becomes:

10,000 cans / t hours + 10,000 cans / (1/3)t hours = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Now, to combine the fractions, we find the common denominator, which is 3t:

(3t * 10,000 cans) / (3t * t hours) + (t * 10,000 cans) / (3t * t hours) = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

(30,000t + 10,000t) / (3t^2 hours) = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Combine the terms on the left side of the equation:

40,000t / (3t^2 hours) = 10,000 cans / 9 hours

Now, cross-multiply to solve for "t":

40,000t * 9 hours = 10,000 cans * 3t^2 hours

360,000t hours = 30,000t^2 hours

Now, rearrange the equation:

30,000t^2 - 360,000t hours = 0

Divide by 30,000t to simplify the equation:

t - 12 = 0

Now, solve for "t":

t = 12 hours

Therefore, it takes the older machine 12 hours to make 10,000 cans.

A store's cost for a stereo was $27. The markup was 75%. A customer purchased it on sale at 40% off the markup price. What was the purchase price of the stereo

Answers

so the stereo costs $27, so to include a price for profit and other expenses, it gets ballooned to 75% extra, or the new price is 175%, how much is that?

if we take 27 to be the 100%, what's 175% of that?

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccllll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 27&100\\ x&175 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{27}{x}=\cfrac{100}{175}\implies \cfrac{27\cdot 175}{100}=x\implies \boxed{47.25=x}[/tex]

alrite, then a customer showed up and found it on sale, 40% off that price, so if you take out 40% from the 100%, the price the customer found it at is the 60%, 100-40,  of the current price of 47.25

so, if 47.25 is the 100%, what's 60% of that?

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccllll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 47.25&100\\ x&60 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{47.25}{x}=\cfrac{100}{60}[/tex]

solve for "x".
