Answer:

  $2.85

Step-by-step explanation:

The price Ellen pays can be found using the proportion ...

  price/(24 oz) = $1.90/(16 oz)

Multiplying by 24 oz, we get ...

  price = $1.90(24/16) = $2.85

Ellen pays $2.85 for the beans.

Disney held a breakfast for parents and their children to eat with Mickey mouse. adult tickets cost $17.95 and children's ticket
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The number of children attending = 324

The number of adults attending  = 176.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total number of people attending = 500

Let us assume the umber of children attending the breakfast = m

So, the number of adults attending the breakfast = 500 - m

Cost of ticket for each children  = $12.95

So, the cost of m children's tickets = m x ( Cost of 1 children ticket)

=  m x ( $12.95)  = 12.95 m .... (1)

Cost of ticket for each adult  = $17.95

So, the cost of (500 -m)  adults's tickets

= (500 - m) x ( Cost of 1 adult ticket)    = (500 -m) x ( $17.95)  

 = 8,975 - 17.95 m     .... (2)

Now, the total earnings from the total ticket sold = $7355

So, The earning from ( Adult's + children's tickets)  = $7355

⇒  12.95 m  +  8,975 - 17.95 m = $7355

or, - 5 m = 7355 - 8975 =   -1620

or, m = 1620/5 = 324

⇒  m =324

Hence the number of children attending =  m = 324

The number of adults attending = 500 - m = 500 - 324 = 176.

If f(x) = 3 – 2x and 1/x+5, what is the value of (f/g)(8)? –169 –1 13 104
Basile [38]
I'm assuming that this is the complete question.
If f(x) = 3 – 2x and g(x)=1/(x+5), what is the value of (f/g)(8)? a) –169       b) –1      c) 13     d) 104
x = 8
f(x) = 3 -2xf(8) = 3 - 2(8) = 3 - 16 = -13
g(x) = 1/(x+5)g(8) = 1/(8+5) = 1/13
(f/g)(8)f(8)/g(8) = -13/ (1/13) = -13 * 13 = -169  Choice A :)

The area of the rectangle is 64.8 square centimeters. What is the perimeter of the rectangle? One group of ten tenths and one gr
9966 [12]

Answer:

(a) Perimeter = 32.2\ cm

(b) 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a):

Given

Shape: Rectangle

Area = 64.8

Required

Calculate the perimeter.

Area is calculated as:

Area = L * W

Where

L = Length and W = Width

Substitute 64.8 for Area

64.8 = L * W

Make L the subject:

L = \frac{64.8}{W}

Perimeter is calculated as:

P = 2 * (L + W)

Substitute 64.8/W for L

P = 2 * (\frac{64.8}{W} + W)

P = \frac{129.6}{W} + 2W

To solve further, we take the derivative of P and set it to 0, afterwards.

dP = -\frac{129.6}{W^2} + 2

Set to 0

0 = -\frac{129.6}{W^2} + 2

Collect Like Terms

\frac{129.6}{W^2} = 2

Cross Multiply:

2W^2= 129.6

Divide through by 2

W^2 = 64.8

Take square roots

W = \sqrt{64.8

W = 8.05

Recall that:

L = \frac{64.8}{W}

So:

L= \frac{64.8}{8.05}\\

L= 8.05

The perimeter is:

Perimeter = 2 * (8.05 + 8.05)

Perimeter = 2 * (16.10)

Perimeter = 32.2\ cm

Solving (b):

Given

((1 Group of 10 tenths) and (1 group of 8 tenths))/(6 groups of 3 tenths)

Required

Solve

Tenths = \frac{1}{10}

So, the expression becomes:

((1 Group of 10 * \frac{1}{10}) and (1 group of 8 * \frac{1}{10}))/(6 groups of 3 * \frac{1}{10})

This gives:

((1 Group of \frac{10}{10}) and (1 group of \frac{8}{10}))/(6 groups of \frac{3}{10})

Group means product, so the expression becomes:

\frac{(1 * \frac{10}{10} \ and\ 1 * \frac{8}{10})}{6 * \frac{3}{10}}

And, as used here means addition

\frac{(1 * \frac{10}{10} +  1 * \frac{8}{10})}{6 * \frac{3}{10}}

Simplify:

\frac{(1 * 1 +  1 * 0.80)}{6 *0.30}

\frac{(1 +  0.80)}{1.80}

\frac{1.80}{1.80}

= 1.00
