Answer: The equation to determine the normal price of each cookie is : 7(c-0.75) = 2.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the correct form of the answer is:

<em>Cookies are on sale! Today each cookie costs $0.75 less than normal price. Right now if you buy 7 of them it will only cost you $2.80! </em>

<em>Write an equation to determine the normal price of each cookie (c) </em>

So, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

The normal price of a cookie is "c", if each cookie cost $0.75 less than the normal price, it means:

(c -0.75) = today’s price of a cookie

If you buy 7 of them, 7(c-0.75), it will cost $2.80.

Mathematically speaking:

7(c-0.75) = 2.80

Solving for c  :

7c - 5.25 =2.80

7c = 2.80 +5.25

7c = 8.05

c = 8.05/7= 1.15

The normal price of each cookie is $1.15.

A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle and
andriy [413]

Answer: 76.19\%

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: " A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle, and the stalls. The ratio of the number of seats in the circle to a number of seats in the stalls is 2:5. Last Friday, the audience occupied all the 528 seats in the circle and \frac{2}{3} of the seats in the stalls. What is the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday?"</h3>

Let be "s" the total number of seats in the Stalls.

The problem says that the ratio of the number of seats in the Circle to the number of seats in the Stalls is 2:5.

Since the number of seats that were occupied last Friday was 528 seats, we can set up the following proportion:

\frac{2}{5}=\frac{528}{s}

Solving for "s", we get:

s*\frac{2}{5}=528\\\\s=528*\frac{5}{2}\\\\s=1,320

So the sum of the number of seats in the Circle and the number of seats in the Stalls, is:

Total=1,320\ seats+528\ seats=1,848\ seats

 We know that \frac{2}{3} of the seats in the Stalls were occupied. Then, the number of seat in the Stalls that were occupied is:

(1,320)(\frac{2}{3})=880

Therefore, the total number of seats that were occupied las Friday is:

Total\ occupied=880\ seats+528\ seats=1,408\ seats

Knowing this, we can set up the following proportion, where "p" is the the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday:

\frac{100}{1,848}=\frac{p}{1,408}

Solving for "p", we get:

(1,408)(\frac{100}{1,848})=p\\\\p=76.19\%

the local volleyball team hosts a concession stand to raise money. They can spend $120 to purchase popcorn, candy, and drinks. t
Art [367]
To solve this question, I did an equation:
0.75x + 1.20y = 120
0.75(95) + 1.20(35) = 120
Then multiply:
71.25 + 42 = 120
Now to check:
71.25 + 42 = 113.25
Answer: 120 - 113.25 = $6.75 Hope this helps

Which is a stretch of an exponential growth function? f(x) = Two-thirds (two-thirds) Superscript x f(x) = Three-halves (two-thir
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

f(x) = Three-halves (three-halves) Superscript x

f(x) = Two-thirds (three-halves) Superscript x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a function in the form of f(x) = ab^x

Where, a and b are any constant,

is called exponential function,

There are two types of exponential function,

  • Growth function : If b > 1,
  • Decay function : if 0 < b < 1,

Since, In

f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{2}{3})^x

\frac{2}{3} < 1

Thus, it is a decay function.

in f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{2}{3})^x

\frac{2}{3} < 1

Thus, it is a decay function.

in f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{3}{2})^x

\frac{3}{2} > 1

Thus, it is a growth function.

in f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{3}{2})^x

\frac{3}{2} > 1

Thus, it is a growth function.
