100 tickets were sold.
The total amount of the tickets sold is = 5 * 100 = $500.
First prize given = $100
Second prize worth = $20 * 5 = $100
Total worth of prize + $100 + $100 = $200.
Net amount of tickets sold = $500 - $200 = $300
Expected price of each ticket sold = $300/100 = 3.
Therefore, the real price of each ticket sold is $3.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The conic form of the equation for a sideways parabola is
(y - k)² = 4p(x - h)
The focus is at (h + p, k)
The equation of Samara's parabola is
(y - 3)² = 8(x - 4)
h = 4
p = 8/4 = 2
k = 3
h + p = 6
So, the focus point of the satellite dish is at
Start from the end. 5+4*2. Which in turn equals 18 inches.
Let C be the amount of compost
T be the amount of topsoil
Each compost cost = $25
Cost of C compost = 25C
Each topsoil cost = $15
Cost of T topsoil = 15T
Amount of compost + amount of topsoil = 10
C + T = 10 -------> Equation 1
cost of C compost + cost of T topsoil = 180
25C + 15T = 180 --------> equation 2
Solve the first equation for C
C + T = 10
C = 10 - T
Now plug it in second equation
25C + 15T = 180
25 ( 10 - T) +15T = 180
250 - 25T + 15T = 180 (combine like terms)
250 - 10 T = 180 (Subtract 250 on both sides)
-10T = 180 - 250
-10T = -70 ( divide by -10 on both sides)
T = 7
She purchased 7 cubic yards of topsoil .
