Funtime Amusement Park charges $12.50 for administration and then $0.75 per ride. River’s Edge Park charges $18.50 for admission

and then $0.50 per ride. For what number of rides is the cost the same at both parks?

Both parks will have the same cost for 24 rides

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires linear equation to be solved.

Let a be the admission fee and r be the number of rides

Then

For Funtime PArk the expression will be:

Admission Charges =a = $12.50

Ride charges = r = $0.75

12.50+0.75r

For River's Edge Park the expression will be:

Admission Charges =a = $18.50

Ride charges = r = $0.50

18.50+0.50r

Putting both expressions equal:

12.50+0.75r=18.50+0.50r\\Subtracting\ 0.50\ from\ both\ sides\\12.50+0.75r-0.50r=18.50+0.50r-0.50r\\12.50+0.25r=18.50\\Subtracting\ 12.50\ from\ both\ sides\\12.50+0.25r-12.50=18.50-12.50\\0.25r=6\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 0.25\\\frac{0.25r}{0.25}=\frac{6}{0.25}\\r=24

Both parks will have the same cost for 24 rides

Two planes, which are 3400 miles apart, fly toward each other. Their speeds differ by 80mph. If they pass each other in 5 hours,
Andreas93 [3]

Answer : The speed of both planes is 61.25 mph and 18.75 mph  respectively.

Explanation:

Let the speed of first plane be x mph

Let the speed of second plane be y mph

Since we have given that difference of speeds is 80 mph

i.e.  x - y= 80   (Eq^n   1)

Distance between two planes = 3400 miles

As they are flying towards each other i.e. they are in the opposite direction.

So, Relative speed  will  be the sum of their speeds i.e.

Relative speed = x + y

And we know speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Speed= \frac{3400}{80}

⇒ Speed = 42.5 mph

Hence, Relative speed becomes 42.5 mph

⇒ x+y=42.5  (Eq^n   2)

Now, by using the elimination method of solving the system of equation, we  have ,

x= 61.25 mph

and y = 18.75 mph

The cost of coffee is determined by the type of coffee beans that are mixed together. The cost of a local mix of Arabica and Rob
Andreyy89

Answer:

If a mixture contains 1000 pounds of Arabica beans, there should be <u>250 pounds of Robusta beans</u> in the mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

700A+1,200R=1,000,000

700(1000) +1,200R=1,000,000 - First, plug in the A value and simplify .

700000+1,200R=1,000,000 - Then, subtract 700,000 from both sides.

1,200R=300,000 - Finally, divide by 1,200 on both sides of the equation.

R=250  - This is your value for R, or the Robusta beans.

<u>250 pounds of Robusta beans</u>

Hope this helps!

Jude says that the volume of a square pyramid with base edges of 9.7 in and a height of 9 in is equal to the volume of a cylinde
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Yes, his calculations are correct and the volumes for figures are equal

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume, V, of a square  (of side s) pyramid of height h = \frac{1}{3} \times s^2 \times h

Where:

s = 9.7 inches

h = 9 inches

We have;

V = \frac{1}{3} \times 9.7^2 \times 9 = \frac{1}{3} \times 94.09 \times 9 = \frac{1}{3} \times 846.81 = 282.27 \approx 282 \ in^3

The volume, V_c, of a cylinder of radius r = Base area × Height, h = (π×r²)×h

Where:

Base area = π×r²

r = Radius of the cylinder = 5.47 inches

h = Height of the cylinder = 3 inches

V_c = π × 5.47² × 3 = π × 29.9209 × 3 = π × 89.7627 = 281.998 ≈ 282 m³

Therefore, Jude is correct.
