Please answer: The Maxwell children have hired a caterer to provide food for an anniversary party for their parents. The caterer has quoted a price of $96 per person and is asking for an advance payment of one-fourth of the total bill. If the advance payment is $1200, how many guests are invited to the party?

Answers

Answer 1

In the exercise Maxwell children want to calculate the estimated amount or budget placed on one person coming to the  anniversary party for their parents.

The number if guest will be 50 guests

Given data

quoted price = $96 per person

Let the total bill be x

one-fourth of the total bill = 1/4*x

advance payment is $1200 = 1/4x------------1

Let us find the total bill which is x

$1200 = 1/4x

cross multiply

1200*4 = x

x = 4800

if the budget per person is $96

Hence the total expected guest will be = 4800/96

50 guests

Question Write an equation of the line passing through the point A(0, 3) that is perpendicular to the line y = −1/2x−6

Answers

Answer:

The equation would be y=2x+3 I am pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because you take the slope which is 2 from the line y=-1/2x-6. To find the slope perpendicular to the line, you need to find the exact opposite of the slope: -1/2, and in this case, it would be 2.

(Ex: if it was -3/4, you would need to use a slope of 4/3 since it is the opposite)

Then you take that slope (2) and the point (0, 3) and put it into "y-y1=m(x-x1)"

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-3=2(x-0)

-distribute the 2-

y-3=2x-0

-add 3 on both sides-

so equation would be y=2x+3

Not sure if this is all correct, but I hope it helps! :)

At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.50 and adult admission is $8.90. On Friday four times as many adults tickets as child tickets were sold, for a total sales of $986.40. How many child tickets were sold that day?

Answers

Answer:

You can use grouping, quantity and value to solve this question.

Child admission = $5.50

Adult admission = $8.90

Friday sales (Quantity):

Child = x

Adult = 4x

Total sales = 5x

Friday sales (Value):

Child = $5.50

Adult = 4 × $8.90

         = $35.60

Total sales = $986.40

1 group = $5.50 + $35.60

            = $41.10

Number of groups = $986.40 ÷ $41.10

                               = 24

The number of child tickets sold is 24.

What is the slope and y-intercept that represents this table?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m=-2\ 000; q=17\ 000[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, whoever formatted that table is a criminal.

Now, slope first, it's the easiest: the slope in a table like that is the difference between two consecutive position: ie [tex]13\ 000 - 15\ 000[/tex] or [tex]11\ 000-13\ 000[/tex], being careful of subtracting the higher position (not value!) minus the lower, or right minus left. Your slope thus is [tex]-2 \ 000[/tex]. Intercept is found in two ways. One is writing the line in point slope form based on any two values and the slope we found, or since we're jumping integer to integer, you can look at the table in reverse and notice that if you go backwards (ie from 4 to 3 to 2 to 1) the value is increasing by 2000 every time. The intercept [tex]q[/tex]will be the value at 0, or 17 000

An angle measures 152° more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

° and
°


Answers

Answer:

14° and 166°

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so a supplementary angle is 180°.

Let's say one angle is x and the other angle is x+152.

We know these angles add up to a supplementary angle (180°) so...

x+(x+152)=180

x+x+152=180

2x+152=180

2x=28

x=14

So now we know one angle is 14°, we also know the other angle is x+152, knowing that x=14 we can plug it in 14+152= 166° for the other angle.

Hope this helps :)

Two supplementary angles when added together need to equal 180 degrees.
Let the first angle = X
The second angle would then be X - 152
Add them together to equal 180:
X + X - 152 = 180
Simplify:
2X -152 = 180
Add 152 to each side:
2X = 332
Divide both sides by 2:
X = 332 / 2
X = 166
The first angle = X = 166 degrees.
The second angle = X - 152 = 166 - 152 = 14 degrees.
The angles are 166 and 14

First National Bank is offering 4.25% interest on an account. Susan makes an
initial deposit of $20,000. Calculate the interest camed over 20 years if the
bank...
a) Calculates the interest using simple interest (I -- Prt).
b) Calculates the interest using compound interest compounded annually.
c) Calculates the interest using compound interest compounded quarterly.
d) Calculates the interest using compound interest compounded monthly.

Answers

The simple interest earned is  $17,000.

The interest earned with annual compounding is $25,978.13.

The interest earned with quarterly compounding is $26,583.59.

The interest earned with monthly compounding is $26,722.72.

The formula that can be used to determine simple interest is: principal x time x interest rate

$20,000 x 20 x 0.0425 = $17,000

The formula that can be used to determine the interest earned with compounding is: Future value - amount invested.

The formula that can be used to determine future value is:

FV = P (1 + r/m)^nm

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

m = number of compounding

N = number of years

Annual compounding = $20,000 x (1.0425)^20 = $45,978.13

Interest earned = $45,978.13 - $20,000 =  $25,978.13

Quarterly compounding = $20,000 x (1 + 0.0425/4)^80 = $46,583.59

Interest earned = $46,583.59  - $20,000 = $26,583.59

Monthly compounding = $20,000 x (1 + 0.0425 /12) ^240 = $46,722.72

Interest earned = $46,722.72 - $20,000 = $26,722.72

So you’re basically looking for something that’s equivalent to 120

CHOICE A.

5 * (5 * 6)

= 5 * 30

= 150

So, Choice A is probably NOT the answer you’re looking for!

CHOICE B.

Choice B. is probably the answer you’re probably looking for.

Answers

Answer:

  36

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of renting n movies using Plan A is ...

  c = 10 +2.50n

The cost of renting n movies using Plan B is ...

  c = 4 +3(n -4) . . . . for n ≥ 4

The two costs are equal when ...

  4 +3(n -4) = 10 +2.50n

  0.50n = 18 . . . . . . . . . . add 8 -2.50n and simplify

  n = 36 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

A person would have to rent 36 movies to spend the same using either plan.
