carlos had 24 class play tickets to sell. he sold 3/4 of the tickets. how many tickets did carlos sell

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 18 because 4 x 6 is 24 so you would multiply 3 x 6 and get 18
Answer 2
Answer: Carlos sold 18 tickets because 

The answer is 18 but let me explain why that is. First of all let's assume (because it's true) that 3/4 is the same as saying 3/4 of one which is the same as saying 3/4 x 1 the answer then to that is 3/4 (go figure) so then using this logic we can say that 3/4 of 24 is the same as 3/4 x 24, which is an easy expression to evaluate if you have a calculator, but what if you don't, then what? Then you have to evaluate, 3/4 x 24 is the same as saying 3 x 24 = 72, then taking 72 and dividing by 4 which will give you 18, the answer. So I hope you can see the connection here, again if we have 3/4 of one we know that's the same as 3/4 x 1 which is equal to 1 x 3 = 3 then divided by 4 which is 3 divided by 4 which is the same as, you guessed, 3/4. Hope that helps, good luck with math in the future.

A cylinder has a radius of 10 cm and a height of 8 cm.What is the volume of the cylinder?

Answers

Volume of a cylinder = πr² h
V = volume
R = radius
H = height
² = squared

radius = 10 cm
Height = 8 cm

V = π10²×8
V ≈ 3.14 * 100*8 
V ≈ 2512 
Volume of cylinder = πr²h

r = 10cm,  h = 8 cm.

Volume = π*10²*8 = π*100*8 = 800π

Volume = 800π cm³  or  ≈ 800*3.142 ≈ 2513.6

Volume ≈ 2513.6 cm³

Why might someone choose to use the Y intercept in the slope to graph a line

Answers

Because Y-intercept shows where the line intersects with the y-axis. It's easier to graph if you have a starting point. Something to go off of and use the slope to continue the line.

Prove using algebra that the difference between the squares of consecutive odd numbers is always a multiple of 8.

Answers

Answer:

See  below

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets label the consecutive odd numbers as 2n+1 and 2n+3 where n is an integer.

We need to prove that

((2n + 3)^2 - (2n + 1)^2 is a multiple of 8.

Using the difference of 2 squares on the left side:-

(2n + 3 + 2n + 1)(2n + 3 -  (2n + 1)

=  (4n + 4)(2)

= 8n + 8  which is a multiple of 8  

Final answer:

The difference between squares of consecutive odd numbers can be expressed as 4n+4 which is a multiple of 8.

Explanation:

Let's take two consecutive odd numbers. We can express an odd number as 2n+1 where n is any integer. So, the consecutive odd number will be 2n+3 (adding 2 to the previous one).

Now, the squares of these consecutive numbers are (2n+1)² and (2n+3)² respectively.

The difference between these squares is (2n+3)² - (2n+1)². Applying the formula a² - b² = (a+b)(a-b), we get 4n+4 as the answer which is a multiple of 8 as 8 divides it without a remainder.

So the difference between the squares of consecutive odd numbers is a multiple of 8.

Andrew is trying to create a number puzzle for his younger sister to solve. He challenges his sister to find the mustery number. when 4 is subtracted from half a number the result is 5. The equation to represent the mystery number is 1/2m -4 =. Andrews sister tries to guess the mustery number. Her first gues is 30. Is she correct? why or why not? What is the correct answer?

Answers

She is not correct b/c if you solve the problem the mystery number is 18.

1/2m-4=5
+4 +4
1/2m=9 divide 9 by 1/3

m=18

You can check by replacing the m with 18 in the original equation and it will equal to 5.

ERROR ANALYSIS Describe and correct the error in finding the x-intercept.-2x + 3y = 12

-2(0) + 3y = 12

3y = 12

y=4

Answers

The x-intercept is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the x-intercept, we put y = 0 and to find the y-intercept we put x = 0

In the given method, x is put equal to zero instead of y as x-intercept had to be found.

Given equation is:

-2x+3y=12

-2x + 3(0) = 12\n-2x +0 = 12\n-2x = 12

Dividing both sides by -2

(-2x)/(-2) = (12)/(-2)\nx = -6

The x-intercept is -6
