San Pablo is having a festival. Tickets for children under 12 cost $2, adult tickets are $6 and senior citizen tickets are $3. One sixth of the tickets sold were children’s tickets. The 40 senior citizens with tickets sat in the shade under the trees and watched the children play. Half the people attending the festival purchased adult tickets. How much money was collected from ticket sales?
Answers
Answer 1
Answer:
The total of tickets sold would be 100% or 1, so we have 1/6 of total tickets for kids and 1/2 of total of tickets for adults, for finding the part of tickets sold for seniors we calculate: 1/6 + 1/2 + x = 1 here x is the part of tickets for seniors.
Solve for x: x=1/3.
Now let total of tickets be "T", we know the amount of tickets sold for seniors (40) so we can say: 1/3*T = 40, solve for T and get T = 40*3 = 120 tickets sold.
Finally we can calculate the money collected from tickets sold multiplying the cost*the part of tickets sold for each group*120 and add all of them, this is:
$2*1/6*120 + $6*1/2*120 + $3*1/3*120 = $40 + $360 + $120 = $520
The money collected from ticket sales is: $520
Solve for x: x=1/3.
Now let total of tickets be "T", we know the amount of tickets sold for seniors (40) so we can say: 1/3*T = 40, solve for T and get T = 40*3 = 120 tickets sold.
Finally we can calculate the money collected from tickets sold multiplying the cost*the part of tickets sold for each group*120 and add all of them, this is:
$2*1/6*120 + $6*1/2*120 + $3*1/3*120 = $40 + $360 + $120 = $520
The money collected from ticket sales is: $520

Help with this question? I got half of it, but can't seem to get the other half. Please explain how you got your answer. Thanks!1. The equation of a plane in space is x + 3y + 2z = 6.a.) Accurately sketch the plane on the set of axes, showing all your calculations below.b.) The three planes of the axes and the plane you have sketched create a triangular pyramid. Find the volume of this pyramid, showing the formula you are using and all calculations below. My Answer:a. I started off by finding my x-intercept. To find my x-intercept I substituted y and z with 0. So: x + 3(0) + 2(0) = 6. After multiplying and adding, I end up with x = 6. So my x-intercept is (6, 0, 0,). T find my y-intercept I substituted x and z with 0. So: 0 + 3y + 2(0) = 6. After multiplying and adding, we come up with 3y = 6. Now we divide each side by 3 to get y = 2. So my y-intercept is (0, 2, 0). To find my z-intercept, I substituted x and y with 0. So, 0 + 3(0) + 2z = 6. After multiplying and adding, I get 2z = 6. Now I divide each side by 2 to get z = 3. So my z-intercpet is (0, 0, 3). After I plotted the points and connected them, they formed a triangular pyramid. So thats how much i got. I cant seem to figure out how to get the volume. please help.

Answer:
7h - 15h + 40 = -72
-8h + 40 = -72
take +40 on the other side of equation
-8h = -72-40
-8h = -112
h = -112/-8
h = 14

It is called effective interest rate.
For example, you invest in a bond wich pays 5% annual interest rate and it compounds semiannually.
The first semester you win 2.5% over the capital invested and in the second semester you win 2.5% over the capital plus the interested earned in the first semester. Then the effecive interest rate is higher than 5%.
