On Thursday a local shop sold a combination of 417 hamburgers and cheese burgers. The number of cheeseburgers sold was two times the number of hamburgers sold. How many burgers were sold on Thursday

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The number of hamburgers sold was 139 and the number of cheeseburgers  sold was 278.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the numbers of hamburgers sold on Thursday

y -----> the numbers of cheeseburgers sold on Thursday

we know that

x+y=417 ----> equation A

y=2x ----> equation B

Substitute the equation B in equation A and solve for x

x+2x=417

3x=417

x=139

Find the value of y

y=2(139)=278

therefore        

The number of hamburgers sold was 139 and the number of cheeseburgers  sold was 278.

The local theater is raising ticket prices by 20%. Assuming the current youth ticket price is $7.50, find out how much more the youth tickets will cost. Please Help! This is due tomorrow! I just need to know how to do it not the answer.

Answers

In order to solve this, you need to add 20% of the $7.50 TO the $7.50.
First, multiply 0.20 x $7.50 = $1.50
Then, add the $1.50 to the original $7.50 because the price is increasing by 20%, so the new price of the ticket is $9.00

Are they scaled copies or not? If so how do I find out?

Answers

1) Find the length of the diagonals of the greater rhombus

NJ=9 units

XY=6 units

Find the the ratio

NJ/XY=9/6-------> 3/2

2) Find the length of the diagonals of the smaller rhombus

HS=6 units

ZC=4 units

Find the the ratio

HS/ZC=6/4-------> 3/2

so

NJ/XY=HS/ZC--------> the rhombus are similar

the scale factor is equal to ------> 3/2=1.5

measure greater rhombus =scale factor*measure smaller rhombus

measure greater rhombus =1.5*measure smaller rhombus

measure smaller rhombus=(measure greater rhombus/1.5)

therefore

the answer is

Yes , they are a scaled copies and the scale factor is equal to 1.5
