The Freeman family is barbecuing veggie burgers, corn cobs, and mushroom caps in their local park. If 3/8 of the items barbecued or veggie burgers, and 1/3 of the items barbecued or corn cobs, what fraction of barbecued items are mushroom caps?

7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

total items barbequed = 1

Veggie burgers = 3/8

Corn cobs =1/3

Mushroom caps = x

Veggie burgers + corn cobs + x = 1

3/8 + 1/3 + x = 1

9+8 /24 + x = 1

17/24 + x = 1

x= 1 - 17/24

=24-17 /24

= 7/24

x = 7/24

Fraction of barbequed items that are mushroom's is 7/24

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130

the answer is d
