The movie theater sold 345 tickets to a show. If 2/3 of the tickets sold were adult tickets, which cost $13.95 each, how much money did the theater make from the sale of children’s tickets if they cost 2/3 of the amount of adult tickets? Answer with a dollar amount rounded to the nearest hundredth, placing commas in appropriate places.(1 point)

The number of adult tickets sold is (2/3)*345 = <<2/3*345=230>>230
If adult tickets cost $13.95 each, the theater made 230*$13.95 = $3208.50 from the sale of adult tickets
The price of a child's ticket is (2/3)*$13.95 = $<<2/3*13.95=9.30>>9.30
Since the theater sold 345 tickets and 230 of them were adult tickets, there were 345-230 = <<345-230=115>>115 children's tickets sold.
From the sale of children's tickets, the theater made $9.30*115 = $1069.50
In total, the theater made $3208.50 + $1069.50 = $<<3208.5+1069.5=4278>>4278 from ticket sales. Answer: \boxed{4278}.

Sure!
If 2/3 of the tickets sold were adult tickets, that means 1/3 of the tickets sold were children's tickets. Therefore, there were (1/3)*345 = 115 children's tickets sold.
Adult tickets cost $13.95 each, so the theater made 230*$13.95 = $3208.50 from selling adult tickets.
Children's tickets cost 2/3 of the amount of adult tickets, which is (2/3)*$13.95 = $9.30.
Therefore, the theater made $9.30*115 = $1069.50 from selling children's tickets.
In total, the theater made $3208.50 + $1069.50 = $4278 from ticket sales.
Louisa purchased a new snake for $199.00. Sales tax is 7.25%. What is her total bill? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)
To find the sales tax amount, we need to multiply the price of the snake ($199.00) by the sales tax rate (7.25% or 0.0725):
Sales tax = $199.00 * 0.0725 = $14.4275
To find the total bill, we need to add the price of the snake and the sales tax:
Total bill = $199.00 + $14.4275 = $213.43
Therefore, Louisa's total bill is $213.43.
Jesse buys his coworkers lunch from the local steakhouse. The food costs $105.79, and the sales tax rate is 9%. Jesse wants to leave a 20% tip based on the pre-tax amount. How much will the total be, including tax and tip?(1 point)
To calculate the sales tax, we multiply the food cost ($105.79) by the sales tax rate (9% or 0.09):
Sales tax = $105.79 * 0.09 = $9.52
To calculate the tip, we need to find 20% of the pre-tax amount. The pre-tax amount is $105.79, so the tip amount is:
Tip = $105.79 * 0.20 = $21.16
To find the total cost, we sum up the food cost, tax, and tip:
Total cost = Food cost + Sales tax + Tip
= $105.79 + $9.52 + $21.16
= $136.47
Therefore, the total cost, including tax and tip, will be $136.47.
Use the conversion ratio 1 liter equals 1,000 milliliters. A cylinder holds 6,750 milliliters. How many liters does it hold?(1 point)
To convert milliliters to liters, we divide the number of milliliters by the conversion ratio of 1 liter equals 1,000 milliliters.
Given that a cylinder holds 6,750 milliliters, we can find the number of liters it holds as follows:
Liters = 6,750 milliliters / 1,000 milliliters per liter
= 6.75 liters
Therefore, the cylinder holds 6.75 liters.
