Answer:

The answer to your question is there were 88 children

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total number of people = 188

total cost = $5040

12 more adults than seniors

number of children = ?

adults = a

children = c

Process

1.- Write equations that help to solve this problem

             a + c = 188              Equation l

             a = c + 12                 Equation ll

2.- Solve by substitution. Substitute equation equation ll in equation l

           (c + 12) + c = 188

-Solve for c

            c + 12 + c = 188

            2c + 12 = 188

            2c = 188 - 12

            2c = 176

              c = 176 / 2

              c = 88

3.- Conclusion

There were 88 children

Suppose that your statistics professor returned your first midterm exam with only a z-score written on it. She also told you tha
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

A <em>z</em>-score specifies the number of standard deviations an observation is from the mean.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A z-score (aka, a standard score) specifies the number of standard deviations an observation is from the mean.  

The formula to compute the z-score is, Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}, where <em>X</em> = value of the random variable, <em>µ</em> = mean, <em>σ</em> = standard deviation.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with parameters <em>µ</em> and <em>σ</em>².

(a)

A <em>z</em>-score of 2.2 implies that the score in the first midterm exam is 2.2 standard deviations above the mean.

(b)

A <em>z</em>-score of 0.4 implies that the score in the first midterm exam is 0.4  standard deviations above the mean.

(c)

A <em>z</em>-score of 1.8 implies that the score in the first midterm exam is 1.8  standard deviations above the mean.

(d)

A <em>z</em>-score of 1.0 implies that the score in the first midterm exam is 1.0  standard deviations above the mean.

(e)

A <em>z</em>-score of 0 implies that the score in the first midterm exam is 0  standard deviations above the mean. That is the score in the first midterm exam is same as the mean score.

Describe the general properties of rotations. Include a discussion of the properties of rigid transformations, and line segments
Alex777 [14]

Sample Response: Rotations are rigid transformations, which means they preserve the size, length, shape, and angle measures of the figure. However, the orientation is not preserved. Line segments connecting the center of rotation to a point on the pre-image and the corresponding point on the image have equal length. The line segments connecting corresponding vertices are not parallel.

Given the values of the linear functions f (x) and g(x) in the tables, where is (f – g)(x) positive?
alexandr402 [8]

Comparing the functions, from the tables, it is found that (f - g)(x) is positive in the interval (–∞, 9) .

----------------------

  • For the subtraction function, we simply subtract both functions, thus:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

  • It is positive if f is greater than g, that is: f(x) > g(x).
  • It is a linear function, so one function is greater before the equality, one after.
  • They are equal at x = 9.
  • If x < 9, f(x) > g(x), and thus, (f - g)(x) is positive, which means that the desired interval is:

(–∞, 9)
