Let's call the prices a and c, a for adult...

The cost of an adult ticket is £7 more than the cost of a child ticket:

a = 7 + c

The total cost of the six tickets is £86.

86 = 2a + 4c

c = a-7

86 = 2a + 4(a-7) = 6a - 28

114 = 6a

a = 19

Answer: £19

Check:

That implies c=12.

2a+4c = 2(19)+4(12) = 38 + 48 = 86, good

There are 135 people in a sport centre. 77 people use the gym. 62 people use the swimming pool. 65 people use the track. 27 peop
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is \frac{2}{9}.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 135 people in a sport centre.

Let the experiment be to pick a person from the sport centre who only uses exactly one of the facilities.

Total number of possible outcomes = 135

For the gym:

77 people use the gym.

27 people use the gym and the pool.

31 people use the gym and the track.

4 people use all three facilities.

Total number of people using only the gym are 77 - ( 27 + 31 + 4) = 15

For the swimming pool:

62 people use the swimming pool.

27 people use the gym and the pool.

23 people use the pool and the track.

4 people use all three facilities.

Total number of people using only the swimming pool are 62 - ( 27 + 23 + 4) = 8

For the tracks:

65 people use the track.

23 people use the pool and the track.

31 people use the gym and the track.

4 people use all three facilities.

Total number of people using only the tracks are 65 - ( 23 + 31 + 4) = 7

A person is selected at random.

Favorable outcomes = 7 + 8 + 15 = 30

Probability that the person uses exactly one of the facilities = \frac{Favorable}{Total} = \frac{30}{135}  = \frac{2}{9}.

Eric works for an airline, and he needs to calculate the weight of passengers and luggage before takeoff. The number of
igomit [66]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the question, here are the answer choices:

<em>A)  =A1*A2*A3*A4 </em>

<em>B)  =A1*A2+A3+A1*A4 </em>

<em>C)  =A1*(A2+A3+A1)*A4 </em>

<em>D)  =A1*A2+(A3+A1)*A4</em>

<em />

We first need to multiply A1 and A2, this will give weight of passengers.

To get weight of luggage, we multiply A1 and A4.

We also need the checked weight to add to that, which is in A3. So then we add up A3 with those 2.

So we will get

A1*A2 + A1*A4 + A3

This is given in a different order in Option B. Hence, option B is right.

Identify the segment bisector of JK
nordsb [41]

Answer:

A segment whose length is 9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

A segment whose length is 9 units.

All we have is a bisection that divides equally segment JK in two parts. And M is the Midpoint what reassures us that JM=MK, so plugging in:

3x+15=8x+25

3x-8x=25-15

-5x=10

5x=-10

x=-2

JM=3(-2)+15 =9

MK=8(-2)+25=9
