Answer:

11y = 1155

$5 raffle tickets: 105

x = 4(105) - 2

$1.5 raffle tickets: 418

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x + 5y = 1152    

x = 4y – 2

1.5(4y - 2) + 5y = 1152

6y - 3 + 5y = 1152

11y = 1155

y = 105

x = 4(105) - 2

x = 418

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x + 5y = 1152    

x = 4y – 2

We can substitute the second equation into the first equation

Which one-variable linear equation can be formed using the substitution method?

1.5(4y-2) +5y = 1152  

Distribute

6y -3 +5y = 1152

Combine like terms

11y-3 = 1152

Add 3 to each side

11y-3+3 = 1152+3

11y = 1155

Divide each side by 11

11y/11 = 1155/11

y = 105

How many $5 raffle tickets were sold?

105 5 dollar tickets were sold

Now we need to find the number of 1.50 tickets

Which equation can be used to determine how many $1.50 raffle tickets were sold?

x = 4y – 2

x = 4(105) -2

   =420-2

   = 418

How many $1.50 raffle tickets were sold?

418    $1.50 tickets were sold

Law of sines: StartFraction sine (uppercase A) Over a EndFraction = StartFraction sine (uppercase B) Over b EndFraction = StartF
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of Sines = \frac{a}{Sin A} = \frac{b}{Sin B} = \frac{c}{Sin C}

\frac{2}{Sin 30} = \frac{2}{Sin B}

\frac{2}{Sin 30} = \frac{2}{Sin 30}

Therefore, m∠B = 30°

Hope that's right and helps

For flights from a particular airport in January, there is a 30 percent chance of a flight being delayed because of icy weather.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

0.335

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There is a 30 percent chance of a flight being delayed because of icy weather ,then the probability of being delayed is 0.3 and of being not delayed is 0.7.

2. If a flight is delayed because of icy weather, there is a 10 percent chance the flight will also be delayed because of a mechanical problem, then the probability of being delayed is 0.1 and the probabilty of not being delayed is 0.9.

3. If a flight is not delayed because of icy weather, there is a 5 percent chance that it will be delayed because of a mechanical problem (MP), then the probability of being delayed is 0.05 and the probabilty of not being delayed is 0.95. (See attached probability tree)

Delayed of icy weather - 0.3

Delayed of MP when weather is not icy - 0.7·0.05=0.035

Now, if one flight is selected at random from the airport in January, the probability that the flight selected will have at least one of the two types of delays is

0.3+0.035=0.335

Given the equation −4Square root of x minus 3 = 12, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

There is no solution for the given radical equation.

x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is  

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

Squaring both sides

Divide both sides by 16

Substituting back the value of x in original equation to check the extraneous solution.

 

Since -18≠ 12. Hence, the value of x does not satisfy the equation.

Therefore, x = 225/16 is an extraneous solution.
