Answer:

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Children = $2

Students = $3

Adults = $4

Total sales = $522

Total people who attended = 177

Adults =a

Students = s= 2a

Children = c

c+s+a = 177 (1)

2c+3s+4a=522 (2)

Substitute s=2a into the equations

c + 2a + a = 177

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 3(2a) + 4a = 522

2c + 6a + 4a = 522

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

Multiply (3) by 2

2c + 6a = 354 (3b)

2c + 10a = 522

Subtract (3b) from (4)

10a - 6a = 522 - 354

4a = 168

Divide both sides by 4

a= 168/4

= 42

a= 42

s= 2a

= 2(42)

= 84

s= 84

Substitute the value of s and a into (1)

c+s+a = 177 (1)

c + 84 + 42 = 177

c + 126 = 177

c = 177 - 126

= 51

c=51

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

A bicycle wheel with diameter 16 inches rides over a screw in the street. The screw is on level ground before it punctures the b
Julli [10]

Answer:

The correct option is;

16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters of the motion given are;

The diameter, D of the bicycle = 16 inches;

The distance the bike moves (forward) after the screw punctures the tire = 56·π inches

We note that the circumference of the bicycle = π·D = π × 16 = 16·π inches

Therefore;

56·π inches/(16·π inches) = 3.5

Showing that the bicycle moves three and half complete turns (revolution) where after each complete turn, the screw starts from the bottom of the tire.

The height, h of the screw in the final half turn is given by the relation;

h = A×cos(Bx - C) + D

A = Amplitude of the motion = Diameter/2 = 16/2 = 8

P = The period of the motion 2·π/B

B·x = The angle described by the motion = Half of one revolution = π = 180°

C = Phase shift = π

D = The midline = Diameter/2 = 8 inches

Therefore;

h = 8×cos(π - π) + 8 = 16 inches

After the bike moves forward another 56·π inches the height of the screw = 16 inches.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

A - The proportion of students that like trance music but not dubstep is 10%

B - The proportion of students that like either dubstep or trance is 40%

C - The proportion of students that like neither trance music nor dubstep is 60%

D - The proportion of students that didn’t select any of the music options available on the survey was 40%

E - The proportion of students that preferred either dubstep or trance is calculated by: P(D) + P(T) - P(D and T)

F - The conditional probability that a student likes dubstep, given that he or she likes trance music, is 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

P(D)=the students preferred dubstep=30%

P(T)=the students selected trance music=25%

P(H)=the students selected house music=20%

P(D and T)=the students liked both dubstep and trance=15%

<em><u>A - The proportion of students that like trance music but not dubstep is:</u></em>

P(T) - P(D and T)=25%-15%=10%

<u><em>B - The proportion of students that like either dubstep or trance is:</em></u>

P(D) + P(T) - P(D and T) =30%+25%-15% = 40%

<u><em>C - The proportion of students that like neither trance music nor dubstep is</em></u>

100% - (P(D) + P(T) - P(D and T) ) =60%

<u><em>D - The proportion of students that didn’t select any of the music options available on the survey was:</em></u>

100% - (P(H)+P(D) + P(T) - P(D and T) ) =40%

<u><em>F - The conditional probability that a student likes dubstep, given that he or she likes trance music, is:</em></u>

\frac{P(D and T)}{P(T)} =\frac{0.15}{0.25} =0.60
