A theater is showing a ballet performance. Tickets are available for three levels in the performance hall. Lower level tickets c

ost $35, mezzanine tickets cost $25, and upper balcony tickets cost $15. For a certain performance the theater sold 5 times as many lower level tickets as balcony tickets. The theater sold $37,500 in tickets that performance. The money made from mezzanine tickets alone was 4 times the money made from balcony tickets.
Which system of linear equations could be used to solve for the number of each type of ticket sold?

Answer: 25y= 60x

190x +25y= 37500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of balcony tickets.

then, Number of lower level tickets  = 5x

Let y = Number of mezzanine tickets

Money made from ,

balcony tickets = 15x

lower level tickets = 35 (5x) = 175 x

mezzanine tickets = 25y

Money made from mezzanine tickets=  4 x( money made from balcony tickets.)

⇒ 25y = 4 (15x)

⇒ 25y= 60x              (i)

Also, total cost of the tickets = 15x+175x+25y = 37500

⇒ 190x +25y= 37500          (ii)

From (i) and (ii), the system of linear equations could be used to solve for the number of each type of ticket sold:

25y= 60x

190x +25y= 37500

inessss [21]

Answer: |p-72% |≤ 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion.

The absolute inequality about p using an absolute value inequality.:

|p-\hat{p}| \leq E , where E = margin of error, \hat{p} = sample proportion

Given:  A poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% .

|p-72% |≤ 4%

⇒    72% - 4% ≤ p ≤ 72% +4%

⇒  68%  ≤ p ≤  76%.

i.e. p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (.

A mouse traveled a total distance of 3/24 of a mile in a maze over the past three hours the mouse travel the same distance each
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Total distance mouse traveled in 3 hours = \frac{3}{24} of a mile

The mouse traveled the same distance in each hour. So in order to find the distance covered in 1 hour we have to divide the distance covered in 3 hours by 3. This will give us the distance that the mouse traveled in one hour.

So, the distance traveled in one hour will be = \frac{3}{24} \div 3 = \frac{3}{24} \times \frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{24} of a mile

The error which Matt made was that he divided only the denominator of the expression by 3, this probably was a calculation error.

Correct conclusion will be: Mouse travel 1/24 of a mile each hour

The probability that a person in the United States has type B​+ blood is 12​%. Three unrelated people in the United States are s
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The probability that all three have type B​+ blood is 0.001728

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have type B+ blood, or they do not. The probability of a person having type B+ blood is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

The probability that a person in the United States has type B​+ blood is 12​%.

This means that p = 0.12

Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random.

This means that n = 3

Find the probability that all three have type B​+ blood.

This is P(X = 3).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{0} = 0.001728

The probability that all three have type B​+ blood is 0.001728
