Mr and Mrs Smith buy tickets for themselves and their four children.
Aneli [31]
The cost of an adult ticket is £6 more than that of a child ticket, so will be denoted by c+6. Now, we are told that the cost of four child tickets and two adult tickets is £40.50, so we can put this in an equation and solve for c:
(c+6)+(c+6)+c+c+c+c=40.50
6c+12=40.50
6c=28.50
c=4.75
Therefore the cost of a child's ticket (c) is £4.75 and the cost of an adult ticket (c+6) is £10.75.

The height of the smaller can would need to be 12.8 cm.

First find the volume of the larger can of paint.  The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula
V=πr²h

Using the dimensions of the larger can, we have
V = 3.14(8²)(20) = 4019.2

Since he has 1/4 of this can, divide the volume by 4:
4019.2/4 = 1004.8

We will use this as the volume of the smaller can.  Substituting this in along with the radius of the smaller can (using the same volume formula), we have:
1004.8 = 3.14(5²)h
1004.8 = 78.5h

Divide both sides by 78.5:
1004.8/78.5 = 78.5h/78.5
12.8 = h

kvasek [131]

Answer:

(a) 0.932

(b) 0.0653

(c) 0.032

(d) 0.316

(e) 0.251

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table with mean parameter μ = 5, we can compute the following cumulative and density probability

(a) P(X \leq 8) = 0.932 (cumulative)

(b) P(X = 8) = 0.0653 (density)

(c) P(9 \leq X) = 1 - P(X \leq 9) = 1 - 0.968 = 0.032 (cumulative)

(d) P(5 \leq X \leq 8) = P(X \leq 8) - P(X \leq 5) = 0.932 - 0.616 = 0.316 (cumulative)

(e) P(5 < X < 8) = P(X \leq 8) - P(X \leq 5) - P(X = 8) = 0.932 - 0.616 - 0.0653 = 0.251
