Answer:

Y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day of ticket sales the school <em><u>sold 3 </u></em>adult ticket and <em><u>8 student </u></em>tickets for a <em><u>total of $72</u></em>. The school took in <em><u>$152</u></em> on the second day by selling<em><u> 7 adult tickets and 16 student tickets.</u></em> How much is a student ticket?  

Day 1: 3x + 7y = 72

Day 2: 7x + 16y = 152

This becomes a system of equations.

3x+8y=72

3x+8y+−8y=72+−8y (Add -8y to both sides)

3x=−8y+72

3x/3 =  −(8y+72)/3

X = (-8/3) y + 24

Substitute  (-8/3) y + 24 for x in7x+16y=152:

7(-8/3 y + 24) + 16y = 152

-8/3 y + 168 = 152 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

-8/3 y + 168 − 168 = 152 + (−168) (Add -168 to both sides)

-8/3 y = -16

(-8/3 y)/(-8/3 y) = -16/ -8/3 y (Divide both sides by (-8)/3)

<u><em>y = 6</em></u>

<em>If you wanted to keep going...</em>

Substitute 6f or y in x = (-8/3) y + 24

(-8/3) y + 24  =  (-8/3) (6) + 24

SImplify: x = 8

<em>X = 8 and </em><u><em>Y = 6</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Hope this helps! <em>♥</em>

Consider a sample with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100. What are the z-scores for the following data values: 560,
julsineya [31]

Answer:

z-score for value 560 = 0.6

z-score for value 650 = 1.5

z-score for value 500 = 0

z-score for value 450 = -0.5

z-score for value 300 = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a sample with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.

i.e., \mu = 500 and \sigma = 100

The z score distribution is given by;

              Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)

where X represents the data values;

  • So, z score for value 560 is;

                 z score = \frac{560-500}{100} = 0.6

  • So, z score for value 650 is;

                 z score = \frac{650-500}{100} = 1.5

  • So, z score for value 500 is;

                 z score = \frac{500-500}{100} = 0

  • So, z score for value 450 is;

                 z score = \frac{450-500}{100} = -0.5

  • So, z score for value 300 is;

                 z score = \frac{300-500}{100} = -2

The double number line shows that 444 bottles of water cost 101010 dollars at a music festival. Based on the ratio shown in the
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Please see the attachment for double number line.

Explanation:

We are given cost of 4 water bottles is $10

We can write ,

Cost of 4 bottles = $10

Cost of 1 bottle = $2.5

Cost of 2 bottles =$5

Cost of 3 bottles = 3\times 2.5 = $7.5

Cost of n bottles = $2.5n

Now we draw the double number line.

Bottom line(Line 1)  will take as number of bottles:  

1   2   3   4   5   6  

Above line (Line 2) will show the cost of corresponding number of bottles:

2.5  5  7.5  10  12.5  15

A 10-sided fair die, a 20-sided fair die, and a 12-sided fair dice are rolled. What is the probability of all three happening: S
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

0.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of faces of each die what it indicates is the total number of events.

On the first die, it has 10 sides and an 8 must come out, that is, 1 event out of 10 possible, therefore the probability is:

1/10

On the second die, which has 20 sides, 19 or 20 can come out, that is 2 events out of 20 possible, so the probability is:

2/20

And on the third die, which is 12 sides, they tell us that an odd number can come out, the odd numbers would be 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11; that is, 6 events out of 12 possible, the probability would be:

6/12

Now the final probability would be the product of all:

(1/10) * (2/20) * (6/12) = 0.005

In other words, the probability of this happening is 0.5%
