Alright this is gonna be a long one

Lets called child tickets x and adult tickets y 

so x + y should be equal to 159 since they said that the total sum of the tickets is 159 
so thats your first equation : x + y = 159

next form an equation using the prices, 
5.40x + 8.70y = 1079.70

now that you have your two equations, just substitute the first into the second (you could either substitute for x or y by saying x = 159-y or that y=159-x)

Hope this helps.

Two events, X and Y, are independent of each other. P(Y) = 5/6 and P(X and Y) = 1/3. What is P(X) written as a decimal? Round to
Ksenya-84 [330]
For independent events,
P(X ∩ Y) = P(X)* P(Y)
=>
1/3 = P(X)*(5/6)
solve for P(X) =>
P(X) = (1/3)*(6/5) = 2/5 = 0.4

Ann [662]

Answer:

248.96

Step-by-step explanation:

From this regression output we have the MS Residual or mean squared error to be equal to 61983.1

the question requires us to find the standard error of the estimate. The standard error of the estimate can be gotten by finding the square root of the MSE.

\sqrt{61983.1}

= 248.96

the standard error of the estimate = 248.96

thank you!
