Are the ratios 1:4 and 3:10 equivalent?
1 answer:
these ratios are not equivalent . Please consult "Explanation" for more details
We can write the ratios 1 : 4 and 3 : 10 as fractions :
and
Put the fractions together :
Both fractions are in their simplest form ; the numerator and denominator do not have any common factors , except 1 , and there's no point in dividing by 1.

Answer:
- 25000 seats in section A
- 14100 seats in sectin B
- 10900 seats in section C
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you half the total number of seats are in section A, so you already know that there are 25000 A seats. The revenue from those seats is
... 25000×$25 = $625,000
so the revenue from B and C seats must total
... $1,070,500 - 625,000 = $445,500
If all 25000 of the B/C seats were C seats, the revenue would be
... 25000×$15 = $375,000
The actual revenue from those seats is $445,500 -375,000 = $70,500 more than that. We know each B seat generates $5 more revenue, so there must be ...
... $70,500/$5 = 14,100 . . . . B seats
Then the balance of the 25000 B and C seats are C seats:
... 25,000 - 14,100 = 10,900 . . . . C seats

<em>Alternate Solution Method</em>
The new Brainly answer format requires the answer be supplied before the working. In order to find the answer quickly so that I can fill in that section, I used a matrix method for solving the problem. The problem equations can be written ...
- a + b + c = 50000
- a - b - c = 0
- 25a + 20b + 15c = 1070500
so the augmented matrix is ...
A graphing calculator can be used to find the solution to this, generally using a function that produces the reduced row-echelon form. The attachment shows the solution using a TI-84 calculator.

<em>Comment on the Working</em>
Since the number of A seats is equal to the total of B and C seats, the number of A seats must be half the total number of stadium seats. Having figured that out, the problem is reduced to one of finding the mix of B and C seats that will produce the remaining revenue.
As with many mixture problems, it is convenient to look at differences. Start with the assumption that all of the desired revenue comes from the least contributor. Here, that is C seats. Then figure the difference that using a B seat makes ($20 -15 = $5) and the difference of the actual revenue and the amount that you got by assuming all C seats: 445,500 -375,000 = 70,500. Since replacing a C seat by a B seat adds $5 to the revenue, it is easy to figure the number of such replacements required in order to raise the revenue by $70,500.
If you write the equation for B seats, you find the solution to the equation mirrors this verbal description:
... 20b + 15(25000-b) = 445,500
... 5b = 445,500 - 375000 . . . . simplify, subtract 375000
... b = 70500/5 = 14100
Answer:
Check the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have to first of all carry out dependent sample t test. consequently wore goggles first was selected at random for the reason that the reaction time in an emergency taken with goggles would be greater than the amount of reaction time in an emergency taken with not so weakened vision. So that we will get the positive differences d = impaired - normal
b)
To find 95% confidence interval first we need to find sample mean and sample sd for difference d = impaired minus normal.
We can find it using excel that is in the first attached image below,
Therefore sample mean = 0.98
Sample sd = 0.3788
To find 95% Confidence interval we can use TI-84 calculator,
Press STAT ----> Scroll to TESTS ---- > Scroll down to 8: T Interval and hit enter.
Kindly check the attached image below.
Therefore we are 95% confident that mean difference in braking time with impaired vision and normal vision is between ( 0.6888 , 1.2712)
Conclusion : As both values in the interval are greater than 0 , mean difference impaired minus normal is not equal to 0
There is significant evidence that there is a difference in braking time with impaired vision and normal vision at 95% confidence level .
