a concert promoter sold 475 tickets to a rock concert the ticket prices for different seat locations were 10 15 and 20 the total

income from the concert was 6300 if the combined number of 10 15 tickets sold was 4 times the number of 20 tickets sold how many 10 tickets were sold

282.5 of 10 tickets were sold in the rock concert by the promoter

<h3>How to determine the number of 10 tickets?</h3>

To do this, we make use of the following representations:

  • x represents the 10 tickets
  • y represents the 15 tickets
  • z represents the 20 tickets

The 475 tickets that were sold means that:

x + y + z = 475

The income means that:

10x + 15y + 20z = 6300

Also, we have:

10y = 4z

Divide both sides by 10

y = 0.4z

Substitute y = 0.4z in 10x + 15y + 20z = 6300

10x + 15*0.4z + 20z = 6300

10x + 6z + 20z = 6300

Evaluate the like terms

10x + 26z = 6300

Substitute y = 0.4z in x + y + z = 475

x + 0.4z + z = 475

Evaluate the like terms

x + 1.4z = 475

Make x the subject

x = 475 - 1.4z

Substitute x = 475 - 1.4z in 10x + 26z = 6300

10(475 - 1.4z) + 26z = 6300

Expand

4750 - 14z + 26z = 6400

Evaluate the like terms

12z = 1650

Divide both sides by 12

z = 137.5

Substitute z = 137.5 in x = 475 - 1.4z

x = 475 - 1.4 * 137.5

Evaluate

x = 282.5

Hence, 282.5 of 10 tickets were sold

A 5-card hand is dealt from a perfectly shuffled deck. Define the events: A: the hand is a four of a kind (all four cards of one
TiliK225 [7]

In a hand of 5 cards, you want 4 of them to be of the same rank, and the fifth can be any of the remaining 48 cards. So if the rank of the 4-of-a-kind is fixed, there are \binom44\binom{48}1=48 possible hands. To account for any choice of rank, we choose 1 of the 13 possible ranks and multiply this count by \binom{13}1=13. So there are 624 possible hands containing a 4-of-a-kind. Hence A occurs with probability

\dfrac{\binom{13}1\binom44\binom{48}1}{\binom{52}5}=\dfrac{624}{2,598,960}\approx0.00024

There are 4 aces in the deck. If exactly 1 occurs in the hand, the remaining 4 cards can be any of the remaining 48 non-ace cards, contributing \binom41\binom{48}4=778,320 possible hands. Exactly 2 aces are drawn in \binom42\binom{48}3=103,776 hands. And so on. This gives a total of

\displaystyle\sum_{a=1}^4\binom4a\binom{48}{5-a}=886,656

possible hands containing at least 1 ace, and hence B occurs with probability

\dfrac{\sum\limits_{a=1}^4\binom4a\binom{48}{5-a}}{\binom{52}5}=\dfrac{18,472}{54,145}\approx0.3412

The product of these probability is approximately 0.000082.

A and B are independent if the probability of both events occurring simultaneously is the same as the above probability, i.e. P(A\cap B)=P(A)P(B). This happens if

  • the hand has 4 aces and 1 non-ace, or
  • the hand has a non-ace 4-of-a-kind and 1 ace

The above "sub-events" are mutually exclusive and share no overlap. There are 48 possible non-aces to choose from, so the first sub-event consists of 48 possible hands. There are 12 non-ace 4-of-a-kinds and 4 choices of ace for the fifth card, so the second sub-event has a total of 12*4 = 48 possible hands. So A\cap B consists of 96 possible hands, which occurs with probability

\dfrac{96}{\binom{52}5}\approx0.0000369

and so the events A and B are NOT independent.

How to calculate the distance for graphs?
ollegr [7]

Answer:

\sqrt{(x1-x2)^{2}+(y1-y2)^{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the distance formula for cartesian coordinate systems, or your typical xy graph. If given two points to find the distance between, you can assign '1' or '2' to the points, i.e. (1,1) and (2,2) could be: (1,1) is (x1,y1) and (2,2) is (x2,y2). It doesn't matter which point is 1 or 2. If we were to use those example points in this formula, we would have:

\sqrt{(1-2)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}

We can simplify and come up with:

\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}

=\sqrt{2}

We must remember that square roots can be positive OR negative, HOWEVER, because you are looking for a distance it must be positive \sqrt{2}.

Hope this helped!

3/4x + 11 &lt; .3x + 3/4<br><br>Solve inequality. pls
Rashid [163]
<span><span><span><span>3/4</span>x</span>+11 </span>< <span><span>0.3x</span>+<span>3/4
</span></span></span>First turn 3/4 from both sides to decimals to get..
.75x+11 < 0.3x+.75
And then subtract 0.3x from both sides to get 
.45x+11 < .75
And then subtract 11 from both sides to get
.45x < -10.25
And then divide both sides by .45x to get
x < -22.77777778
