a=16

Step-by-step explanation:

10/a=15/24, a≠0

10/a=5/8

A = 16. How did I get this? Well, 15/24 is a reducible fraction itself. When reducing the fraction 15/24, we divide the numerator and denominator by 3 to get 5/8. Now that we have 5/8 as our simplified fraction, the expression is:

10/a = 5/8

Because 10 divided by 2 equals 5, we could multiply 8 by 2 to get what our denominator that is missing would be. 8 x 2 = 16, so a = 16. 10/16 = 15/24.

Your final answer: a = 16

The histogram shows the duration, in minutes, of movies in theaters.
neonofarm [45]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

The median is less than the mean.

Explanation:

This histogram is skewed right; the data "peaks" further to the left than the center.

If a histogram is skewed right, the mean is greater than the median.

This is because skewed-right data have a few large values that increase the mean but do not affect where the exact middle of the data is.

At a regional soccer​ tournament, tickets for two adults and seven students cost ​$60. Tickets for three adults and eleven stude
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The price of an adult ticket is $9 and the price of a student ticket is $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where x is the price of an adult ticket and y is the price of a student ticket:

2x + 7y = 60

3x + 11y = 93

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2, to cancel out the x terms:

6x + 21y = 180

-6x - 22y = -186

Add them together:

-y = -6

y = 6

Then, plug in 6 as y into one of the equations to solve for x:

2x + 7y = 60

2x + 7(6) = 60

2x + 42 = 60

2x = 18

x = 9

So, the price of an adult ticket is $9 and the price of a student ticket is $6
