Cost per ticket for the rides = $1.50.

a) Let us assume the number of ride tickets = x.

Total cost of x number of rides = y.

Total amount spent = $48.75.

Amount spent on 20 tickets = 20 × 1.50 = $30

<em>Fair admission charge = Total amount spent - Amount spent on 20 tickets</em>

Let us apply slope-intercept form y=mx+b to get the equation.

Total cost of x number of tickets at the rate $1.50 each ticket = 1.50x.

To<em>tal cost of fair = Total cost of x number of tickets + Fair admission charge.</em>

Find x so that (x,-14) is a solution to 2x+3y=12

Monica [59]

Answer:

Question:

Find $x$ so that $(x,-14)$ is a solution to $2x+3y=12$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are asked to replace $y$ with -14 and solve for $x$ in the equation:

$2x+3y=12$ .

$2x+3y=12$ with $y=-14$ :

$2x+3(-14)=12$

$2x-42=12$

Add 42 on both sides:

$2x=54$

Divide both sides by 2:

$x=27$ .

So the $x$ -coordinate that corresponding to $y=-14$ is $27$ .

Verify that:

$(27,-14)$ is a point satisfying $2x+3y=12$ .

Replace $x$ with 27 and $y$ with -14:

$2(27)+3(-14)=12$

$54+-42=12$

$12=12$ is true so our work must be right.

18 divided by (1+5)(4-2)

crimeas [40]

Answer:

= 3/2

$= \frac{18}{(1 + 5)(4 - 2)}$

$= \frac{18}{(6)(2)}$

$= \frac{18}{12}$

Simplify the fraction.

$= \frac{3}{2}$

Given that P(A)=0.5 and p(AUB)=0.6 find the P(B) if P(A/B) =0.4?

Yuki888 [10]

First we have to find p(AnB)
P(A/B)=p(AnB)/p(A)
P(AnB)=p(A) x p(A/B)
P(AnB)=0.5 x 0.4 = 0.2
Then to find p(B)
P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

P(A∪B) = 0.5+p(B)-0.2
0.6=0.3+p(B)
P(B)=0.6-0.3=0.3
