Mathematics

There were 37 student tickets and 52 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of student tickets and y be the adult tickets

Then

According to given statement that total 89 tickets were sold

x+y=89     Eqn 1

And

$5 for an adult ticket and $3 for student ticket ,and total cost $371

3x+5y=371    Eqn 2

From eqn 1

x=89-y

Putting in eqn 2

3(89-y)+5y=371\\267-3y+5y=371\\267+2y=371

Subtracting 267 from both sides

267+2y-267=371-267\\2y=104

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{104}{2}\\y=52

Putting y=52 in eqn 1

x+52=89\\x=89-52\\x=37

Hence,

There were 37 student tickets and 52 adult tickets

Ilya [14]

Answer:

a₁ = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AP, where:

  • 8a₈ = 12a₁₂
  • d = -2,
  • a₁ = ?

=============

<h3>Solution</h3>

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

  • a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
  • a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22

8a₈ = 12a₁₂

  • 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
  • 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
  • 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
  • 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
  • a₁ = 38

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that is parallel to AB and passes through Point X. Show all
DanielleElmas [232]

find y=mx+b for line parallel to AB.

The line that is parallel will have the same slope as line AB:

the slope of line AB is

m=(8-3)/(-10-2)

=5/-12

=-5/12

Since the line going through X is parallel the vertical distance of the new line to AB is the same for all values of the domain(x-axis).

at x=-5 the point X has the y value of 10 which is 4 more than the y value for AB based on the graph.

To find the intercept b of the line going through X that is parallel to AB we just add 4 to the intercept of AB, which is 4 so

4+4=8

A state offers two lottery games, WinOne and PlayBall. Both games cost $2 per ticket.
uysha [10]
In this question, both tickets cost 2$ per ticket.
The answer to this question would be: $0

In WinOne scenario, you need to match a ticket that has to pick from A-J(10 possibilities) and 0-9 (10 possibilities). The chance to win would be: 1/10* 1/10= 1/100

The expected value must be:
E= chance to win * win amount - ticket price
E= 1//100*$200 - $2= $2-$2= 0
