I need some help with this question:  The MoviePlex theater sold 1,456 tickets.  The theater sold 6 times as many regular price

tickets as it sold discount tickets.  Earl says that the expression 1456 divided by 6 give the number of discount tickets.  Is Earl correct?  If not, write the correct expression.  Explain your answer.

Earl isn't correct: the number 1,456 represents the total number of tickets sold, rather than simply six times the number of tickets sold.

Let x= the discount ticket price

1456 = 6x + x
1456 = 7x
x = 28

28 discount tickets were sold. The total number of tickets sold is equal to both the number of discount tickets sold plus six times that number: 1,456 = 6x+ x. Solve for x.

Given the information in the picture, which trigonometric identity can be used to solve for the height of the blue ladder that i
Stells [14]

The trigonometric identity can be used to solve for the height of the blue ladder that is leaning against the building is \rm sin=\dfrac{o}{h}.

We have to determine

Which trigonometric identity can be used to solve for the height of the blue ladder that is leaning against the building?.

<h3>Trigonometric identity</h3>

Trigonometric Identities are the equalities that involve trigonometry functions and hold true for all the values of variables given in the equation.

Trig ratios help us calculate side lengths and interior angles of right triangles:

The trigonometric identity that can be used to solve for the height of the blue ladder is;

\rm Sin47=\dfrac{50}{H}\\\\H=\dfrac{50}{sin47}\\\\H=68 feet

Hence, the trigonometric identity can be used to solve for the height of the blue ladder that is leaning against the building is \rm sin=\dfrac{o}{h}.

Suppose there is a 13.9 % probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is a jogger. In​ addition, there is
Blababa [14]

Answer:

There is a 2.17% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male and jogs.

It would be unusual to randomly select a person aged 40 years or older who is male and jogs.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities.

A 13.9% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is a jogger, so P(A) = 0.13.

In​ addition, there is a 15.6% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male comma given that he or she jogs. I am going to say that P(B) is the probability that is a male. P(B/A) is the probability that the person is a male, given that he/she jogs. So P(B/A) = 0.156

The Bayes theorem states that:

P(B/A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which P(A \cap B) is the probability that the person does both thigs, so, in this problem, the probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male and jogs.

So

P(A \cap B) = P(A).P(B/A) = 0.156*0.139 = 0.217

There is a 2.17% probability that a randomly selected person aged 40 years or older is male and jogs.

A probability is unusual when it is smaller than 5%.

So it would be unusual to randomly select a person aged 40 years or older who is male and jogs.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

7707 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we know that:

the number of tickets sold at the counter on

First day = 1094 tickets

Second day = 1812 tickets

Third day = 2050 tickets

Fourth day = 2751 tickets

The total number of tickets sold on all the four days is calculated as:

(1094 + 1812 + 2050 + 2751)tickets

= 7707 tickets
