100 tickets were sold.
The total amount of the tickets sold is = 5 * 100 = $500. 
First prize given = $100
Second prize worth = $20 * 5 = $100
Total worth of prize + $100 + $100 = $200.
Net amount of tickets sold = $500 - $200 = $300
Expected price of each ticket sold = $300/100 = 3.
Therefore, the real price of each ticket sold is $3.

If RX=4 and XS=9, then XT=<br> And how do you get it?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

XT=6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question is the attached figure

step 1

In the right triangle RST

Applying the Pythagorean theorem

RS^2=RT^2+TS^2

we have

RS=RX+XS=4+9=13\ units ---> by segment addition postulate

substitute

RT^2+TS^2=169  ----> equation A

step 2

In the right triangle RTX

Applying the Pythagorean theorem

RT^2=RX^2+XT^2

we have

RX=4\ units

substitute

RT^2=4^2+XT^2

RT^2=16+XT^2

XT^2=RT^2-16 ----> equation B

step 3

In the right triangle XTS

Applying the Pythagorean theorem

TS^2=XS^2+XT^2

we have

XS=9\ units

substitute

TS^2=9^2+XT^2

TS^2=81+XT^2

XT^2=TS^2-81 ----> equation C

step 4

equate equation B and equation C

TS^2-81=RT^2-16

TS^2-RT^2=81-16

TS^2-RT^2=65 ----> equation D

step 5

Solve the system

RT^2+TS^2=169 ----> equation A

TS^2-RT^2=65 ----> equation D

Solve by elimination

Adds equation A and equation D

RT^2+TS^2=169\\TS^2-RT^2=65\\---------\\TS^2+TS^2=169+65\\2TS^2=234\\TS^2=117

Find the value of  RT^2

RT^2+117=169\\RT^2=52

step 6

Find the value of XT

equation C

XT^2=117-81\\XT^2=36\\XT=6\ units

Here are the first four terms of a number sequence.
AleksAgata [21]
8,14,20,26

8 to 14 is 6
14 to 20 is 6
20 to 26 is 6


The next term will be 26 + 6 = 32

Because there is a gap of 6 between each number

60 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!!!
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting values of x in equation

Y = 4(-3) - 4

= - 12 - 4 = - 16

Y = 4(-2) - 4

= - 8 - 4 = - 12

Y = 4(-1) - 4

= - 4 - 4 = - 8

Y = 4(0) - 4

= 0 - 4 = - 4

Y = 4(1) - 4

= 4 - 4 = 0

Y = 4(2) - 4

= 8 - 4 = 4

Y = 4(3) - 4

= 12 - 4 = 8
