she sells 6adult tickets and 5 children tickets on the first day totaling $112.50 and on the second day she sells 8adult tickets

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Cost of adult ticket = $12.5

Cost of child ticket = $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of 6 adult ticket and 5 child ticket = $112.5

Cost of 8 adult ticket and 4 child ticket = $130

Find:

Equation and solution

Computation:

Assume;

Cost of adult ticket = a

Cost of child ticket = b

So,

6a + 5b = 112.5....eq1

8a + 4b = 130 ......eq2

Eq2 x 1.25

10a + 5b = 162.5 .....eq3

eq3 - eq1

4a = 50

Cost of adult ticket = $12.5

8a + 4b = 130

8(12.5) + 4b = 130

Cost of child ticket = $7.5

Find the probability of getting four consecutive aces when four cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 p

posledela

Answer:

<em>P=0.0000037</em>

<em>P=0.00037%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Probability</u>

A standard deck of 52 playing cards has 4 aces.

The probability of getting one of those aces is

$\displaystyle \frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}$

Now we got an ace, there are 3 more aces out of 51 cards.

The probability of getting one of those aces is

$\displaystyle \frac{3}{51}=\frac{1}{17}$

Now we have 2 aces out of 50 cards.

The probability of getting one of those aces is

$\displaystyle \frac{2}{50}=\frac{1}{25}$

Finally, the probability of getting the remaining ace out of the 49 cards is:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{49}$

The probability of getting the four consecutive aces is the product of the above-calculated probabilities:

$\displaystyle P= \frac{1}{13}\cdot\frac{1}{17}\cdot\frac{1}{27}\cdot\frac{1}{49}$

$\displaystyle P= \frac{1}{270,725}$

P=0.0000037

P=0.00037%
