Answer: 280

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

                  Quantity   X    Cost    =  Money Received

Adult:               x                   3                   3x          

Children:       500-x              2            2(500 - x) = 1000 - 2x


Adult = Children + 400

  3x   =  1000 - 2x + 400

  3x   =   1400 - 2x

  5x   =   1400

    x    =    280

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Tuesday's Z-score is 7.56

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a department store, on average, has daily sales of 28,651.79 and the standard deviation of sales is $1000.

Also, it is given that on Tuesday, the store sold $36,211.08 worth of goods.

Let X = Daily sales of goods

So, X ~ N(\mu = 28,651.79, \sigma^{2} =1000^{2})

The z-score probability distribution is given by;

        Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ standard normal N(0,1)

Now, Tuesday,s Z-score is given by;

      Z = \frac{36,211.08-28,651.79}{1000} = 7.56

Yes, Tuesday was an unusually good day as on this day more worth of sales takes place as compared to the average daily sales of $28,651.79 .

The length of a rectangle is 2 units more than the width. The area of the rectangle is 48 units. What is the width, in units, of
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A = lw

l = w + 2

48 = lw

48 = (w + 2)w

48 = w² + 2w

0 = w² + 2w - 48

Quadratic equation results =

w = 6 or w = -8

But the measure could not be negative, therefore w = 6
