Answer:
Senior citizen tickets = $9
Student tickets = $11
Step-by-step explanation:
We begin by converting these into simultaneous linear equation;
Senior citizen tickets = a
Student tickets = b
5a + 9b = 144
14a + 6b = 192
5a = 144 - 9b
a = 144/5 - 9b/5
a = 28.8 - 1.8b
We now substitute this into the first equation
14(28.8 - 1.8b) + 6b = 192
403.2 - 25.2b +6b = 192
-19.2b = 192 - 403.2
b = -211.2/-19.2
b = 11
Put the value of b into either equation
5a + 9b = 144
5a + 9(11) = 144
5a +99 = 144
5a = 144-99
5a = 45
a = 9
SOLUTION:
As an equation it is:
y - 3x = 5y + 2x
If you are asking for it as a sentence ( I will do it as a written sentence as I unfortunately can't show you the sentence verbally as you had asked ), then it is as you had written in your question so:
Three times x less than y is five times y plus two times x
Or you could write is as:
y subtracted by three times x is equivalent to the sum of five times y and two times x.
Essentially, even with the small alterations that you can make to the phrasing and sentence structure, the concepts are the same so you can use one of the above answers or alter it as you please.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
The top 20% of the students will score at least 2.1 points above the mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
The mean of a certain test is 14 and the standard deviation is 2.5.
This means that 
The top 20% of the students will score how many points above the mean
Their score is the 100 - 20 = 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.
Their score is:
16.1 - 14 = 2.1
The top 20% of the students will score at least 2.1 points above the mean.
Answer:
B. 9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
area = side^2
side^2 = 84
side = sqrt(84)
side = 9.2 ft
Each side of a wall measures 9.2 ft.
X * .65 = 143
Divide both sides by .65.
x = 220
143 is 65% of 220.
