Answer: 76 child tickets were sold that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to set up a system of equations.

Let be "c" the number of child tickets sold that Wednesday and "a" the number of adult tickets sold that Wednesday.

Then:

\left \{ {{a+c=173} \atop {9.40a+5.70c=1345.0}} \right.

Using the Method of Elimination, you can multiply the first equation by -9.40, then add both equations and finally solve for "c":

\left \{ {{-9.40a-9.40c=-1626.2} \atop {9.40a+5.70=1345.0}} \right.\\..................................\\-3.7c=-281.2\\\\c=\frac{-281.2}{-3.7}\\\\c=76

There are 12 red pens, 20 blue pens and 5 black pens in a bag. What is the probability that you will pick a black pen? Round
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The probability of getting a black pen from the bag is 13.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the percentage probability that a black pen will be obtained from the bag, the following calculation must be performed:

12 + 20 + 5 = 37

37 = 100%

5 = X

(5 x 100) / 37 = X

500/37 = X

13.5 = X

Thus, it is determined that the totality of pens is 100%, and through a cross multiplication the percentage of the 5 black pens with respect to the total of pens is obtained.

Therefore, the probability of getting a black pen from the bag is 13.5%.

Answer:

  3×5×53

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use divisibility rules to find the small prime factors.

The number ends in 5, so is divisible by 5.

  795/5 = 159

The sum of digits is 1+5+9 = 15; 1+5 = 6, a number divisible by 3, so 3 is a factor.

  159/3 = 53 . . . . . a prime number,* so we're done.

795 = 3×5×53

_____

* If this were not prime, it would be divisible by a prime less than its square root. √53 ≈ 7.3. We know it is not divisible by 2, 3, or 5. We also know the closest multiples of 7 are 49 and 56, so it is not divisible by 7. Hence 53 is prime.
