Answer:

45.75 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 365 days in a regular year. A leap year adds 1 more day so there are 366 days in a year.

Drinking 1 pint a day will result in 366 pints in a leap year.

To find the number of gallons, divide 366 / 8 since there are 8 pints in 1 gallon.

366 / 8 = 45.75 gallons

46 gallons!

1 pint x 364 days = 364 pints

1 pint is equal to 0.12500009 gallons

So, 364 x 0.12500009 = 46!

Tickets for seniors prom cost $25 for individual tickets and $40 for couples tickets. They collected a total of 2500 from ticket

quester [9]

Answer: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The cost of an individual ticket is $25

The cost of a couple's ticket is $40

The total sale is $2500

total ticket sold is 70

Suppose there are x individuals and y couples

$\therefore x+y=70\quad \ldots(i)\\\\25x+40y=2500\quad \ldots(ii)\\\text{Solving }(i)\ \text{and}\ (ii)\ \text{we get}$

$x=20,y=50$

So, they sold 20 tickets of the individual.

Find the standard deviation of 21, 31, 26, 24, 28, 26

Vesnalui [34]

Given the dataset

$x = \{21,\ 31,\ 26,\ 24,\ 28,\ 26\}$

We start by computing the average:

$\overline{x} = \dfrac{21+31+26+24+28+26}{6}=\dfrac{156}{6}=26$

We compute the difference bewteen each element and the average:

$x-\overline{x} = \{-6,\ 5,\ 0,\ -2,\ 2,\ 0\}$

We square those differences:

$(x-\overline{x})^2 = \{36,\ 25,\ 0,\ 4,\ 4,\ 0\}$

And take the average of those squared differences: we sum them

$\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^n (x-\overline{x})^2=36+25+4+4+0+0=69$

And we divide by the number of elements:

$\displaystyle \sigma^2=\dfrac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x-\overline{x})^2}{n} = \dfrac{69}{6} = 11.5$

Finally, we take the square root of this quantity and we have the standard deviation:

$\displaystyle\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x-\overline{x})^2}{n}} = \sqrt{11.5}\approx 3.39$

Find the non permissible replacement for y in this expression. y^2/ -3y+9

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a fraction, so a non permited value is one which will create a 0 in the denominator.

-3y + 9 = 0

y = 3
