Answer:

1100 field-side tickets and 4500 end-zone tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of field side tickets and y represent number of end-zone tickets.

We have been given that the total number of people at a football game was 5600. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$x+y=5600...(1)$

$y=5600-x...(1)$

We are also told that Field-side tickets were 40 dollars and end-zone tickets were 20 dollars.

Cost of x field side tickets would be $40x$ and cost of y end-zone tickets would be $20y$ .

The total amount of money received for the tickets was $134000. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$40x+20y=134000...(2)$

Upon substituting equation (1) in equation (2), we will get:

$40x+20(5600-x)=134000$

$40x+112000-20x=134000$

$20x+112000=134000$

$20x+112000-112000=134000-112000$

$20x=22000$

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{22000}{20}$

$x=1100$

Therefore, 1100 field side tickets were sold.

Upon substituting $x=1100$ in equation (1), we will get:

$y=5600-1100$

$y=4500$

Therefore, 4500 end-zone tickets were sold.

A saleswoman earns 20% commision on all the merchandise that she sells. Last month she sold $900 worth of merchandise. How much

KengaRu [80]

Given:

Last month sales = $900

Rate of commission = 20%

To find:

How much commission (in dollars) did she earn last month?

Solution:

We have, 20% rate of commission. So, the commission for the last month is equal to 20% of last month sales $900.

$\text{Commission}=\dfrac{20}{100}\times 900$

$\text{Commission}=20\times 9$

$\text{Commission}=180$

Therefore, the commission for the last month is $180.

In an analysis of healthcare data, ages have been rounded to the nearest multiple of 5 years. The difference between the true ag

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. 0.77

Step-by-step explanation:

$X_i \text{ is the difference between true and reported age. where i = 1,2,3......48 }\\\text{The rounded age are uniformly distributed. So, }X_i = 0\\\\and,\thinspace O_{X_i}^2=\frac{\text{(Upper Bound - Lower Bound})^2}{5\times 2.5\text{ ( Rounded value )}}\\\\O_{X_i}^2=\frac{(2.5 + 2.5)^2}{12}\approx 2.083\\\\O_X_i=1.443$

$\bar{X_{48}}=\frac{X_1+X_2+.......+X_{48}}{48}\\\\\bar{X_{48}}=\frac{\frac{48}{X_i}}{48}=0\\\\O_{\bar{X}_{48}}^2=\frac{48\cdot O_{X_i}^2}{48^2}=\frac{O_{X_i}^2}{48}\\\\\text{So, }\bar{X_i}\text{is approximately normal with mean 0 and standard deviation = }\\\\\frac{1.443}{\sqrt{48}}\approx 0.2083$

$=Pr[\frac{-1}{4}\leq \bar{X}_{48}\leq \frac{1}{4}]\\\\=Pr[\frac{-0.25}{0.2083}\leq Z\leq \frac{0.25}{0.2083}]\\\\=Pr[-1.2\leq Z\leq 1.2]\\=Pr(Z\leq 1.2)-Pr(Z\leq -1.2)\\=Pr(Z\leq 1.2)-(1-Pr(Z\leq 1.2))\\=2\times 0.8849 -1\text{ ( Z value for 1.2 is 0.8849 )}\\\approx 0.77$

Hence, the correct answer is 0.77
