The price of each ticket is $42.50. So if Selene buys x tickets, the cost of x tickets will be 42.50x.

She has to pay $5 handling fee as well for purchasing the tickets online. So her total cost of the tickets will be:

Total Cost = 42.50x + 5

Selene got $250. This means she can spend a maximum of $250 on the tickets. Maximum of $250 means less than or equal to $250.

So, we can write the spending on the tickets in the form of following in equality:

42.50x + 5 ≤ 250

42.50x ≤ 245

x ≤ 5.76

This shows, Selene can buy 5.76 tickets. Since the number of tickets has to be a whole number we look for the nearest possible number. She cannot buy 6 tickets, as the cost will exceed $250. So the maximum tickets she can buy are 5.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A

<h3>What is the median of a data-set?</h3>

The median of the data-set separates the bottom half from the upper half, that is, it is the 50th percentile, also called the middle value the data-set, not being affected by outliers.

For this problem, the data-set is given as follows:

7.50, 7.50, 7.75, 7.75, 8.00, 8.00, 8.00, 10.00.

There are 8 scores, hence the median is the <u>mean of the 4th and the 5th</u> scores, as follows:

(7.75 + 8)/2 = 7.875.

Removing the extreme values, the data-set will be given by:

7.50, 7.75, 7.75, 8.00, 8.00, 8.00.

Then it has 6 scores, hence the median is the <u>mean of the 3th and the 4th</u> scores, as follows:

(7.75 + 8)/2 = 7.875.

Same median, hence the correct option is:

Her median score does not change.

Using the unit circle find the exact value. CSC -30º =​
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

csc (- 30)° = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric relationship

csc x = \frac{1}{sinx} and the exact value sin30° = \frac{1}{2}

sin(- 30)° = - sin30° = - \frac{1}{2}, thus

csc (- 30)° = \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} } = - 2

Two people bought gas. Each gallon of gas cost the same amount. The money that they spent, in dollars, is represented by the exp
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Cost =$3

Amount = 8 gallons and 17 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

24 + 51

Required

Simplify to show the cost and amount of gas bought by each individual

24 + 51

[Factorize]

3(8 + 17)

The above can't be factored any further.

Since the cost of gas for both individuals is the same, we can conclude the following.

Cost = $3

This is so because it applies to both numbers in brackets

Amount of Gas = 8 gallons and 17 gallons respectively by both individuals
