Sati [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the price of 1 adult ticket.

Let c be the price of 1 child ticket.

given,

$6a + 2c = 124$

as equation 1,

and

$3a + 5c = 100$

as equation 2.

Now we will solve for a and c using elimination method of simultaneous equations.

Now we multiply equation 2 by 2 to eliminate a and solve for c.

$3a \times 2 + 5c \times 2 = 100 \times 2 \\ 6a + 10c = 200$

This new equation will be equation 3.

Now we will use equation 1 - equation 3 to eliminate a and solve for c.

$(6a - 6a) + (2c - 10c) = 124 - 200 \\ 0 + ( - 8c) = - 76 \\ - 8c = - 76 \\ c = - 76 \div - 8 \\ = 9.5$

Now substitute c into equation 2.

$3a + 5(9.5) = 100 \\ 3a + 47.5 = 100 \\ 3a = 100 - 47.5 \\ 3a = 52.5 \\ a = 52.5 \div 3 \\ = 17.5$

Therefore one adult ticket will cost $17.50 and one child ticket will cost $9.50.

Raoul has to finish a 473-page book in a week. He decides to read the same number of pages each weekday and 30 extra pages on Sa

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

$59$ pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable:

x = number of pages he has to read on a weekday

x + 30 = The number of pages read on Saturday and Sunday

$5x+2(x+30) = 473$

$==> 5x + 2x + 60 = 473$

$==> 7x =413$

$==> x = 59$

Meaning that Raoul has to read 59 pages on Wednesday

statuscvo [17]

Answer: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2016, 1 out of every 5 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books. This means that 2 out of every 10 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books. Also, 3 out of every 15 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books.

Therefore, if there were x people under the age of 50 in 2016, then the number that used a cell phone to read e-books would be

1/5 × x = x/5

If there were approximately 225 million people under the age of 50 in 2016, then the number that were likely to have read an e-book on a cell phone is

225/5 = 45 people.

Trucks that travel on highways have to stop at various locations to be weighed and inspected for safe brakes and light systems.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The reuired probability is 0.756

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of trucks be 'N'

1) Trucks on interstate highway N'= 76% of N =0.76N

2) Truck on intra-state highway N''= 24% of N = 0.24N

i) Number of trucks flagged on intrastate highway = 3.4% of N'' = $\frac{3.4}{100}\times 0.24N=0.00816N$

ii) Number of trucks flagged on interstate highway = 0.7% of N' = $\frac{0.7}{100}\times 0.76N=0.00532N$

Part a)

The probability that the truck is an interstate truck and is not flagged for safety is $P(E)=P_{1}\times (1-P_{2})$

where

$P_{1}$ is the probability that the truck chosen is on interstate

$P_{2}$ is the probability that the truck chosen on interstate is flagged

$\therefore P(E)=0.76\times (1-0.00532)=0.756$
