Answer:the number of children tickets that were sold is 30.

the number of adult tickets that were sold is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

The movie theater sells a total of 100 tickets. This means that

x + y = 100

The theater charges $6 per child's ticket and $10 per adult's ticket. The movie theater made a total of $880. It means that

6x + 10y = 880 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 100 - y into equation 2, it becomes

6(100 - y) + 10y = 880

600 - 6y + 10y = 880

- 6y + 10y = 880 - 600

4y = 280

y = 280/4 = 70

x = 100 - y = 100 - 70

x = 30

Solve (x +9)2 = 25.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

x =  - 4 \: or \: x =  - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation

(x + 9) {}^{2}  = 25

and we are asked to apply the square root property of equality to our given a equation and isolate the variable

First, take the square root of both sides of our equation

\sqrt{(x + 9) {}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{25}

x + 9 =  \: 15

x + 9 = 5 \: or \: x + 9 =  - 5

x + 9 - 9 = 5 - 9 \: or \: x + 9 - 9 =  - 5 - 9

x =  - 4 \: or \: x =  - 14

<em>THEREFORE, THERE ARE TWO SOLUTIONS FOR OUR GIVEN EQUATION</em>

<em>x + 9 = 5 \: then \: x =  - 4. \\ x + 9 =  - 5 \: then \: x =  - 14</em>

<u><em>PLEASE</em><em> </em><em>MAKR</em><em> </em><em>ME</em><em> </em><em>BRAINLIEST</em><em> </em><em>IF</em><em> </em><em>YOU</em><em> </em><em>ARE</em><em> </em><em>HAPPY</em><em> </em><em>WITH</em><em> </em><em>THE</em><em> </em><em>ANSWER</em></u>

A college statistics class at a nearby university has 1,000 students enrolled in it. On a recent exam, the mean score was 75% wi
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

38.11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (μ) = 75, standard deviation (σ) = 5

Z score is a measure in statistics to determine the variation of a raw score from the mean. It is given by the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

To calculate the percentage of students scored between a 73 and 78 (C grade), we need to find the z score for 73 and then for 78.

For x = 73, the z score is:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{73-75}{5} =-0.4

For x = 78, the z score is:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{78-75}{5} =0.6

From the probability distribution table:

P(73 < x < 78) = P(-0.4 < z < 0.6) = P(z < 0.6) - P(z < -0.4) = 0.7257 - 0.3446 = 0.3811 = 38.11%
